"The Right’s ‘Natural’ Meat Obsession Is a Regressive Fantasy" by @sentientmedia

<💬>
Another component for Kennedy of what constitutes “natural” is taking on things like red food dye, seed oils and ultra-processed foods — while promoting tallow, raw milk and grass-fed beef.

Vegans often are faced with fallacious arguments, and one of the most common is the Naturalistic fallacy.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturali

However, this is often a bad faith disguise. The use of naturalistic fallacies in these contexts, such as the claim that consuming animals is "good" because it's natural, is a disguise for another more insidious fallacy: the traditionalist fallacy or "appeal to tradition".

simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appe

The traditionalist fallacy is, in this context, the argument that "consuming animals is good because we've done it for thousands of years".

Traditionalism is heavily political, as the people are finding out again in places such as the US. It's sometimes known as "paleoconservatism", and it should be no surprise that the popularity of the "paleo diet" culturally connects to this.

Conservatives, ever since the rise of modernity (end of 'traditional' society, end of monarchism and feudalism) have been trying to reinvent the past through pseudointellectual and pseudoscientific efforts. This has been at the heart of incredible amounts of suffering and horror since then. I have some notes on that on my pinned thread: veganism.social/deck/@veganpiz

Bullshit & snake oil are not vegan.

This is partly why they want everyone to get covid over and over until they become disabled or die.

And isn’t this packaging of risky assets (after deregulation of course) what caused the last bubble?

He got involved in this back in 2020.

From the link:

“With the REIT model, instead of buying a single condo, you buy a share in a company that owns 100 or 200 condos. This investment vehicle was established by Congress in the 1960s, opening the doors to large-scale real estate investments for smaller investors. It’s a model that has enabled real estate hedge funds to buy up large swaths of thehousing market, driving up demand and prices. Recently, companies have begun applying a REIT-like model to land.”

Trump’s "Crypto Reserve" is a world historical grift - Corruption doesn’t get much more blatant than this.

'The boondoggle is so obvious, and so clumsy, it barely even feels like a scam. Instead, it functions more as an open declaration of Trump’s contempt for the public, his office, and for the rule of law. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live in an authoritarian kleptocracy, this is it.'

Public Notice · Trump’s "Crypto Reserve" is a world historical griftVon Noah Berlatsky

"Business leaders are paying as much as $5,000,000 to meet one-on-one with the president at his Florida compound, sources tell WIRED, while others are paying $1,000,000 apiece to dine with him in a group setting."

They have the power to influence Trump: halt the tariffs, #DOGE #firings... Each exec should take turns calling him, so he receives calls 24/7.

His quid pro quo corruption is Putinesque.
