I'd say it's more about following the money. Most of Republican politics are actually about padding the pockets of those already rich. The crazy part is the culture war they also run to keep some of the poorest on their side.
If you vote red, you are voting for cruelty. If you consume animals and their products, you are still voting red with your money, in addition to your own cruelty.
More blood on the hands of those who refuse to vote to keep all those hysterically greedy, anti-science, anti-reason, anti-humanism republicans OUT of majority power.
