Yes quite probably these are some of the answers people might give.
I'm quite curious about "artists" and "(h)aktivists" who seem quite
moral but love dem steaks blue..
Carnism is the invisible belief system, or ideology, that
conditions people to eat certain animals. Carnism is essentially
the opposite of veganism; “carn” means “flesh” or “of the flesh”
and “ism” denotes a belief system. Most people view eating animals
as a given, rather than a choice; in meat-eating cultures around
the world people typically don’t think about why they find the
flesh of some animals disgusting and the flesh of other animals
appetizing, or why they eat any animals at all. But when eating
animals is not a necessity for survival, as is the case in much of
the world today, it is a choice - and choices always stem from
beliefs.

Disassociation of meat from animal. Negative connotation: stupid

but I am interested to know why people still choose to eat meat
nowadays. (you don't need to answer - it's rhetorical)
I just don't get it.
