Where did the bug eating talk start? I've not been offered any bugs since those grasshopper candies from Archie McPhee when I was a kid. Is it another dog whistle thing?
It's a far right conspiracy theory, that OP's trying to tie to legit criticism of the CIA's atrocities despite having nothing to do with each other-- all in order to try to hide the fact that it's literally part of the Great Replacement conspiracy.
I love those. Another good one is listing:
- Vietnam
- Afghanistan
- Iraq
- Ukraine
And saying something ironically, like "this time it will be different."
They are purposefully hiding one tiny bit of detail thought, that Ukrainian war was started and is being fought by Russia not the US.
To be fair, the Russians also fought in Afghanistan and Vietnam.
But ya, Afghanistan is a good analogy of the US CIA arming local militias and ultimately defeating the Russians in a long drawn out war of attrition. Thankfully there were no long term consequences to the US.
Perhaps you are being sarcastic, and I can't identify it. Perhaps what I think is common knowledge is not so common: Osama bin Laden was one of the people the CIA trained in the 80s.
I've seen some scientists talk about it, but not as a "mwahahaha, we're going to force these people to eat bugs!" kinda deal like some people seem to imply, but more just as a "this is more efficient for growing protein than traditional livestock, so there would be environmental benefits if we can persuade people to switch to it" sorta deal.
Frankly I feel like a lot of the discussion is kinda silly, advocating that there would be benefits if people try to replace some of their meat intake with insect protein is not the same thing as forcing people to eat bugs. The intention behind advocating that is not malicious, they don't mean just any old bugs but generally farm raised ones, and besides, people already eat bugs anyway. Plenty of cultures throughout the world have dishes involving them in various ways, and beyond that, even in the western countries that a lot of this discussion happens in to my knowledge, people eat very bug-like creatures all the time as long as those creatures live underwater. Shrimp for instance.
For it to make sense, You have to begin with the premise that ecology is a lie created by scientists to make money. 
EU approved few insects for consumption as a novelty food and will need to pass defined standards and inspections.
But conservatives, even in US used that as an argument that they will make us feed bugs.
There's also been research into using insect protein as a meat substitute that's a lot less "weighty" than plant protein. Insects, pound for pound, require a lot less land, a lot less feed, and there's been some success in recombining them into other forms of meat, like Beyond Meat has been doing for plant proteins.
Someone watched Snowpiercer and went nuts
I get that. I saw EEAAO and suffered temporary sanity
for me it's been since expo 2000 and I would be actually interested.
Crispy high protein snacks with a low ecological foot print? shut up and take my money!We had lollipops with scorpions and tequila worms in them lol
Klaus schwab - head of the w.e.f. "you will eat ze bugs"
WEF are blatant rightoid trolls
Most people don't even know his name. But yeah, 2030 is approaching fast, gotta get the world ready for fascism and servitude.
I'm gonna lob you a softball. Don't miss it. Both parties in the US suck, but one is openly courting fascists. Which is it?
Aaaa haha holy shit I'm stealing this conversational gambit he so fumbled it
I don't care about politics at all. You tell me. If I wanted to argue with people online, I would probably love politics though.
