This is a good look at the left and the way they really dont like normal people.
Now, the leftists here on U.S. messageboard will tell ia that the left is not teying to end meat consumption.....just like they told us they arent after our gas appliances...
they are lying.....Dutch farmers
are learning this as we
speak...
Today, a person of ordinary means can toss some steaks on the grill on Memorial Day. That is a good thing, in most people’s opinion, but it galls “elite” leftists, who eat steak themselves but are annoyed that the rest of us can afford to do so, too. Hence the Left’s war on meat, the point of which is to drive up prices so that they can afford steak, pork chops, bacon, etc., but you can’t.
As always, “the environment,” in the form of CO2 emissions, is the excuse. But does that actually make any sense?

[T]he war on meat is only just getting going – and it has some very powerful supporters. ESG (environmental, social and governance) rankings and corporate social responsibility checklists reward companies for creating vegan products, even if nobody buys them. Meat taxes are being considered to price it out of our reach. The Dutch government is spending €25bn (£22bn) to buy out its livestock farmers and close down their farms. But it’s all based on some very dubious pseudoscience.
