some people just can’t leave cockroaches alone and live correctly

some people can't be around peanuts. or bees for that matter

And we have to respect the peanuts' right to be everywhere, right?

Peanuts and bees usually don't invade your home. And if they did, some would argue it's acceptable to get rid of them. I'm pretty sure you can figure this out.

some would argue it’s acceptable

some would argue that eating honey is not immoral

edit: also, funny how you bring up "invading homes" while agriculture inherently, necessarily is invading the homes of all sorts of animals. i guess "some would argue that's acceptable" also?

Sure.

The point of going vegetarian or vegan is to aim at a reduction of animal suffering and environmental footprint. Not to starve by choice. Agriculture is still better than more agriculture needed to consume meat.
What's the problem exactly?
