Since we're in fantasy land:
What if grasshoppers carry machine guns?

The thought of rising sea levels and more intense heatwaves are enough to keep you up at night. Not me, slept great last night.
But while we all know the situation is getting more serious....
It's 41 degrees in Fort Worth today. Are we warming or cooling? I can't keep up....

And deprive insect-eating creatures of their sustenance? Do they not understand how the food chain works in the eco-system?

No — and especially NOT to save the planet.

A lot more problems would be solved by eating demonrats.

Go to Peter Luger any night of the week and you will find a leftwing celebrity dining on steak. You could not pay me enough to eat insects. Maybe the leftwing glitterati could create a new trend and let their acolytes eat them.

Nope. But I think all the communist, insane libs should be forced to eat live yellow jackets by the handful for lunch.

I’ve eaten spiders. ants, crickets and worms. None are particularly tasty and would require lots of processing to make their taste and texture appetizing.
I prefer a steak.

The real question, if they really believe this “flat erf” type stuff, and want to take the moral “high road”, leading by example, would these anti-science morons be willing to collectively save Gia, by mass suicide?
In reality, their real goal is total subjugation and power over all people under one government. They could care less about any of this.
Those who really believe this anti-science propaganda are true cannon fodder for totalitarianism!

Plenty of people recoil at the idea of eating “bugs”, but the same people love eating lobsters, crabs and shrimp, or really enjoy honey.Yep. Love all these "bugs of the ocean."
I don't see myself eating bugs but at the same time, when I bake, it's not uncommon to find little bugs in my flour. I don't bother trying to sift them out. I just bake them up and forget about it.

No, that’s why you should eat more to make up for my shortfall. Excellent answer! I'm with you.

No, I like insects, and they serve a purpose in this world.
I would instead eat democrats.
