nah, meat is great. Just the sourcing of it is not so great. Get your meat from a local butcher where you know where the animal came from.
Or better yet, if you have the space, time and money: get your own livestock.

I talked to my vegan son about buying meat from local farms. He got mad at me for wanting to only kill the happy cows.

the animals don’t care wether their dead corpse is shipped to you from Argentina or from your local butcher that is just such a nice and friendly guy :^) they’d prefer not having their throat slit by anyone at all

They do care about how they lived their lives though. And I’d much rather like an animal which could roam around almost freely and enjoy its short life instead of one locked up in a tiny box in which it can barely move, suffering until its death.

Agreed. Ideally, the animals you eat have only one bad day in their entire life.

You apparently don’t know that most of the time, their throat is not slit to kill them, but rather animals are shot with a pneumatic bolt. Stay with the facts and you sound less aggressive.
