May as well not considering willful complicity in their deaths is wrong.

Oh well yes.

If it wasn't obvious I'm a raging vegetarian. Just annoying.

I like honey and saying I'm a vegan while eating honey makes some vegans mad.

Posting pictures like that to vegetarians is like no one likes us.

I'd agree that it's not. What about honey makes you feel like you need it or otherwise that it is somehow different than eating other animal products? If you use it just because you like it, you could argue the same for any other animal product. I'm primarily concerned with their lack of consent, in some cases the clipping of queen bee wings & confinement to a fixed space, & resource theft. There's also the concerns of native bee populations being unable to compete with honey bees.
