EDIT: here's a source for that figure
Previous studies have estimated that 73% of all antimicrobials sold globally are used in animals raised for food

science around veganism is highly exaggerated. Nutrition science is in its infancy and the "best" studies on vegans rely on indisputably and fatally flawed food questionnaires that ask them what they eat once and then just assume they do it for several years:
Vegans aren't even vegan. They frequently cheat on their diet and lie about it.
Self-imposed dieting is linked to binge eating disorder, which makes people forget and misreport about eating the food they crave.
The vast majority of studies favoring vegan diets were conducted on people who reported to consume animal products and by scientists trained at Seventh-day Adventist universities. They have contrasting results when compared to other studies. The publications of researchers like Joan Sabate and Winston Craig (reviewers and authors of the AND position paper, btw) show that they have a strong bias towards confirming their religious beliefs. They brag about their global influence on diet, yet generally don't disclose this conflict of interest. They have pursued people for promoting low-carbohydrate diets.
80-100% of observational studies are proven wrong in controlled trials
Again, stop citing imgur links with no obvious source. You aren't even citing photos of a source half of the itme
Are you going to tell me this photo actually adds anything. It does not support your claim at all of "scientists trained at Seventh-day Adventist universities" besides just repeating it
You are just adding links to gish gallop, not to provide sources
There are RCT studies out there
