  • Villifying plants is on the nonsensical agenda as well (i.e. making mountains out of molehills over soy/phytoestrogens). But Tofu and other soybean foods have been staples across a huge chunk of East Asia for centuries and nobody’s been worse off for it (besides unlucky allergies). Funny enough, East Asia also has a few niche recipes for cooking bugs, and since my parents are from South Korea I occasionally ate steamed silkworm pupae as a kid (they sell them here in cans as 번데기/beondegi). The weird earthy taste and general phobia of creepy crawlies is the reason it’s not too popular nowadays. I wasn’t a huge fan myself but I do see bug meat as a potential resource.

    So it’s just the usual fearmongering over made-up problems. Plant protein is good, bug protein has existed as something I wouldn’t mind if it tastes alright, and the meat industry’s going to lobby for more subsidies and thrive regardless of what happens.




  • You mean rejecting both popular and representative democracy by attempting to kidnap and execute Congress?

    This isn’t some event in 1850 that you can pretend was about state’s rights or some bullshit like that, since you dumbasses recorded the event and voiced the motives yourselves. There wasn’t any goal of making America a better place to live, just pure spite to punish everyone who said no to an openly shitty demagogue. Fuckin’ pathetic.








  • I got banned off /r/politics because of an article about a Fox News reporter who was caught lying about the election and inciting viewers to commit revolution (i.e. treason and assassination). I commented that he should stuff it up his ass, and got kicked for “death threats.”

    Mod was probably a powertripping wingnut masquerading as an independent. “Centrists” who coddle and defend the fascists are no less fascist themselves, and if that hurts their feelings then I have some nice horse paste for them to cry into.


  • Commies speedrun civilization suicide because the government hoards all the money and let the workers starve.

    Nazis drag out the process because capitalism incentivizes work (until it doesn’t, e.g. LSC) and maximizing suffering for outgroups gets them off, but eventually their anti-intellectual groupthink hits critical mass and they unalive themselves in some colossally stupid fashion while claiming germs aren’t real and that they totally didn’t get scammed out of their life savings because Lord Donald told them to.

    Satan got demoted from nepo baby to HR manager.

    “Surely there’s a mistake, I shouldn’t be here!”

    “Wow, how original, Arnaud, it’s only the two millionth time I’ve heard that line today. Lemme pull up your file… ah yes, ‘God will know his own,’ what a convenient excuse for burning a city to the ground and executing 20,000 unarmed civilians. Dad damn it, Catholic hypocrites are the worst. Bet you diddled some kids while you were at it too, you sick fuck.”
