Sargon made a point a little while back as well ... it's about humiliation. The "bugs" in question are always depicted as if raw, the least appealing way possible to western eyes. The media want to be able to make you change your diet to something you loathe, just to prove to themselves that they have the power to do so.
They really are demented little goblins, aren't they?
I can't think of any reason why they're gleefully running stories like this and not even trying to dress it up.
The only conclusion I can come to is that the media actively hates the population it sells to - I don't think this is particularly a stretch - and wants to bully them into eating food that makes them gag.
This is an underspoken point. I've eaten handfuls of bugs in certain dishes and they were like any other soup or fried food once prepared.
But the thought and image of eating squirming bugs that squirt out their juices and guts when bitten into is absolutely disgusting and why I'd never give an inch on this front.
There's nothing like fresh Gagh for a light snack.
A different theory might be that this is another aspect of leftism as spirituality. Eating bugs is another form of penance for them.
I suppose it is a very leftie form of penance if you force somebody else to do penance for your own sins...
Well you see they are the priests of their religion. Their penance is saving the rest of the world by making everyone else eat bugs. They don't have to do the same because they're blessed.
It's more that they want to save your soul, not that they believe in such things.
Yup, apparently saving the soul by chastising the body, whether the guy belongs to your cult or not...
