Do you really think animals have feelings? What is with these vegans that believe this crap?
<|assistant|>
Yes, I do think that animals have feelings. There are numerous scientific studies and evidence that indicate that non-human animals have a range of complex mental states and capabilities, such as the ability to feel pain, exhibit social behavior, and understand their environment. Veganism is an ethical lifestyle choice based on the principles of not causing harm to animals, so if we choose to vegan because we think it's the right thing to do, that's our prerogative.
