On Saturday I wrote about the potential for mass culling of dairy cows in the US, in response to growing fears about bird flu. Headlines have suggested that the poultry industry has valuable lessons for the dairy industry in containing the spread of this still largely benign respiratory disease. Since 2022, 100 million poultry have been slaughtered in the US, and even if we haven’t quite reached the stage where so-called experts and officials are saying we must kill large numbers of cows, I don’t think we’re far off, frankly.
Deborah Birx—a key player in the COVID-19 pandemic—has said we need PCR-testing of herds right now, which will only serve to inflate the number of cases massively, and it’s not hard to see how rising cases, perhaps in conjunction with the emergence of a new, more dangerous, strain of bird flu, could lead to the death of thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions of cows. Remember, six million cows were killed by the British government in 2001 to prevent the spread of foot-and-mouth, a pretty mild disease that infected a little more than 2,000 animals. The carnage was apocalyptic. The British government considered using napalm to dispose of the corpses, there were so many.
My main point, in writing that piece of analysis, was to suggest that mass culling could serve to kill two birds with one stone, as the old proverb has it.
On the one hand, mass culling would make it very clear that the bird-flu crisis really is just that: a crisis. Maybe even the beginning of another pandemic. We’re being told there will be a bird-flu pandemic: it’s just a matter of time. Two days ago, former CDC director Robert Redfield said exactly that.
And on the other hand, mass culling would also serve a useful purpose furthering the climate-change agenda, by helping, through artificial scarcity, to wean us off those awful unhealthy animal products that are destroying the environment and our health—or so we’re supposed to believe.
Mass culling has already been proposed as a strategy for the Irish government to meet its climate targets. Last year, the Irish government suggested killing 200,000 cows over a period of three years, because it wants to cut 25% of the nation’s agricultural emissions by 2030.
Agriculture and the foods we eat are a huge part of the climate-change agenda. The rulers of the universe and the global NGO-media-corporate combine waste no opportunities to tell us that traditional farming, and livestock farming in particular, is bringing our world to the edge of disaster. Our “addiction” to meat, especially in the West, needs to be “cured.” Fast.
But that “cure” will not come through consumer choice, that much is perfectly clear. We know this beyond a shadow of a doubt. Consumers don’t want to give up meat and other animal products. A majority of Australian men would rather die ten years early than give up meat. Even in food shortages, the vegan aisles and the alternative-protein sections in stores and supermarkets remain full: we saw this during the pandemic, and it made for some pretty funny memes.
The “answer,” then, is to take consumer choice out of the equation altogether. By hook and by crook—through a combination of inflation, artificial scarcity, social pressure, and carbon taxes and other regulations—ordinary people are going to be priced out of animal foods. World governments won’t ban meat. You just won’t be able to buy it as anything other than a luxury. But there’ll be plenty of plant-based meat and insect burgers, and through sheer desperation and boredom you’ll give in and start eating them instead because you want something that vaguely resembles the real thing to go between two buns with some lettuce and mayo when you get home from work in the evening.
So what do we—the people who want to eat meat—do about this? How do we fight back?
Well, we could start by taking a leaf out of Ron DeSantis’s book.
I’ve probably been a bit hard on Ron DeSantis in recent months, because of his embarrassing presidential run, but now that he’s hung up those special cowboy boots and stopped pulling that bizarre smile, it’s easy to recognise him for what he is: a really good state governor.
DeSantis demonstrated that last month by becoming the first governor to ban lab-grown meat in his state. It’s now a second-degree misdemeanour to produce or sell lab-grown meat in the Sunshine State.
DeSantis knows what’s up. Having put his name to the bill, he said he wanted to protect Florida’s “vibrant agricultural industry” against “globalist elites” and “an ideological agenda that wants to finger agriculture as the problem, that uses things like raising cattle as destroying our climate.”
“This will be people who will lecture the rest of us about things like global warming, they will say you can’t drive an internal combustion vehicle, they will say agriculture is bad, meanwhile, they’re flying to Davos in their private jets.”
Alabama has now followed DeSantis’s lead, and it looks like Arizona and Tennessee will do too. Forgive me if I get ahead of myself, but this really could be the start of a nationwide fightback against fake food and the entire climate-change agenda it’s a part of.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m not generally an advocate for government telling people what they can and can’t eat. Government interventions in diet over the last century have been an unmitigated disaster. The propagation of bad corporate-sponsored science and outright lies like the Lipid-Heart Hypothesis—the theory that cholesterol and saturated fat from animal foods cause heart disease—have made us sicker than ever and placed us at an even further remove from the life-giving foods we need to thrive as human beings. Corporations control the food supply to an unprecedented degree, with the collusion of government, and most of us eat a steady diet of ultra-processed food sold to us wrapped in plastic (and also full of it).
The simple fact is, though, that we can’t buy ourselves out of this mess as consumers. Buying as much meat and eggs and cheese as possible is not going to stop anything. It certainly won’t stop the government from culling dairy herds or imposing carbon taxes on the most “polluting” foods like meat and eggs and cheese. We must have political representation and a platform that states, without qualification, our basic need for nutrient-dense animal foods. That’s what my book The Eggs Benedict Option is about.
Of course, legislation banning products like lab-grown meat would be just the beginning. There would have to be other legislation too—legislation to make it easier for small farmers to produce and compete, legislation to prevent corporations and billionaires like Bill Gates from gobbling up huge tracts of prime farmland and using it to grow Frankenfood GMOs or simply taking it out of agricultural use to drive up prices. Our food system needs to change, radically. The globalists are right about this. They’re just wrong about the how and why.
I often hear people say “you can’t legislate your way out of a crisis,” but actually you can. At the very least, I think it’s a strong start.
