Sanctimony is feigned or hypocritical righteousness or piety. Could you explain why this describes vegetarianism? Of course some individual vegetarians are sanctimonious, but you seem to be generalizing to the practice of vegetarianism.
You suggest “lobbying the meat industry to change its ways, or supporting the development of synthetic meat.” Could you tell me more specifically how to do that? I might try it. Regardless, I don’t see how that makes it a worse idea to reduce my meat consumption.
