Ethical decision of not eating animals or facilitate their captive farming for by-products doesn’t imply an ethical decision to avoid some big corpo. It has almost nothing to do with avoiding food being produced in the same room as non-vegan products, and you could ethically argue, you shouldn’t avoid that. Same goes for substitutes. Most of all, 0.1% of some vegan chocolate bar containing miniscule amount of diary that however could trigger someone’s allergy definitely couldn’t count as an ethical violation of vegan philosophy.
What you describe is some overall lifestyle choice that combines ethical reasoning with superstition. Might apply to a lot of vegans out there, but does not define veganism.
No superstition. This is why most people have trouble being vegan. It requires vigilance and research. It requires being conscious of consumer food products.
Literally everyone replying to my original comment projected their own meaning onto it and are arguing against points I didnt make.
The point was: vegans are more aware of food production practices and what companies make what, then they change their buying habits accordingly. The factory didnt start making dairy products all of a sudden, that would require insane amounts of expensive retrofitting.
