Sanctimonious social engineers of the sort who have been stomping a massive carbon footprint onto Glasgow want us to eat insects and weeds as a show of their reverence for the climate. Do they eat bugs themselves? What do you think?

Pretending for a moment that meat makes it be catastrophically hot outside as we are told to believe, the COP26 menu really is like serving cigarettes at a lung cancer conference. What do you expect from a global moonbat ruling class that has as its motto Do As I Say Not As I Do?

On a tip from KirklesWorth.

If vegetarianism isn’t unnatural, why do people have canine teeth for tearing meat? Moonbats counter that canines can be vegetarians too. There is even video proof. Except the video didn’t turn out so well:

Presumably the video was intended to ridicule moonbats, or it never would have been shown to the public. But some vegetarians really do believe that all animals can be converted to their unhealthy religion. A wokester once informed me in total seriousness that pet snakes should be fed cherry tomatoes so as not to oppress rodents.

Anyone who imposes vegetarianism on a dog or cat should be charged with animal abuse. Imposing it on a growing child is still worse.

New York City restaurant Eleven Madison Park has cooked up the essence of life under the rule of the sanctimonious liberal elite. It has gone vegan — unless you are a member of the mega-rich. Then you can eat meat in a back room:

This May chef Daniel Humm had announced with much flowery fanfare that his Eleven Madison Park restaurant would reopen in June from its pandemic closure with a fully plant-based vegan menu. But not just any meager meatless menu: It’s 12 courses for $335.

Humm hammered his message home by telling the New York Times the restaurant would no longer serve meat or seafood, huffing, “The current food system is simply not sustainable, in so many ways.”

Keeping a pricey restaurant afloat on sheer moonbattery without offering a normal human diet may also be unsustainable. So Eleven Madison Park offers a private dining room for big-money corporate events.

The private dining room at Eleven Madison Park comes complete with a meat-heavy menu that includes foie gras, beef tenderloin, roasted chicken and pork.

Like the backroom carnivores, Humm is no member of the hoi polloi. He is dating zillionaire ultramoonbat Laurene Powell Jobs. They will still gorge themselves on foie gras after the globalist ruling class mandates that the rest of us have to eat larvae and weeds for the sake of the climate.

As with all things liberal elitist, regardless of whether you can afford Eleven Madison Park, you have to help pay for it. Its connections earned it a $5 million payoff from Biden in Covid relief.

On tips from Mr. Freemarket and R F. Hat tip: American Thinker.

Moonbats sneeringly crow that rumors of Biden’s handlers radically restricting our meat consumption are false. Yet it is obvious that eating meat is among the many freedoms they will take away from us as soon as they have the leverage.

Epicurious self-righteously proclaims that it will no longer publish new beef recipes, because beef has been canceled. Government policy is downstream of culture. It’s only a matter of time until leftists ban meat.

No worries; we can just eat synthetic meat instead.

Since money is believed to be free if Big Government spends it, vegan Ezra Klein of the New York Times wants to “launch a moonshot for meatless meat”:

All we need to do is replace the animals, or at least a lot of them. Technologically, we’re closer to that than you might think. What we need is for government to put money and muscle behind the project — just as it’s doing for electric cars and weatherized homes and renewable energy — so that the future happens fast enough to save the present.

Because Biden’s handlers aren’t wasting enough of our money.

Klein bizarrely blames the virus that the ChiComs apparently cooked up at the Wuhan Institute of Virology on meat consumption, giving Big Government another reason to restrict it. Also, meat is mean to animals that only exist because we raise them for food. Worst of all, eating meat causes catastrophic global warming according to liberal dogma.

At its heart, the American Jobs Plan is a climate bill. But there isn’t a dollar for alternative proteins… That’s worse than a mistake. It’s a failure of policy design. Luckily, it’s easily fixed.

Namely, by throwing massive amounts of other people’s money at meat substitutes that only moonbats would be willing to eat. Klein calls $2 billion “laughably small.”

We already have an alternative protein solution. I wonder how many $billions moonbat bureaucrats will throw at me if I tell them about peanut butter.
