I disagree with the comment on the point about it being a leftist naivety, but it is naïve nonetheless. Life feeds on life and all that. That they’re sentient doesn’t matter, some people argue plants are sentient too (not that I necessarily agree)
You, like many users on this thread are ignoring the evidence because you don’t like the outcome. You not understanding the pain does not mean no pain. Life for some means death for others. Period.
You can not avoid it on a micro or macro scale, all you can do is change WHAT you kill.
I mean, just because you care about only pain you can see and understand, doesn’t mean you have a leg to stand on argument-wise. Plants respond to warnings from their peers about dangers, brace for pain, and signal pain to others. You are factually and morally incorrect.
When allegiance becomes central to identity, simply acknowledging reality can feel like a personal defeat.

Oh man, do I have some bad news for you…
Plants CAN feel pain.
You not understanding the pain or finding a way to measure the pain does not mean there is no pain.

That one article, yes, but there are more. I trust you know how to use search, but: https://www.sciencetimes.com/articles/24473/20191218/a-group-of-scientists-suggest-that-plants-feel-pain.htm We’ve known for a while that trees do this, and fungi are notorious for this.

Most people, including leftists, are meat eaters.
Did you assume he was a lefty because he used a word with more than 4 syllables?
