"UK schoolchildren are treated much like pigs in a factory. Fattened with high-calorie, immensely profitable concoctions tainted to make people overindulge, the troughs are brimming with highly processed foods. The slop is augmented with chemicals to simulate attractive tastes and stimulate more eating. The factory pigs are then weighed and injected with thinning drugs to offset the consequences of poor diet." Great sentences. If they are like fattened pigs, what does that make US children? Maybe they are no longer sentient beings but just cells in an industrial petri dish?
Surely the ethical line between animals and humans is being (deliberately?) blurred. In the name of elevating the so-called "dignity" of animals, the real goal is to reduce compassion for humans as animals -- they are destroying the planet, not miraculous image bearers of God. They must be exterminated like the cockroaches with whom they are now equalized..... This is the message of the WHO, couched in new-age-sounding proclamations. Humans have never much cared for each other, let alone the planet -- now we have globalists preaching only they can be trusted to rescue both. It is a demonic invitation, for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.
Pre-Covid, I knew nothing about Neo-Marxists, post-modernists, or the Frankfurt School. A comment somewhere directing me to read The Road to Serfdom changed everything and I started to try and understand. Luckily old YT interviews were available. Bryan Magee's interviews with the likes of Herbert Marcuse and others are particularly great. I concluded we are creating a class of young very ambitious people who are simultaneously guilt-ridden and believe they must act to alleviate the roots of such guilt. I call them Ubermenschesque because they carry with them religious fervor along with their will to power. While they argue man is not different than a tree or animal and thus must be sacrificed for the greater good, they reveal a Christlike belief. Instead of Christ sacrificing for man, man must be sacrificed for the wider good. Seems pretty religious to me.
It is unfathomable unless understood as a cult. James Lindsay has written well about it. But in every important ethical aspect, it is the EXACT REVERSE of Christianity: no equality, no redemption, no forgiveness, and no salvation. Same pattern for all the neo-Marxist bowel movements -- CRT, Queer Theory, class warfare. All works-based, all lead to endless tribalism and retribution rather than healing. That is the plan -- deconstruction, so the new masters can "save" us from individual liberties. Ironically, those clamoring for "personal identity" seek to enlarge state power to enforce that on others -- they are ultimately statists, demanding the government tyrannically protect their perceived "liberties" to compel others to acknowledge non-existent identities, or identities premised in immorality. The antidote is truth, justice, and equality before the law. My don't they despise all three....
It is satanic indeed. I love James Lindsay. I am midway through his series on Marcuse's Repressive Tolerance essay. For me, listening to old lectures on philosophy has helped me grasp what he says. Word on Fire Institute has videotaped lectures on philosophers including Rousseau and Kant.
John you nailed it. The whole dietary guidelines are built upon the lie that saturated fats cause cardiac risk. This lie was given to us by Ancel Keys. Who Cherry picked his data to show a correlation between fat consumption and heart attacks. He did a study where he had complete control of the diet at a state institution where he took out the saturated fat and replaced with vegetable oils to prove his theory. He lowered the cholesterol levels but the saturated fat group had less cardiac issues and a lower mortality. IE he disproved his own theory. So he hid the results and never published it. But he failed to destroy the data which has been discovered and it was finally published after he died. Yet we still hear none stop that red meat is dangerous to your health. Nothing can be further from the truth. Sugar is the poison that is driving the obesity crisis. There is an excellent YouTube presentation called “sugar the bitter truth”. By a Robert Lustig he goes through how the body metabolizes fructose and how it’s exactly the same as alcohol and it’s why he has 8 yrs with cirosis of the liver just like alcoholics and they have never drank alcohol.
In addition to teaching kids about foods that are unhealthy--sugar, corn syrup, trans fats, highly processed foods, etc.--there are some useful skills that might help. How about teaching kids how to plant a garden, how to cook well, and then how to eat slowly to encourage a more healthy diet? I am so grateful for parents who taught me all three. (Although I must admit that my waist line does not necessarily reflect what I preach.)
I think you might appreciate this voice from the other side of the Atlantic. Since you know of James Lindsay's work, you will recognize the concepts upon which he bases his arguments. He has coined the French as indigenous being colonized. This one is on the genocide of farmers. Yes, he writes intentionally in hyperbolic terms but seemingly in an attempt to wake people up. https://open.substack.com/pub/dupontlajoie/p/the-silent-genocide-of-the-european?r=56y1f&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
I have thought the same thing. When I see DEI folk using technology created by white men - whatever that means because a hundred+ + years ago that term excluded Italians, Irish, and others - to pontificate oppression, I think we should call them oppressors exploiting the labor of others. A silly video was posted of a young black woman with dyed blond hair spewing white hatred. But now that I am better versed in Neo-Marxist rhetoric, I don't take offense. This is all by design.
"The white liberal differs from the white conservative only in one way. The liberal is more deceitful, more hypocritical, than the conservative. Both want power, but the white liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the negro’s friend and benefactor. And by winning the friendship and support of the negro, the white liberal is able to use the negro as a pawn or a weapon, in this political football game that is constantly raging between the white liberals and the white conservatives. The American negro is nothing but a political football, and the white liberals control this ball, through tricks or tokenism, false promises of integration and civil rights. In this game of deceiving and using the American negro, the white liberals have complete cooperation of the negro civil rights leaders who sell our people out for a few crumbs of token recognition, token gains, token progress.

Dr. Lindsay is brilliant, and an amazing resource. He has spoken here in Vermont.....

You mean like the racist colonization of Vermont by vile, toxic, opportunist, social justice carpetbaggers?

It is manipulative and exploitative.

Just yesterday at happy hour my friend mentioned Malcolm X when she was conjuring up what would be her dream presidential ticket.
