I do not actually get the comparison. You do not have to decide whether you change your diet or donate money to animal charities, you can actually do both of it.
Additionally, you did not consider, that changing your diet has an impact on other people who see that you went vegan and it might make them vegan as well.
Apart from the fact, that it seems unlogic to donate for a charity which aims to reduce animal suffering and at the same time buying products which cause the exact suffering seems wrong.
It is like deciding between donating to AMF and at the same time as it brings pleasure for you to destroy all the distributed nets cause it brings you joy.
What has not been considered is the huge consequences of the consumption of animal products when it comes to health. Shouldnt EAs live healthy and have a healthy diet in order to not have high healthcare costs in the long run? If I want to live healthy to not have bad living conditions because of diseases I cant prevent them with a healthy diet. It is pretty clear, that for example dairy increases your risk of the main causes of death.
Additionally, the comparison between the cost of dairy and a milk substitute ist just too lazy. When you compare vegan to omnivorous diets, the healthy vegan diet consists of whole grains, fruits and vegetables. These are not only healthier und better for the environment, but they are way cheaper. It is more expensive to buy dairy and chicken instead of buying potatoes and brown rice.
