It Kinda Sorta Sounds Like AOC Wants To Tell Us How To Eat

Libs have been desperately trying to explain away the less than ~attractive~ portions of the Green New Deal. They don’t LITERALLY want to get rid of air travel and flatulent cows. It’s just…you know… a goal. They have to start somewhere, OK?

Cue AOC. She tried to explain the whole farting cow part, and she didn’t do that great of a job.

“In the deal, what we talk about is … that we need to take a look at factory farming, period. It’s wild,” she said.

“And so, it’s not to say you get rid of agriculture. It’s not to say we’re going to force everybody to go vegan or anything crazy like that,” she continued. “But it’s to say, listen, we’ve got to address factory farming. Maybe we shouldn’t be eating a hamburger for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Like, let’s keep it real.”

She doesn’t want to force us to go vegan? Wow thank God! Also- who eats hamburgers for breakfast anyway?

On a serious note, the fact that she even had to clarify makes me uncomfortable. If you have to say that you’re not going to force people to go vegan, it’s probably because you once thought about how great it would be to force people to go vegan.

“We have to take a look at everything,” she added.

And by that, she means she needs to examine your meals. Your sausage egg burritos aren’t helping the environment! Tsk tsk!

No, AOC. You don’t get to tell me how to eat EVER. I’ll eat all the darn beef I want. Take all your dumb ideas and shove it.

I am a free citizen of the USA. I can and will eat whatever the hell I want whenever I want. If I want six hamburgers and a beef smoothie to wash it down with, that’s my prerogative. 🤢 pic.twitter.com/DdW0uSnljg

That’s the goal. None of this is actually about the ~issues~. Stuff like climate change is merely an excuse to grow government and control behavior. They use fear as a tool. It’s about control. It always has been and always will be. Never forget that.
