Since the music industry there chains them up and makes them get eye surgery and whips them if they don't get the Aretha Franklin keys right when they're practicing? Is supporting Kpop basically the same as eating meat and supporting the factory farms in the USA?

Undeniably some of the practices and ideals they press are crossing into a type of malpractice, but that's literally Asia itself, not the industry specifically. Unfortunately there's no stopping people's decisions in this department, and just have to see to it that they're trying to leverage the circumstances in their favor - for themselves and their families. Previous artists have branched away from the industry, and spoke out against it. These are choices, albeit not ethically agreeable ones.

I don't think it's wrong to like the performers themselves. A lot of those people put in insane work, and make the conscious decisions to make that living. The type of work ethic and professionalism they build up deserves some credit in all this. With longevity, people like the artists, not the production companies. If anything, people criticize production companies more than praise them.

I don't think it's helpful to generalize Asia like that--comes off as a little prejudice. It's not like the entertainment industry in the West doesn't have problems...

Because humans require real meat to get all of our nutrients and our body is built with the idea of meat in mind. People who dont have any meat in their diets and/or taking synthetic proteins to try to "replicate" that part of their diet are harming themselves in the long run.

TLDR: Humans need meat, get over it.

Well, 1) You are actually debating me so it obviously can be debated. 2) Humans don't need meat--I've met several very healthy vegans

Duncan, stop spreading falsehoods. Humans literally don't need meat, we eat it out of convenience and because it's delicious.

This just isn't true though. Well planned vegetarian diet covers all the nutrients you need.

And to be honest there's always a weird "stones in glass houses" frame of argument used here, because 1) meat eaters don't tend to be concerned about balanced nutrition and don't eat meat out of a nutritional requirement, and 2) meat has many ill health effects when consumed in excess, which most people do

Nope. We're all triple vaxxed and he frequently says how stupid the governors of red states are for removing mask mandates.
