You should though
It's hilarious how lemmy users generally think of themselves as left wing but refuse to admit that veganism is both morally and sustainably the better option
Dietary preferences and choices aren't exclusive to left wing politics.
Veganism isn't so much a "dietary preference" as a way of life that recognizes animals as sentient beings and aims to minimize their suffering as much as possible (i.e. it's not only about not eating them).
That aside: In my experience, giving a shit about the well-being of others, regardless of race or species, isn't exactly common on the political right.
