One thing nearly all these articles do is define "entomophagy" in the first few grafs. This is a subtle way to make bug-eating sound "scientific" And you don't want to be anti-science, do you? You know what kinds of people deny sciencepic.twitter.com/aJUMJjblPt
"Did you know that the real reason you don't like the idea of choking down chitinous patties is because you are, basically, a racist who enjoys genocide and slavery?" LMAO I was waiting for a journo to finally tie this to racism, congrats again to the New York Timespic.twitter.com/BtNpcXdsGu
By eating heaping bowls of maggots, you aren't just saving the environment, but you are undoing centuries of colonialist oppression. Undoing white supremacist ideas about not eating vermin won't be easy. But we must do the work.pic.twitter.com/sKgfvZ6T08
They manage to make me more rayciss not because I've actually become more rayciss but because I can't think of a thing that defies their wishes more than being rayciss. And fuck them.
I get the sentiment but that's actually in line with what they want. "Please take this giant bait to make us angry that also happens to trigger all the crimestop and fear of bad think in anyone not already on your side" "See? We were right - they are racists!"
That's a good point. But I am a rayciss though. I suppose I could hide it, but I doubt I can deny it.
Really? You *are* a thing that has no actual definition other than "bad person"?
Truth. It lacks a definition, so how could it apply?
