It wasn’t just that. There was prior evidence because he made one appearance every two months under very controlled circumstances and even then he looked lost as shit, confused, wandering, and whenever he talked into a mic you only got thirty seconds of sense out of him before he’d ramble about nonsense.

They wouldn’t have done a primary anyway because they knew Kamala (their chosen corporate candidate) would have gotten absolutely wrecked. She didn’t get a single delegate in the 2020 primaries.

I don’t think that’s fair, that’s a child. Children can get infatuated with people and they don’t have the experience or the frame of reference to measure the consequences.

They were supposed to stay there and kill their countrymen for not bowing down to empire

Nah dude if you stay an early adopter you can hop onto whatever platform is a fuckin desert before they enshittify it the minute it starts getting a community

Oh my, they have burger patties in the store? Wagyu beef and USDA Choice ribeye sellers must be shaking in their boots. Run and tell Tyson, if they subsidize lab grown meat nobody will buy a single chicken breast again now that there’s the option to buy a vegan burger for the same price a regular burger used to cost!

Jfc are you 9? They attempt to ban prospective competition, it doesn’t need to actually have significant market cap. The point is to strangle stuff in the cradle.

trying to ban the competition is just business as usual in the US, that’s ridiculously far from lab grown meat being a viable alternative.

Again, you can make fine burger meat with that process, anything else is fucking shit at the moment. It probably will get better eventually, but who knows how long it’ll be and there’s other sources of protein readily available already that don’t entail giving enormous subsidies to yet another fucking corporation.

It’s not available. It’s an expensive, comparatively hands-on process that can only produce good ground beef and shitty everything else.

You know something that tastes like meat, has the texture of meat, and has the nutritional qualities of meat? Fucking meat, which you could still have if you really wanted it, you’d just have to do it once every few weeks instead of twice a day.

Failing that, there’s already a high protein meat substitute that has good texture, flavor and is super cheap in terms of labor and water, it’s called a mushroom.

it really proves that it’s not about the environment and y’all just want to force your choices

Lmao. Believe it or not, most people don’t give a single shit about your dietary choices. I love meat myself, if lab grown meat were as good, could be as cheap, or as labor efficient, I’d be all for it like I am for, say, nuclear. But it just ain’t so, this futurist fetishism that some libs have is so fucking ridiculous and it’s really telling that when people tell you why it’s just not feasible your first instinct is to go “you’re literally 1984ing me rn”

Subsidies for meat alternatives are a very liberal non-solution. The tech is not there for meat outside of ground beef and the state shouldn’t be subsidizing to create a different problem, the issue with the USA’s ridiculous meat overproduction and consumption isn’t that there’s a slaughter in the process, it’s that the amount of manpower/water/energy required is ridiculous. The subsidies should be substantially reduced for meat and dairy, and price controls (or outright government handouts) should be in place for staple foodstuffs.

If grains and legumes become cheaper, people will find a way to make them tastier and eat them way more often.

Every single time? Lmao.

What the fuck did Joe Biden fix? Did he fix the genocide in Gaza, did he? Did Obama fix the rampant corruption and financialization that led to the 2008 crash? What was he fixing when he had his cabinet orchestrate the maidan coup? Did Clinton fix the war on drugs with the crime bill?

Liberals don’t fix jack shit. They pretend now it’s too late to do anything, theyre powerless, at best things can stay mostly the same. And you better behave and vote for them next time because these laws they just passed can be used to facilitate a lot of fascism (it’s ok for them to have them because they’re not fascists though!)

Deeply ahistorical, terminally unserious.

When the fuck have “moderate liberals” fixed a single thing

I thought y’all needed all the guns to defend yourselves from tyranny.

I’m just saying, none of this shit would fly if the BPP was still around.

It’s one baby, Michael. How much could it cost, 5k?

When education isn’t liberating the dream of the oppressed is to become the oppressor

pointed out that if everyone picks the lesser of two evils then things are going to get less evil

That’s just absolutely not how it works even if you take it at face value. Both evils can be greater than the one rn, that has absolutely no bearing on which one is “lesser” among them.

You’re looking at it the wrong way. The fall of capitalism is the retirement plan, the people losing the most money rn were never gonna let you if things kept going the same way.

Ask seniors currently being squeezed for all they’re worth while being abused by staff in cramped and unsanitary facilities how they’re loving their retirement fund. That was the best case scenario.

It very demonstrably is. Credit card debt is at record highs, home ownership is down, rents are a bigger proportion of salary than they’ve been in like a century, one in every five children in the US face food insecurity, incarceration is the highest in the world by far both in volume and per capita, people are going bankrupt with medical debt at record rates.

Just because you don’t want to face up to it doesn’t mean it’s not happening.

Sure, if you refuse to look at the sky it’s pretty hard to see the asteroid getting bigger.
