That is usually my Friday menu. Very comforting.

...they did it to prepare people to cope with less...

Or preparing them for Soylent Tuesdays.

They didn’t do that for health or the environment...they did it to prepare people to cope with less...

See, in the Olden Days, the nation was more morally cohesive and had a better sense of its own history, and therefore could band together in time of war. Rationing during wartime was therefore accepted by the populace.

Today the nation is not morally cohesive, instead, it it amoral and hedonistic. How therefore (absent a real war directed towards an external enemy) to convince the populace of the need for rationing? Health (can be read as narcissism) and the environment (narcissism directed towards a spurious outside cause).

Thanks for posting this. The word “Holodomor” needs to be re-introduced into our vocabulary.

Don’t post these kind of images. Thanks!

How about these?

That is the point of this indoctrination when it comes to "Meatless Whatevers" is to get you use to having less.

To eventually rid themselves of the class enemies.

Hunger is the most potent weapon of all.

So some picture of a Polar Bear doing what it must to do to survive should be the least of your worries.

Along with “Meatless Mondays” I am starting to see the “Wheat is Evil” meme introduced.
