Good message, wrong reasoning.
Ecologists have been telling people [from rich countries] to minimize beef consumption or drop it altogether for years, but not because of its price tag.
“Cost of living too high? KILL YOURSELVES, STREET URCHINS!”
- the wealthy
If food is too expensive, don’t eat.
-Republicans
Famine makes ecconomic sense
-Also Republicans
Why aren’t the plebians having kids? We need more wage slaves! Maybe outlawing abortion is the solution.
-Republicans, again
Also “Eggs are too expensive, I will bring the prices down on day one”
Personally, I will just get my meat from a blue dot farmer. There is a website for blue dot farms if you want to search on Brave.
Eventually, Id like to buy 60 - 70 % of my groceries and any fun things from progressives or blue dots entirely.
Oh look, a rich person literally begging to be eaten.
“Let them eat re-constituted soy!” (I’ve heard that before, but in a different language).
let them eat cake
I thought it was poor quality Argentinian beef?
I forgot this ref, it’s a ref, right?
It’s something that Marie Antoinette was accused of saying when French peasants were starving just before the French Revolution. Consensus is that she never actually did but it’s a good little anecdote for rich people being blissfully unaware of real life.
Lets eat the rich, then.
Close enough… get the guillotines.
LOL, she was soooo close for a moment, I guess. She’s still adhering to protein mythologies, it seems. It’s 2026. Do people still not know?
But I find it funny that the cons clutched their pearls so hard over Michelle suggesting kids get more exercise and eat vegetables. And now it’s a con that is depriving them of beef and telling them to make do.
I thought the liberals were going to make conservative eat bugs and live in a shoebox and own nothing?
They are hypocrites, they don’t care and neither does the electorate. They would have dragged her regardless of what she did or said. Remember they were making a commotion about a fucking tan suit.
This administration is going to accidentally encourage a ton of earth friendly behavior. Won’t offset the evil being done, but it’s kind of funny.
Is Trump about to give the same inadvertent boost to plant-based diets and the environment as he did for renewables?
He’s so far right that he’s popping out on the left like in Kid Icarus. Did you hear about those $5k socialism checks? EVs are getting adopted en masse. Now reducing beef in diets? What’s next, common sense gun control? Fully legalized cannabis? Trust busting?
It’s too bad he’s holding up gigantic projects like wind and solar. Also, many subsidies for EV and rooftop solar disappeared. So, yeah, if he brought that back, demand might shoot way up thanks to the failed policies of donnie.
I thought that might be where she goes, but she’s about as clueless about nutrition as can be expected of a winger.
And they said the democrats wanted to take away hamburgers.
Well, she didn’t tell them to eat rice and beans, which would have been too woke, I guess. Even if much smarter on a whole lot of levels.
She pointed them at other animal foods, or as become the new fashion, “protein”.
Got that Marie Antoinette energy.
Have y’all seen the price of cake?
I went to the grocery store tonight, a single prefabricated slice of cheesecake was $9. That should be the price at a nice restaurant.
Oil and beef are expensive. 😞
