Maybe your imagination accurately reflects reality or maybe not, but it’s certainly not discongruent with enough people having the viewpoint(s) that make jkaufman’s stance not-unusual.
The average person’s revealed preferences seem to assign close to zero weight to animal suffering.
On the other hand, we could make the argument that we should compare jkaufman’s position to what I would assume to be the tiny minority of people who have given any substantial amount of thought to veganism and animal suffering.
In that case, I would agree that it is likely that he is unusual.
