What I believe is going on is that the elites want to maintain a permanent superior position in society. The only problem is that we may, as a species, advanced as far as our intellect and capabilities can take us.

Since we may have advanced as far as we can, on this side of eternity, they cannot maintain a superior position over us. Eventually, if we were a corrupt-free society, the average person would eventually obtain the standard of living of the elites and life wouldn't be as special to them.

So, to maintain their superior position, where they get the best of everything that life has to offer, the rest of us has to be dehumanized and pushed down purposefully to a lesser standard of living.

At least until the possibility of our species become space faring. Then, they having something special again that can be denied to the rest of us, they will allow us a better standard of living.

Mercenary guards aren't paid enough to play Davy Crockett, and try to turn some compound in Connecticut into the Alamo.

You doubt? Ask Quadafi, or Ceaușescu, or Pol Pot...

Unlike other national revolts, 1/3 of all the small arms in the world are in private hands, here in the US.

Peasants got to eat gruel while the elites ate meat.

The local Duke got to spend your wife’s wedding night with her instead of you.

Colors like purple, and fabrics like silk, were reserved for the aristocracy.

Same thing, different century. The last few centuries of Republicanism have been a break for humanity. Some powerful people want to go back to the old ways.

See if they really wanted to get people to eat this,

They’d have all the celebrities and elites and politicians and ceos eating all this crap and then saying to the small little people, you can’t eat this, only the best people get to eat this. Jamie Oliver would cook cricket meals for the mucky mucks and cry “think about the children”.

Then of course, the regular masses would demand to eat bugs. Bugs: not just for the hoidy-toidy folks.

I started a garden this year finally. It is going to be much bigger next season.

With inflation trending the way it is, ya gotta ask -
How many steps is it from buying store brands to
save a buck or twenty - to eating bugs?
Probably fewer than we think.

Go Brandon Go! - (to hell)
