The hell with all this talk, we need to discuss the most imperative threat to our way of life that's ever existed.

Greater than the Barbary Pirates.

Greater than the Kaiser.

Greater than Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Stalin, Ho Chi Min, Castro, and Putin combined.

DeSantis' Democrat challenger compares him to Hitler: 'In a lot of ways' | Fox News

https://twitter.com/BonillaJL/status/148...29891?s=20

Florida agriculture commissioner and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Nikki Fried sat down for an interview Friday and compared Florida's Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

"Instead of listening and trying to govern with the people, he is trying to govern over the people, and, you know, that, I’m sorry, I’m a student of history, too. I saw the rise of Hitler," Fried, 44, told podcast cohost Melissa Ross on Florida public radio on Friday regarding Florida’s Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis.

When Ross asked Fried if she was making a direct comparison between DeSantis and Hitler the agriculture commissioner said "In a lot of ways, yes."...
When all else fails…throw out a Hitler reference. Rolleyes
HUNGER STRIKE DAY 2: Strikers begin to feel health consequences, remain committed | Fox News

WASHINGTON – Hunger strikers for voting rights legislation began to feel the health consequences on the second day of their strike outside the U.S. Capitol, but remained committed.

"I'm feeling very tired, cold and hungry, obviously, but committed to being here," Un-PAC co-founder Shana Gallagher told Fox News Digital. Gallagher said she's also "having trouble sleeping" and experiencing "really bad" headaches.

West Virginia graduate student Dominic DiChiacchio said "the hunger is starting, but it's still so early, so the morale is still really high."

One of the around 40 youth hunger strikers had to leave to see a doctor (get something to eat) after feeling lightheaded, but everyone else remained okay, Gallagher told Fox News Digital. The group has their vitals checked twice daily...

"It's urgent we need to get this passed. I mean, that's why we're putting our bodies on the line out here in the cold, starving, the hunger pains, the mental pains, the mental fog. That's nothing compared to losing our democracy," DiChiacchio said... 

My eyes just got stuck in the roll position.

WAKE UP AMERICA
There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt. The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist regime.
In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked: Do you know how to catch wild pigs?
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line.
The young man said that it was no joke. You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free corn.
When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming.
When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence.
They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side.
The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again.
You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom.
They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America.
The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time.
One should always remember two truths: There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
If you see that all of this wonderful government "help" is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America, you might want to send this on to your friends. If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life, then you will probably delete this email. But, God help us all when the gate slams shut!

I like vegetables. I'll try anything once. But to me it seems like if you're going to take cheap vegetables and engineer them into a meat-like substance, shouldn't the product be less expensive than meat? Otherwise, what's the point?

I was in Costco the other day, and I read the ingredients on a package of that "plan based meat" and the list of ingredients reads like a 7-eleven burrito.  I can't see how that would be any better for you than meat.

And by the way, red meat is bad for you.  But this fake meat?  I wouldn't eat that, either.

The product cost probably is lower, but that doesn't mean the retail price needs to be cheaper.

I know some people who have been vegan for awhile.  They don't miss meat and cheese and they don't want this kind of thing.  It's the people who have somehow become convinced that they should be vegan or vegetarian but don't have the willpower to do it that get excited when stuff like this comes out.

I think it is more that no one wants to be last to adapt and suffer the cancel culture consequences.  Better to stay ahead of the curve.
