      Unfortunately, it’s the rich that are feeding them the garbage that’s infested their minds. I don’t think there’s any saving the masses from the delusion they’re slobbering up, but as long as the buffet keeps getting restocked, the pigs will keep fattening up for the slaughter.

      There will probably be some slant in that direction, but there’ll be a much bigger slant towards killing the elderly, the immunocompromised, those who can’t afford medical care and time off, etc. As usual.

        being able to be vegan/vegetarian is a privilege. it’s expensive as hell for starters. you can eat meat and still want change in the meat industry.

          Not to mention there are people who physically have to eat meat. I have anemia due to stage 4 endometriosis. I can’t take iron supplements so have to eat meat or I get very sick.

    A lot of innocent people would die, but there could also be some big Ws if you know who and crew all kicked the bucket by dying due to the virus or ODing on bleach and ivermectin early, rather than after four years. Thumbing our noses at mother nature by slashing health departments and the WHO contributions are just asking for trouble.

        Yup. People don’t care about the kids mining their cobalt. To care about the animals they eat would be a long process.

      Anecdote: I’m pretty sure lots of diseased chickens are being dumped without being reported because carnists don’t want to cull their flock. I literally found several trashbags of sickly dead chickens spread around a field (by coyotes probably) where I run.

      Maybe Trump’s narcissism will work in our favor this time. He’s been impeached twice, among other things. Does he also want to go down in history as the president who exacerbated TWO pandemics?
