Its not really the eating meat part thats the bad bit, its that you have to murder an animal to get the meat. Notice there is no problem with lab meat or plant based meat.
I would hope everyone would aspire to exceed the standard of "does not murder things".
And yes I would argue that someone's morals that allows them to murder anything, is almost always worse than someone's morals that does not allow murdering.
The word you're looking for is, "kill". "Murder" is the killing of one human being by another. Using the word, "murder" ro refer to the killing of an animal is a bad faith attempt to use inappropriate inflammatory language to push your agenda.
Again, it's not murder. It's killing, but it's not murder. If you want to be taken seriously use the correct word.
You're really fixated on murder but it's the wrong word. It's killing. You kill plants when you eat them. You kill bacteria when you wash. Things die. It's part of the cycle of life. Some things die and are consumed by other things.
