I've met plenty of twats who are vegans and so I don't take the label as anything other than what someone chooses to eat or not.
On the odd chance that people's thoughts over the animal kingdom come up I'll happily engage with them and try to find some common ground.
As it is though I think meat is the means to best give people what they need for a full a healthy life, animal products are also required for the same reasons and that they are treated better as livestock than they ever have in the past (Well, at last since cities cropped up).
That all said and done, I do see a future where animals won't be required to fulfil all the requirements of human nutritional health and so there will be less of them and that will bring its own problems. But they will be very different problems then.
Now onto non-vegans, plenty of twats amongst them too

Most animals have a voice. We just don't know what they are saying.

Supermarkets? Is that where food begins for you?
Food begins in an area inhabited by a diverse group of animals, from birds, insects, and rodents, to foxes, badgers, and a host of others. This land is pared back to bare soil, causing the ecosystem to go into shock as every creature that once lived there flees and has to fight to exist on new lands already occupied by other animals.
The farmer proceeds to plant the seeds, and takes proactive measures to keep any animals from returning and eating the crops, also killing billions of insects to ensure they too don't destroy the crops.
Life is a competition. If you don't want to do what's required to win, that's fine, but don't complain when others step up and take all the prizes.
Vegans are invariably socialists, climate change alarmists, feminists, and all the other clueless groups that only exist because they've never had to live in reality.

So it's not only a diet.

Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Ah, you don't even know what the word diet means. Never mind.

I have been vegan for ten years and was veggie for many years before that and I am perfectly healthy.
And veganism isn't a diet.

Good luck getting the circa 60 grams of protein you require, without eating meat. Not to mention you're missing out on iron (no, veg doesn't contain the right iron), omega 3, and a myriad of other essential ingredients needed for a human to be at optimal health.
You've been fed a climate change inspired lie. Veganism is an extreme diet that should never be recommended.

Bizarre logic. This is like saying it's unfair to make murder illegal because it takes away people's right to kill another human.

Maybe in the beginning, but when do you Leftards admit that it's a human being?

Shame Leftists can't take this view when it comes to the rights of innocent, unborn babies.

This is one of the main differences between Conservatives and Leftists. If a Conservative doesn't believe in eating meat, he/she doesn't. If a Leftist believes this, he/she tries to ban it for everyone else.
Shame conservatives can't take this view when it comes to women's rights. Literally taking away the option for woman to have abortions because they don't believe in a woman having the say in what happens to her own body.

Put down the italics ffs

You can advocate for this all you want, but you're just wasting your time. We are omnivores: we eat plants AND meat, and this will never change.

It is not hard to get protein from plants - beans, lentils, soy, seeds, nuts … And the majority of crops that are currently grown are fed to farmed animals rather than to people. All that food grown to plump up cows for your plate could in fact go towards ending human starvation.

I'm sure Bill Gates is currently developing a green gruel we can all live on.
Humans need protein. It's hard to get protein from plants. If everyone stopped eating meat the plants wouldn't cover the global population's protein requirement. There are other such problems with a vegan diet too.
I have no problem eating animals. Food chains are perfectly healthy and ethical, since they exist in nature. Eating cooked meat is part of our evolutionary story and it's thought that the practice is what helped increase our brain size.
I would rather eat rats, mice, squirrels, coyotes, and anything else I could trap or hunt rather than be limited to a vegan diet.

I don't believe in any necessity for humans to eat animals. We have the means and the know-how to eat plant based foods only.

So you're not against eating animals, just the way we farm them?
