That there is the way of eating much healthier, which is with having a good variety of whole foods from plants, and that's it, should have us think about what is being done with animals and why should it continue.

I dont see how that strengthens your position.

I am not saying plant based is not better for you, I am a vegetarian.
That being said, even if we had two pixels to rub together this chart still wouldn't make any sense. WTF is 90% deaths from heart disease and cancer? 90% of what for what time period?
I looked it up for you, I only have stats for the US. In 2024 Diseases of heart was responsible for 22% of all deaths that year. Cancer was 19%. Not great but also nothing near the 80% claim that is in this chart that covers a unknown timeframe.

Sure Everyone Has Deficiencies and Diseases and that's Actually my Point. I'm not Saying neither it's Good to Eat Meat 3 times a Day lol
Where are Africa and Iceland or the Other Diseases in the Statistics ??
Ecologically or Cruelty Speaking, Veganism Might Worth it but not if you eat Industrial or International Shipped Plant-Based Food.. Imo

Welcome
Welcome to c/vegan@lemmy.world. Broadly, this community is a place to discuss veganism. Discussion on intersectional topics related to the animal rights movement are also encouraged.
What is Veganism?
'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 ...'
— abridged definition from The Vegan Society
Rules
The rules are subject to change, especially upon community feedback.
- Discrimination is not tolerated. This includes speciesism.
- Topics not relating to veganism are subject to removal.
- Posts are to be as accessible as practicable:
- embedded images of text require alt-text
- posts with an image of text should have a transcription in the body or alt-text
- paywalled articles must have an accessible non-paywalled link;
- use the original source whenever possible for a news article.
- Content warnings are required for triggering content.
- Bad-faith carnist rhetoric & anti-veganism are not allowed, as this is not a space to debate the merits of veganism. Anyone is welcome here, however, and so good-faith efforts to ask questions about veganism may be given their own weekly stickied post in the future.
- before jumping into the community, we encourage you to read examples of common fallacies here.
- if you're asking questions about veganism, be mindful that the person on the other end is trying to be helpful by answering you and treat them with at least as much respect as they give you.
- Posts and comments whose contents – text, images, etc. – are largely created by a generative AI model are subject to removal. We want you to be a part of the vegan community, not a multi-head attention layer running on a server farm.
- Posts linking to Twitter/X or any similarly far-right site will be removed.
- No brigading, either off-site or on-site. An incitement to brigade includes two elements: a call to disruptive action and a specific direction outside of this community in which to take that action. Exceptions include:
- Calls to boycott.
- Calls to in-person protest of a government, high-profile individual, or company/organization.
- Votes provided they have a sufficiently broad target audience or provably effective controls against vote brigading.
- Petitions.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service also apply.

Correlation doesn't equal causation. Doing bad science to strengthen likely correct assumptions weakens your point.
Also, pixels.
