Some very interesting points made in the post above by Jen Slaven-Belanger. I always thought that the line was All lies and Chests!
I don’t think ‘Covid’ exists; spike in deaths were caused by loneliness, forced ventilation, remdesiver and midazolam and then by vaccines; the cure was the disease. Ignoring the devastations of obesity and poverty clearly shows the narrative writers are not actually interested in saving anyone’s lives nor in improving our health.
I do think carbon exists! It’s needed by plants so that they can produce oxygen for humans and many other beings to breathe. Single focus on net zero carbon as a cure for a ‘crisis’ will be the disease. Ignoring pollution, habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, lakes of farmed animals’ shit and ocean dead zones also shows they don’t give a shit about plants, animals, human beings nor anything else.
A few days ago I commented on Sam Bailey's latest video about eating bugs saying how disingenuous it was. She rightly says that energy (in a closed system) is never destroyed and goes on to say that we don't therefore need to worry about how much energy is lost in making calories from 'beef'. However, I pointed out that the system is not in fact closed, larger mammals do indeed require more parental/farmer input of space, water and energy to reach sexual maturity/slaughter age than smaller ones and as these animals will hopefully be running around expending energy as well as giving off energy as heat, this energy input will be lost to the system.
Though we certainly do not need to eat bugs. Humans have been happily eating beans, nuts and seeds, which are not passed through energy inefficient bodies of others, for thousands of years,
With millions of humans in developing countries starving while their remaining tillable-land is stolen to grow GMO corn and soy for contained animals or as pasture for grass-fed animals to make meat for first world consumers; I think it's quite an important issue. Jen explains and expands on this madness beautifully in her post.
Eating meat and dairy is a first world luxury at the expense of the developing world and is to the detriment of the farmed animal themselves as well as to wild animals and plant species killed and cleared for land. Sam Bailey showed some bucolic images of cows in fields buts none from factory farms which makes up over 90% of the way meat is produced. She also showed the barely cooked, bloody flesh of one of these animals being lovingly sliced, as though this somehow proved it’s acceptability and desirability.
The Baileys blocked me from their channel shortly after my comment.So that’s the end of that conversation then!
I think we should follow the money. Net zero carbon and eating bugs are obviously absurd, but the blanket ‘climate change is a hoax’ and the ensuing belief that burning fossil fuels (which will run out) is not damaging in any way, that its OK to carrying on polluting, using pesticides, emptying the forests and oceans, inflicting pain on other sentient beings, and that so long as there is enough meat, fish and dairy to eat in first world countries and it continues to be heavily subsidised by their respective tax-payers then there’s no need to worry about anyone else- plays right into the hands of the animal agriculture and fishing industries.
Big Animal Ag also buys billions of vaccines (which are given to ‘organic’ and ‘free-range’ animals) as well as antibiotics (administered by the ton to keep despairing and stressed animals alive) which are sold by its big, powerful, and profitable sister; the pharmaceutical industry.

Thanks for including a point I didn't include - the terrible consequences of first-world consumption of animal products directly harms so many people in developing countries because the land they should be using to grow food for themselves is used to grow animal-feed.
Disappointing about Sam Bailey.
Looks like first two links I sent are not worming so I’m sending one again. The other is a pdf and it will not copy. If you would like to read it I can try other ways.
