It seems automatically assumed that if you favour animal rights, you must be a leftist, pacifist,etc, and in demonstrations, protests and politics in general the 2 always go together.
Why?
A lot of leftists deride animal rights and frequently oppose the movement as sentimental, classist or the preserve of the rich (”the poor can’t afford to be vegans,”etc.)
Given that humans generally have largely abused or neglected the animal kingdom, why would one who cares about animal rights also devote themselves to bettering humanity?
Words like “conservative” or “right wing” are also frequently usd as metaphors for the hard-hearted or uncaring. What are the exceptions to this rule, in the case of animal rights?

By “right wing,” I do not mean fascism, extremism or racism. And Hitler being or not being vegetarian is irrelvant.

growing up i pretty much ate anything. however, after decreasing my meat (especially red meat) intake and increasing my vegetable intake for a prolonged period, my body started to change seemingly for the worse. i stopped having my period and lost my bowel movements. also i felt less energized. in the beginning, i felt better (went to the bathroom better and my metabolism seemed to speed up) but after a prolonged period of continuing this way, my body changed for the worse. i started incorporating more meat in my diet but now it doesn’t seem to digest as well as it used to. can not eating a lot of meat for a long time cause discomfort if you start eating it again?

i forgot to mention that when i decreased my meat intake, i started eating more soy protein like tofu, beans, and soy milk.
