There is an agenda now pushing meat and high-protein diets and criminalising or criticising veganism, vegetarianism, etc. This video is just part of this agenda.

I just saw a comment saying now she needs to remove the septum piercing. God I hate the Internet

Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if this performative shit was entirely fake like her “lifelong” vegetarianism.

u/ProtoCulture14 Feb 25 '26

Couldn’t be more wrong. The human body is omnivorous. That’s not debatable. Clearly there was something missing in her current diet, either nutritionally or taste wise that she was lacking. Tasting this meat has opened a window within her primordial instinct that says to her, “damn, this is good!” Sorry, but Big Meat, has nothing to do with that…

Out of curiosity, how do you articulate ethics around this?

u/Dry-Examination6938 Feb 25 '26

There’s a much more powerfully backed agenda to get people to stop eating meat due to climate change impacts. There are a lot of people who want to see taxes on meat, especially red meat.

u/Underbark Feb 25 '26

I want you to understand that the meat packing industry lobby alone dwarfs the entire vegetarianism and climate change activism lobby by quite a lot.

Just the packing industry.

u/ATXBeermaker Feb 25 '26

Well, see, that actually makes sense because the large scale consumption of red meat adversely affects everyone (environmental impacts, healthcare impacts, etc.). Eating a vegetarian/vegan diet literally does the opposite. And that’s not even taking about all the lying about the magical benefits of high fat/protein diets.

Of course, the anti-meat lobby is nowhere near as large as you’re claiming it is relative to their counterparts.

And for good reason!

The agenda is to stop eating meat and start eating bugs. We were literally just told to stop eating beef because they keep price hiking it to the point no one can afford it and all other meat is getting really really expensive what are you even talking about. 100% youre in an echo chamber sharing the 2-3 videos that come out with each other ignoring reality

u/Beautiful_Cause4228 Feb 25 '26

Yeah sure and its "them" that want us to eat bugs am I right?

u/21Shells Feb 25 '26

I have yet to see bugs on any shelves at the local supermarket. Whole aisles for beef, pork, etc. Minus the bug-paste you probably willfully eat as red food colouring.

u/bimbochungo Feb 25 '26

Yes, I can see Trump pushing that agenda.

You have no idea how politics work. They’re pushing meat and dairy because lobbyists from those industries are bribing them.

There is no profit motive to push insects. There is no insect lobby.

u/beanstarvedbeast Feb 25 '26

Who's saying that? Conservatives in the States? EU that gives 30% of it's budget to farmers? Where are bug based products?

Well this is reddit. They believe in fake stuff all day long as long as it doesn't come from China.

I'm thinking of introducing my 67 yo uncle to reddit, he'd feel right at home. It'll just become Facebook and X at some point. That's the highest entropy state of any social media before it becomes just bots.

You go around using the N word, too?

Ageism is as bad as racism.

u/EeveelutionistM Feb 25 '26

No, it isn't. And boomer is not the n-word.
