I agree we need both, but it just feels a little lower priority… like if someone was giving a speech in a room filled with a bunch of starving children and said speaker was preaching about how we needed to “protect animal rights.”
Like they’re not wrong, I guess, but it would seem kind of strange to focus on the welfare of cattle when there was obviously a much more dire situation of “kids starving in the room they’re in” that maybe should be the initial target of focus before someone talks about the ethics of free range vs organic food production.

They’re not really the same group so both can happen at the same time, and they would help each other.
