I mean vegans are welcome to be vegan. If you want you can mention these things if you think they might matter to someone but in the end what is important to a vegan isn't going to be important to other people and that's fine. In the end suffering is life and we all are made to suffer so that someone else can exploit us. The only difference with meat is that it's nutritious and something our body makes good use of. Humans on the other hand are exploited so that the privileged can continue to be privileged.
