Yet when Michelle Obama merely suggested that Americans eat better and exercise, the pedo GOP blew a gasket.

Damn liberals always telling you what to do.

Conservatives just make it prohibitively expensive to do what you want to do.

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

Thanks, Trump! The animals thank you, too!

Imagine humans revolting because they’re pissed they don’t have the luxury of supporting ongoing genocide of living beings in the name of immediate gratification.

Wait, which message did conservative radio give my brainwashed family members to parrot?

"Eggs are too expensive, its the President's faukt." "Steak is too expensive, eat something else."

I need to know what to expect at Thanksgiving.

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.

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.

Capitalism will make vegans of us yet.

Bread and water for you. And you'll like it!

Cattle country hates this one trick!

I actually agree. Eat less beef and more vegetarian meals. I ate beef today but I also had vegetarian meals 4 days in the last week

Considering that beef is a potential carcinogen, it's actually good advice. Plus, cattle are a massive producer of methane, which is far worse for global warming than CO~2~

Not to mention screw worms.

Is Trump about to give the same inadvertent boost to plant-based diets and the environment as he did for renewables?

Yeah bitch, we about to switch from beef to Eat the Rich.

Have you considered eating bugs yet MAGA?

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?

let them eat cake

“But if it is too expensive — unlike fuel, Benny — you can eat chicken, pork, salmon, eggs."

"Let them eat salmon." LOL.

So there are alternative proteins. That's a free market situation. But there is no alternative to the petro-state. Doing less driving is communism.

Oil and beef are expensive. 😞

Oil and beef are expensive. 😀

And they said the democrats wanted to take away hamburgers.

Got that Marie Antoinette energy.

It is kinda nice that Impossible Steak Bites now costs less per unit of mass than beef does. Going vegetarian starting to make more sense every day...

So maybe Trump is actually caring about climate change.

Not only has he lowered the CO2 emissions, through the closure of the straight of Hormuz. Gives electric cars a big boost and now he turns people away from meat to a plant based diet.

Wonder what is next on his agenda to save the planet. Keep on going.

lol

GOP: "we support farmers!!!!"

also GOP: "oh, beef too much? buy something else"

i am not against changing our diet per say. i can envision a future where we eat more bugs/algae proxies. when playing cyber punk i saw an ad for pizza with “REAL peperoni crickets” or something, and wile i know it’s out there to shock the player, the more i think about it the more i embrace it.

in this case i declare broken clock protocols, and know that this is a symptom to larger rot in society, but our current way of life was never sustainable, nor particularly healthy.

"Let them eat re-constituted soy!" (I've heard that before, but in a different language).

I agree, we should add some succulent, fattened long pork to our diets.

Let them eat pork.

Close enough... get the guillotines.
