Did you see the ratio Bloomberg just earned for a tweet which recommends getting used to lentils instead of meat, switching to public transportation, and avoiding buying things in bulk?(This article is linked below)
The piece, written by economist Teresa Ghilarducci, recommends that families earning under $300,000 per year consider switching to public transportation, embracing a veggie diet, and “rethink those costly pet medical needs.”
The intellectual heavyweight oddly retweeted someone slamming her advice.
Which is being parodied throughout social media…

Unsurprisingly, Ghilarducci and the far-left “New School for Social Research” she works for is affiliated with the World Economic Forum (WEF) – which, in addition to bragging about having ‘infiltrated‘ various world governments – infamously suggested that people get used to eating bugs due to inevitable food shortages, and
Yes, this WEF:
Which brings us to the WEF’s latest – warning of an impending food crisis kicked off by the war in Ukraine.
Key points:
More people around the world will go hungry as a result of the pandemic, high fuel prices and the conflict in Ukraine. Russia and Ukraine are also major producers and suppliers of fertilizers and their raw materials. Existing logistical issues with moving grain and food are likely to worsen. Disruptions will put further pressure on this year’s harvest and lead to higher food prices. Even before the pandemic, the FAO estimated that 690 million people or 9% of the world’s population, were facing food insecurity.
In short, the Ukraine war is accelerating the existing problem of inflation and food shortages, so hold on to your hats and consider a ‘more sustainable diet’ because things are about to get much, much worse.
We are currently witnessing the beginning of a global food crisis, driven by the knock-on effects of a pandemic and more recently the rise in fuel prices and the conflict in Ukraine. There were already clear logistical issues with moving grain and food around the globe, which will now be considerably worse as a result of the war. But a more subtle relationship sits with the link to the nutrients needed to drive high crop yields and quality worldwide.
…
In this context, calling for an immediate government intervention to the market is therefore the natural thing to do. Yet government budgets are severely stretched after COVID, leaving little room for direct monetary support and contribution. In view of the recent promises to remove all Russian oil and gas from our imports, there will be some tough decisions ahead for governments, farmers and consumers alike.
In the medium term, it highlights the need to transform our food system, using more green energy. We should also be encouraging more sustainable diets, which contain fewer grain fed animal products; and regenerative agricultural practices, which improve soil health and the efficiency of nutrient use by the crop. -WEF
So… eat the bugs and be happy?
Your masters voice.
Wheat... Very finicky crop. Ever wonder why civilization initially thrived in certain latitudes? Look no further than wheat. There are other gluten producing grains but they are related cereals.
Wheat thrived in those conditions, yet other crops might not be so sensitive, such as oats or barley outside of those areas. Is wheat artificiality propped up to grow in regions outside of where it thrives naturally?
Is wheat so important solely because of glutin, or is it about the methane bovines produce?
BigWheat? Is BigWheat as powerful as Big Corn or is it all Big-Agra nowadays?
Give us corn! Or dried peas and rice. Or lentils!
Or swap crops? Big agra can’t farm on the fly. I wonder if independents can?
They seem to be under the impression that they will be protected from the unwashed masses, so they have no fear.
Fear will set them straight.
Biden is making the worse yet to come.

First try Mexican. The foodstamp fed ones that drink beer and relax to loud Mariachi music all night long have the best marbling.
Black soldier fly larva are the world’s most perfect chicken feed. Let chickens do the bug eating for you. BSF grow in nearly every organic substrate, waste food, organic litter, garden scraps, manure of every species including chickens. Grow chicken feed on scraps and waste, feed chickens, eat the eggs and the Cockerels keep the hens to grow your flock and trade for other things some piglets perhaps they get down on BSF which happens to be 60% complete protein, loaded with carbs and fats too.
Why does “WEF Meeting” make me immediately think “Daisy Cutter”. Weird. “Klaus Schab” evokes “Tomahawk Cruise Missile.”
Trump has his work cut out for him once he’s reelected.
