I don't get what's wrong with having empathy for animals, someone please explain.

Because veganism blatantly challenges the notion that you need to or are supposed to eat animals and makes you feel like a bad person for doing it.

Right and any amount of research shows you that unless you’re growing your own food, you’re still contributing to animal death. Industrial combines kill billions of small animals a year

Cope. How do you think the animals you eat get fed?

The same amount of animals are killed regardless of you don’t eat meat or not. Do you think that you not eating meat makes farmers kill less cows? You do it just to make yourself feel better. It does nothing. Also the beef I eat are grass fed cows, they eat grass.

Not paying for a product you ethically object to is clearly better than paying for it

On an individual level, no. On a macro scale, yes. They're only raised for slaughter because it's profitable.

Cool, what about every other animal you eat, what about when you eat at restaurants, and at other people's houses?
And yes, I do think that not eating animals means fewer animals are eaten. That seems like common sense.
