This is a good, nuanced take that I as a vegan have struggled with believing. We don't want pets, but animals are very much still suffering in this imperfect world.

I wouldn't say we don't want pets per se. Some of us do but the difference is trying to find the most ethical way of obtaining and taking care of them.
