Definition of "Leftists":
(1)
Do as we say,
not as we do
people. who are
never happy with
their country.
(2)
Their definition
of "hate speech"
is anything that
doesn't agree with them.
(3)
They don't
think twice
about flying
across the world,
on private jets,
to attend "climate
change" conferences !
(4)
Most important:
Leftists think they have
to lecture everyone else
how to live their lives !
Leftists Beating
Up Their Meat:
Order a steak in front of
a leftist, and you might
get a tedious lecture
on the “destructive effects”
of the meat industry,
on “climate change”.
And there's supposedly
some health benefits
from being a vegetarian,
but meat eaters live longer
than vegetarians, so that
claim is questionable !
Beyond Meat stock rose
to stardom, simply for selling
fake meat, made from mashed
peas, plus a huge number of
chemicals, at high prices.
Any company can make
a pea-based fake meat
product -- but only one
can call it "Beyond Meat".
Ten years in business, and
still not profitable, the huge
market capitalization of
Beyond Meat suggests
there's lots of foolish
speculation going on.
For at least a decade,
the United Nations
has been aggressively
promoting a meat free
world.
Of course the same UN
seems to think that
the worst nation
on Earth is Israel
... not North Korea,
Venezuela, China,
or Iran !
The horrible Green
New Deal (ordeal?)
agenda matches
the UN's Agenda 21
and Agenda 2030.
Most of the huge
amount of money
required to implement
the Green New Deal
would be spent on
socialist programs,
completely unrelated
to "green energy".
Some leftists argue
for heavy taxation
on meat products
to reduce consumption.
I'm waiting for all leftists
to voluntarily stop eating
meat -- then they can
shame every meat eater
they see, with the usual
Saul Alinsky-style ridicule,
and character attacks,
like they so often use
on everyone who doubts
a climate crisis is coming.
Must people abandon
burgers and steaks ?
Well, I "abandoned" steaks
decades ago, but I still like
hamburgers, so I have to fight
to defend the steak lovers !
What is the real agenda ?
It seems that leftists
want to monitor and pass
judgement on everything
we do.
Global governance
( global dominance? )
to "save the Earth
for the children"
-- is the latest line
to "sell" their
beloved socialism.
In the early 1990's,
a group of consultants
to the UN called for
an end to human
population growth.
In their white paper,
'The First Global
Revolution', the
"Club of Rome"
stated:
“In searching for
a common enemy
against whom
we can unite,
we came up
with the idea
that pollution,
the threat of
global warming,
water shortages,
famine and the like,
would fit the bill.
In their totality
and their interactions
these phenomena
do constitute
a common threat
which must be
confronted by
everyone together.
But in designating
these dangers
as the enemy,
we fall into the trap,
which we have already
warned readers about,
namely mistaking
symptoms for causes.
All these dangers
are caused by human
intervention in natural
processes. and it is
only through changed
attitudes and behaviour
that they can be overcome.
The real enemy then
is humanity itself.”
The statement above is from
"Chapter 5 – The Vacuum",
in which the leftist elites
see environmental catastrophe,
caused by mankind itself,
as the best possible motivator.
The Club Of Rome narrative
is driven by leftist ideology,
not science -- the real goal
for the UN was global energy
and environmental governance,
not saving the planet.
What does all this
have to do with meat ?
Human beings have been
omnivores for millions
of years.
Native American tribes,
who used to live closest
to how our prehistoric
ancestors lived long ago,
had meat heavy diets.
The human brain NEEDS
fatty acids, such as Omega 3,
only found in saturated fats
in meats, and not found
the plant world.
I'm no vegetarian,
but I take a fish oil
supplement pill daily.
The brain uses almost 20%
of the human body's calorie
intake to function.
Professional athletes
do not build muscles
with a vegan diet ...
and plant based foods
( mainly soy ), can
reduce testosterone.
Beyond Meat fake meat
is lacking amino acids,
Omega 3 fatty acids,
and vitamins, such as B12.
It uses coconut oil to mimic
saturated animal fats.
Fake meat is also highly
processed, and uses a
complicated method
to mimic beef protein
structures.
It can only be created
in a laboratory -- you
could not create your
own fake meat by
mixing up vegetables
at home.
In my opinion, the climate
alarmists can become vegans,
and never fly on jets
to climate conferences,
if they want to make a
"climate change statement".
Here in southeastern Michigan,
where I live, I have been
patiently waiting for global
warming since I moved here
from New York in 1977.
Meanwhile, 2019 so far
has been our coldest year
since 1977.
As I get older, I notice
how often people will
vacation in warmer
weather, or move south
after they retire, and
they generally like
warmer weather.
Yet, for some reason,
climate alarmists claim
if every day of the year
was +1 degree C.
( +2 degrees F. )
warmer than today,
50 to 100 years from now,
that would somehow
be a climate crisis !
Hey, I'll take +2 degrees F.
warmer every single day
here in Bingham Farms,
Michigan !
So here I am,
waiting patiently
for global warming
to reach Michigan,
and now thinking
about having a real
meat hamburger
for lunch ...
and also thinking
that climate alarmists
are "mental cases",
as we used to say,
back in New York !
