Are You Willing to Starve for the "Greater Good?"

"The strategy paper notes that Germany’s agricultural and food systems generate approximately one quarter of its greenhouse gas emissions. And to meet its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2045 it needs to transform how food is produced.
“The transformation of the entire food system towards a plant-based diet is the most important adjusting screw in the nutrition sector to achieve our national and international climate, biodiversity, and sustainability goals.”
Organic farming and promoting seasonal, regionally grown, plant-based foods are some of the transformation strategies proposed. We think the national nutrition planners are asking for trouble.
Whenever a central planning authority has commanded what crops to plant, and the means and methods for agricultural production, disaster has followed. In fact, top-down planning of food production has been responsible for the world’s greatest collective famines.
The rollout of centralized agriculture by the Soviet Union was responsible for an estimated 6 to 9 million human deaths in the Soviet famine of 1930 to 1933. Gosplan’s five-year plans missed the mark, spectacularly. Alas, more struggle was needed.
Similarly, Mao’s Great Leap Forward some 30 years later brought on the Great Chinese Famine. As the production quotas of planned farming fell short, something rather curious happened. The numbers reported to the central government increased. Everything looked great on paper.
But everything wasn’t great. In truth, everything was terrible. The human death toll estimates for this man induced starvation range from 15 to 55 million.
Nonetheless, the planners are at it again. All for the supposed intent of controlling the weather."

The real intent is to reduce the human population and to subdue into slavery those who survive.
%^&* that!
These criminal traitors deserve a trial and execution, as soon as possible.
NIFO.

While the initial steps into a Vegan Lifestyle come with some health gains. (Mostly from removing junk foods). After 2yrs, many people have to start giving it up.
Frankly, it simply cannot work. It makes no sense. But they admit that they don't do it to be healthy...
Anyone wanting to help your teenagers out, have them read The Vegetarian Myth by Lierre Keith. (FWIW, she has recovered a lot of her health, with permanent bone damage remaining, by going carnivore!)
Also, 2yrs is about how long it takes for severe nutrient deficiencies to become obvious.
Anyways... The answer is NO!
I will not sacrifice my health for some brain dead morons who can't think 60 seconds into the future.
Imagine a world where let animals graze on grass, and fertilize the ground in a regenerative farming way. Where we did not need to poison everything, and use so much fertilizer.
Where we lived a bit more in harmony with nature.
Where we took the time to know our ranchers, butchers, egg producers...
The biggest downside to capitalism has been separation of job duties to such an extreme, that people IGNORANTLY think food comes from Grocery Stores (Sad but true).
I am not saying we need to go Amish...
But somewhere between the two extremes I think we can do quite well... And live better, happier and richer lives.
"Under Capitalism, man exploits man, but under Socialism the opposite is true."
C'mon Man!
Have some cake....
It is infuriating to see all of the hangers on who think that they will somehow be in the ''ruling class" when the new world order kicks in.
I remember giving credit to the Union leaders in Atlas Shrugged. As vile as they were, they knew that the ruling class would sell them out as soon as it suited them.
This is an Objectivist forum, isn't it?
I will gladly give up my tofu and kale salad to support the effort.
"In their sties with all their backing
They don't care what goes on around
In their life, there's something lacking
What they need's a damn good whacking!"
Mush for us peasants while they feast on steak and lobster.
as colonists. Sorry, no benefits or transfer payments; you're criminals.
Fingerprints and dna from everyone.
If they survive maybe they can lead a revolution or me consenting slaves
like the Australians have become.
