NYT Op-Ed: ‘Stop Eating Animals’ If You Care About Climate Change, Racial Justice and Working Poor
NewsBusters ^ | 5/27/2020 | Joseph Vazquez

What is it with liberal outlets and their apparent virtue-signaling obsession with eliminating meat from our diets? The New York Times published a wacky op-ed headlined “The End of Meat Is Here.” In the sub-headline, author Jonathan Safran Foer grumbled that “If you care about the working poor, about racial justice, and about climate change, you have to stop eating animals.” [Emphasis added.] Only leftists like Foer would know how to make that nonsensical connection.

a vegan populace is easier to control... more weak and feeble and cannot hunt their own food.

Eating animals prevents them from farting. Which, we are told, contributes to Global Warming. So we are actually reducing Global Warming by eating them.

I’m convinced that this sort of propaganda is encouraged by the CCP as it means more meat for the market in China.

Logan’s Steak House just went bankrupt. Some fast food places ran out of beef recently.

Leftists must be thrilled.

Someone said there are now hot dog available that are made out of carrots. Maybe with some arugula, a side of turnips and a garnish of prairie grass.

I’ll pass on that.

Every time we eat beef we are happy because that’s one less cow fart being released.

I got banned from twitter over a very similar article...

I basically took the stance that I will continue to eat all the meat I want and will never stop.

Of course liberals were irate, which is what I was hoping for.

I went from consuming meat to hunting and killing my own meat, like hogs, deer, chickens, etc....

After a day or so after being called every vile thing in the world, I was banned....I’ve lost zero sleep.

These people have childish minds. There is no reason to debate with them.

It might occur to them that the “working poor” love a nice, juicy steak as much as anyone else.

The NY Slimes needs to make a complaint to all the lions out there in the Kalahari desert who kill, and eat, antelopes and other game for their sustenance.

Maybe they can convince the lions to become vegetarians.

Gates and his globalist eugenists are big-time invested in fake-meat, heavily processed foods. (As they are of course patented GMO crops.)

Because of Foer’s frequent use of modernist literary devices, some view him as a polarizing figure in modern literature. In his critical article “Extremely Cloying and Incredibly False,” Harry Siegel wrote in the New York Press, “Foer is supposed to be our new Philip Roth, though his fortune-cookie syllogisms and pointless illustrations and typographical tricks don’t at all match up to or much resemble Roth even at his most inane.” The Huffington Post contributor Anis Shivani included him in his list of the fifteen most overrated modern American writers.

Only leftist pro-totalitarian governments want such things.
