this is another example y'all stating a bad outcome and then like 5% of that bad outcome comes true and y'all gloat about how y'all were completely right

Biden forcibly limited everyone's beef consumption is now the equivalent of a website no longer promoting beef recipes (they still are keeping all of their old beef recipes on the site BTW)

whats weird is if Epicuriuos just announced they were going full vegan there would be no outrage

What’s even more weird is they didn’t do that. They specifically mentioned beef. No other meat. I wonder, is there anything that happened recently that could’ve possibly preempted that?

I’m sure to you it’s just a complete coincidence. Just like Meriam Webster choosing to redefine ‘preference’ out of the hundreds of thousands of words in their dictionary back in October, right?

Its obviously virtue signaling designed to capitalize off the climate talk.

Its why they announced it now, despite the fact that they stopped promoting beef recipes a year ago.

I commented about this on the FDB thread about this.

Keep encouraging over-fishing. The oceans are being plundered by China and others doing far more damage to our planet, but instead we focus on American cattle farmers.

Honestly, what would be best for our planet would be for a LOT of people to die, and most of them in underdeveloped countries that just pour trash and pollution straight into our oceans.


Not advocating it in the least...but, if you wanted to help things...

Individual citizens choose to ignore politicians and “experts” isn’t helping your point.

Oh wow, imagine that. Companies virtue signaling based on progressive talking points. We totally haven’t seen any of that in the last year.

They already are "burning" books. Might as well throw a few cookbooks in the fire.
