Every person still buying and consuming animal products paid for this.
S.O.B.
SAVE OUR BEEF
You are part of the elite you stupid stupid fuck
What an idiot. So now I can't buy impossible burgers?
To my understanding, Impossible burgers are plant based / vegan. They aren’t lab grown meats of indistinguishably beef DNA.
Correct, those burgers are made from soy and potato protein. No meat in any form inside.
Thats good to know. Still, our govenor is an idiot
I ban your life
Florida seems to ban something every week.

Brought to you by the "party defending your freedom"...
and "small government"
Conservative are just so fucking stupid that it hurts my brains every god damn day having to deal with their fragile mental bullshit.
Something about "global elite" just sounds antisemitic to me... is this the new new "international Jewry?"
Could be I just have a hair trigger response these days, though
I first read "International Jerry," and wondered for a second what Seinfeld had done this time.
Pretty standard antisemitic dog whistle.
Yeah - it’s an Alex Jones thing. “International bankers” or the “global elite” are conniving with George Soros and Bill Gates to make you live in a “fifteen minute city” and eat da bugs.
and eat da bugs.
I'M DOING MY PART!
Would you like to know more?
Korean bar near me has a dish with silkworm pupae and I am certainly curious. Mealworms and crickets haven’t been bad, but I usually only eat them to psych out Boy Scouts.
I'm imagining you going around grossing out actual children Boy Scouts by eating progressively weirder things in front of them
Also showing off my pet vinegaroon, Tortilla (RIP), who’d make the whole room smell like vinegar and looked like a monster. Dare them to pet the hissing cockroaches and tell them about the professor at my university who let a tick feed off of her for weeks to prove that species was able to parasitize humans.
Most of my working life has been spent grossing out children, it’s pretty great.
Hahaha that's great
It's a dog whistle yes
I didn't realize the market was so fragile and needed conservatives to control it so closely. You learn something new every day!
Ya, you know, free-market and all that. Exactly what they have been borking up a tree about for decades now.
/s for those that need it.
Ok you guys, this is too silly. I’m not buying it any more. You can let me out of the simulation now.
Subtly serve Ron a dish including lab grown meat for dinner one day, see if he notices the difference
I AM THE GLOBAL ELITE.
KNEEL BEFORE MY VEGAN MIGHT!
ALL SHALL LOVE ME AND DESPAIR.
Lab grown meat is not vegan. It is “real” meat grown from animal cells. But yes, the joke is still funny.
No true vegan? After a certain point that seems a bit like arguing that corn isn't vegan because it was fertilized with cow droppings, but...
It depends on the type of vegan. If they are vegan because they don’t like hurting animals, then lab grown meat is fine. If they are vegan because eating meat has a negative effect on their health, then it’s not fine.
You offer it to me freely??
...well, no, it's actually much more expensive than subsidised beef, but that's not important right now: KNEEL!..
