This is how I’ve always felt about it

You could make the same argument with dogs.

That is subjective.

What confuses me the most is that in an ideal vegan society wouldn’t cows cease to exist, or is everyone going to be assigned a cow to take home?
They would live in sanctuaries as their population would dwindle to the point they may cease to exist while we protect the environment of the wild bovines.
Veganism is really small and we are the vanguards of the inheritance of civilization. Our thoughts and philosophy are not mainstream yet. This kind of question is irrelevant and damaging. When the time comes a vegan world would make sanctuaries and stop breeding the cows and they would slowly depopulate. We are hundreds of years from this eventuality and focusing on this kind of stuff is not helpful when people are actively and purposefully brutalizing a trillion animals a year.
Why would they depopulate? If they are permitted to, they will reproduce. There are numerous examples of domesticated populations surviving without people. See literally all wild horses in America.
You are talking about something irrelevant and not currently the reality. This kind of thought process is frankly a waste of time because we can’t even get people to agree killing animals is wrong, why are we going to jump the gun hundreds of years to design a solution that may not be appropriate when the time comes?
The reality is that we sell gallons of bull semen and forcibly impregnate cows by the hundreds of millions cows to keep this system going. This will and must stop. Every single cow is bred currently. Cows are not wild animals. The wild aurochs are gone and the cows are not the same. They require human intervention. In a vegan world they would be in a sanctuary which would manage their populations down by not breeding them and separating bulls.

Yeah, no. It isn’t important. It is completely ridiculous to be stuck on this literally hundreds of years too early. Meat consumption is still going up, why are we going to start planning for something that isn’t going to happen in anyone’s life time? We still need to plan on how to get meat consumption to actually go down. It is jumping the gun and this is sealioning in my opinion.
Change of topic: how do you feel about nuclear power?
Why is this a concern? Is there an issue with a (what I imagine would be a small) wild pulation?
Maybe you should keep the comments about others to yourself. They are what they are and they deserve to be treated with respect. You are not doing this.

I mean calling cows ugly and beastly, I wouldn’t want people commenting that about you, maybe you shouldn’t be denigrating cows
