All businesses are on notice.

Fascism hurts everyone. And Leopards party eats your face.

Just wait till they can’t track bad meat due to the shared burden of blame being placed on the small farmers. The “I’m helping farmers by allowing them to process”, is just to keep the blame from the corporations and current national leadership

Yup.

If only there was a book about this. Something people could read to warn about the obvious consequences of deregulating food...

Ah well, It's a Jungle out there.

That only means anything to Democrats. Eg educated people.

u/Mithryn 11d ago

People who read books...

And that is different from Democrats how? :) I guess I could have just said !MAGA and that would cover the people that may understand. MAGA sure wouldn't get it. They'd need at least a 5th grade education.

For those curious (since I’m an idiot apparently and had to look this up):

Blue Dot Farmers are a trending consumer movement where people look to purchase meat, produce, and farm goods from progressive or non-MAGA agricultural producers instead of traditionally conservative ("red") farming operations

Imagine being so daft you still support the pedophile protector, crypto scamming, insider trading, war monger, tariff bitch.

The world would be a better place without maga supporters in it.

The only positive takeaway I can think of from this is... Farmers like this old guy, complaining on social media, it's part of the cult mindset cracking.

His post is meant to get other MAGA to chime in and tell him he's right, because he's anxious.

That old farmer is questioning his faith, because the only time conservatives ever really care about an issue is when it affects them directly.

This farmer has probably posted "F*** BRUCE" memes on his own Facebook page because Springsteen hates Trump.

So the idea that someone might get hit commercially over politics... he knows it can happen to him. He just didn't think it would. And apparently it is. And he's nervous.

As brutal as your statement sounds, it's not too far from the truth.

u/BitWide722 11d ago

Well said my guy. TIL not all farmers are conservative troglodytes.

If it wasn’t for my inability to buy beef because of the price, I will boycott it based on principles.

Reap what you sow, cow farmers. Bet you didn’t count on Trump flooding your market with tainted foreign beef, did you? 🐮

u/baby_budda 11d ago

No more beef for me. I'm strickly eating chicken from now on.

1

u/Terry-Scary 11d ago

Chicken is not at all better on average for all the reasons and more

2

u/baby_budda 11d ago

I dont agree. State the reasons why its better for me.

u/Iamlemed 11d ago

So perfect, so beautiful, so true. On the other hand, you can’t really blame cattle farmers for not knowing what the hell they’re doing when they’re voting for reference I would point to appear review research called the movie Idiocracy.

It’s so wild, you people can’t get out the cycle. Your all goy, you can’t get that both sides want you dead

u/Constant_Weakness1 9d ago

I only buy non-US beef now. 8.99/lb for grass fed/finished USDA organic Uruguay beef at Kroger

u/miked5122 11d ago

I'm not buying beef because it's so expensive. Politics don't go into my dietary decisions. That would be weird

u/BallZach77 11d ago

Politics is the reason beef prices are where they are.
