New Vegetarian/Vegan, can anyone debunk my mindset?

For me I’ve watched so many videos, activist videos, interviews, researched the industries that when I see a bottle of dairy milk, I see a cow been forced into a metal crate type of thing, having a human fist or syringe of bull semen forced in her so she can birth a calf that will ultimately be taken from her as soon as it’s born so we can attach nipple pumps to her udders and take the milk, and of course we all know the calf’s fate and the mother’s fate eventually

I see an egg I see a male chick been ground up alive because they are of no commercial value.

If my friends were going out for a meal and there was no vegan option on the menu I’d simply rather not go, and if my friends aren’t supportive of my ethical and moral belief the quite frankly j don’t want to be friends with them.

I understand what you’re saying, a little bit won’t hurt here and there but unfortunately it does, you buying that margarita pizza smothered with cows breast milk adds a sales figure on, or instead you could ask for a vegan pizza (bbq base, roasted veggies for example), a few ppl do that and the restaurant might think let’s put a vegan option on the menu! Buying any animal products is directly contributing to the industries we seek to diminish
