George Orwell was spot on. We are there.

Exactly!
We all saw how their ‘agenda’ works, during the PLANdemic in 2020.

In the late 90’s they had a minor league professional ice hockey team
named the “Macon Whoopees”.

Well said.

After condemning pig meat, will they burn books written by Francis Bacon?

Probably.

I believe they are already renaming things named for Roger Bacon.

There is something delicious about glorifying bacon.

“We’re happy because we’re sad. We’re always feelin bad” “How do you feel” “Terrible” “um, that’s good.” “we’re happy because we’re sad.” From an old cartoon that I can’t find anymore, featuring frogs with dishes of water in their heads, kind of like early snowflakes, 50’s or so.

“There is too much bacon.”

I’m on a no sugar/low carb regimen, but ‘splurge’ once in a while, and bacon is included.

The Physicians Committee promotes plant-based diets

Pigs, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, deer, rabbits, etc. all eat plants.

I eat pigs, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, deer, rabbits, etc.

My diet is most certainly plant-based.

Bacon is *loaded* with the flavor umami, aka savory. Far more than most foods.

Vegetarians, in particular, lack savory in their diet, which is why bacon is the one thing that tempts them to break their diet.

Just say "HELL NO!" to such interest groups.

The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) is a non-profit animal liberation research and advocacy organization based in Washington, D.C., which promotes a plant-based diet, preventive medicine, and alternatives to animal research, and encourages what it describes as "higher standards of ethics and effectiveness in research." Its tax filing shows its activities as "prevention of cruelty to animals."

LOL! Had a little Spanish Drill Sergeant in Basic training, 1991, that used to say that! He was hilarious and would be rubbing it in that he was going home and night and “making’ bacon”.
