If you’re railing against being made to eat bugs yeah you’re a conspiracy theorist. They’re a perfectly fine meat replacement, though I’ll stick with beans like I think most people will want to

Besides no one forces anyone to eat bugs nor is it any sane persons agenda.

Sanity is not playing in to mainstream discourse anymore. The loonies are out and have been empowered. Best we can do is try to get them back on their meds and professional help.

We would all be just a little better off as a whole if we ate some beans instead of a steak more often than not.

Yeah that’s why I’ve not eaten land meat for over a year (I occasionally indulge in sustainable fish). I think one major barrier to people is they don’t get how fucking cheap and lazy you can be with meatless meals. And it’s not like I don’t miss meat but physically I’m in great shape, I’m healthy, I eat lazily, and my food is very good. Not much cooking is easier than throwing a can of beans into some water with taco seasoning, reducing it, and slapping it in a tortilla with your toppings of choice.

Well, this whole global warming thing seems to be moving a little faster than expected. If it keeps going on like this, Most of our food sources in the ocean will die off pretty quick. It is all connected. The reality is we either stop what we are doing and the whole world make a concentrated effort to stop/reverse this or we are all doomed. And I don't see ANYONE willing to stop what we are doing... at all.
