Now a coffee ban? The WEF is eyeing coffee ...
American Thinker ^ | 18 May, 2024 | Eric Utter

Roughly 75% of Americans drink coffee every day.

That won’t be the case for long, apparently, if the elites at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, have their way.

Did anyone notice what they were talking about back in January during the 2024 World Economic Forum's Davos get-together?

During a recent WEF panel discussion, a reporter for Moneywise, in an item posted on Yahoo! Finance, reported that one speaker, some banker named Hubert Keller, remarked, “The coffee that we all drink emits between 15 and 20 tons of CO2 per ton of coffee.” Ominously, he added, “so we should all know that.”

Keller also noted, “Every time we drink coffee, we are basically putting CO2 into the atmosphere.”

What’s more, the production of coffee additives such as sugar and milk also puts large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere.

While Keller didn’t overtly try to convince people to reduce or eschew their consumption of black gold, he must’ve had a reason for raising the topic.

In the aftermath of the pandemic, I now know that rulers and elites can, sadly, make regular folks believe -- and do -- just about anything.

They can tell them their job isn’t crucial. They can tell them they can’t go to the gym -- and can’t, in fact, leave their homes. They can tell them they can’t go to a loved one’s wedding or a family member’s funeral.

And they will be obeyed. In the future, the elites might be able to coerce folks into owning nothing -- and being happy about that fact. They might even be able to convince people to “eat ze bugs.”

But telling people to give up coffee will be a deal breaker, a bridge too far.

Well, I guess I could cut back to a half ton a year. For the planet.

If you let them win on coffee, they will move on to soda, tea, beer, wine, steak, hamburger, chicken, pork, in fact everything except cow urine and grasshoppers.

The WEFers stuff their fat faces with the fat of the land while they decree that the ordinary people will have nothing, eat bugs, and pretend to be happy.

It’s always been obvious but now it’s official. It’s a fake religion, pumping people full of fake guilt.

You’re guilty of something, so here, we’re gonna make some hsit up and smear it all over you.

Guilty, Guilty, Guilty, you irredeemable environmental sinner.

OTOH ve do have indulgences for sale...

Authoritarian leftists fixated on global domination are on just about everyone's last raw nerve.

May the stage 4 cancer patients depart with a message! Don't go quietly, and take a few with you on the way out.

” They know that the average dimb bulb American doesn’t know. Teach nothing but art, ecology, sociology and courses about people’s feelings and this is what happens.”

Sad comment and undoubtedly true. I signed up for a course in sociology in college many decades ago. Totally boring, dropped it.

My ecosystem of organic gardening depends heavily on coffee grinds, egg shells, junk mail, and green clippings. Coffee grinds kill off the slugs with caffeine toxicity. The earth worms love grinds. The junk mail goes in a five gallon bucket, ground up into a slurry along with egg shells and kitchen scraps.

Next step will be the banning of consumption of any form of alcohol. Kentucky beware and Budweiser start folding your tents.

It’s Luwak coffee. No monkey but some type of opossum that eats only the choicest coffee berries.

If coffee is ever banned, or so highly regulated as to be unaffordable, then anyone named Hubert Keller will need 24/7 bodyguards. People are NOT going to put up with this $hit much longer, and that will put a bunch of people over the edge.

Life is beginning to imitate "Demolition Man"....



"I've seen the future, you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sittin' around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake singing "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener". You wanna live on top, you gotta live Cocteau's way. What he wants, when he wants, how he wants. Your other choice: come down here, maybe starve to death."

We haven’t even brought up El Exajente yet, let alone US soldiers freezing their asses off at 0400 in Shitholestan. These WEF guys must be on some powerful juice if they think that people won’t literally hang them from lampposts for this kind of crap.

“The coffee that we all drink emits between 15 and 20 tons of CO2 per ton of coffee.
According to somebody who heard it from somebody.

Never accept the premise.”

Plus, these guys never calculated the number of murders prevented by each ton of coffee…starting with their own.

If you add some finally ground charcoal (real charcoal, not with fuel additives) all of those nutrients will last for 1000 years in your soil. Look up “biochar.“

In an ideal world, the WEF would be really concerned about ropes and lampposts.

“Why TF are you sorry?”

I’m trying to be humane, even though the Swiss are a haven for globalists. I don’t want to destroy the historic artifacts. Then there’s Davos.

We turned half of Germany into rubble to get the first set of Nazis. Surely, one single city turned into a radioactive parking lot is a worthwhile price to pay to get rid of this set of Nazis, before they gain power over everyone on Earth.
