I’m saying grocery stores don’t keep a pile of money segregated that only-comes-from-and-is-only-spent-on vegan food. when the 4th of July rolls around, they stock up on hotdogs with whatever money is on hand.
I’m also saying your policy of not giving money to grocery stores just isn’t workable for most people.
But you get to influence which decisions are profitable. When you pay them money in exchange for dead animals, you create incentive for them to arrange for there to be more dead animals

Grocery stores keep budgets and expense reports. They downscale whatever products aren’t selling or making them money. It’s called running a business.
they may. I don’t get to decide how they make decisions or which ones they make.

they have free will. I don’t get to make their decisions for them.
Wow, you found a way to pay for corpses and somehow contrive yourself into not being responsible for the deaths
I’m not responsible for what other people do
So if I gave money to an assassin and told him to kill you, I wouldn’t be responsible for his actions?
this analogy doesn’t hold up: the meat is on a shelf and everyone has been paid before I decide whether to buy it.
