If it was slowly rolled into the zeitgeist as an addon and filler for gaps in our current system, and then expanded as per need or if its found to work better in certain areas outright place, then literally no one would have an issue with it and most would support the idea. In this case, I'm sure plenty places could benefit from an additional food source that isn't being tapped.
But they don't care about any of that. There is no altruism and environmental idea being pushed, those are just the justifications. Its just to take away things you like and replace them instead with humiliation rituals. Its cuckold porn on a societal scale.
This is an important point that I feel is too often overlooked.
No one in their right mind is going to argue that pollution is good or even neutral. I grew up next to a steel mill -- I know very well what those emissions do to a neighborhood. I very much appreciate the gains we made in efficiency over the past half century. I would applaud further gains to maybe someday reduce pollution to negligible levels.
But you can't just snap your fingers and declare it to be so. If the technology isn't ready, you just end up hamstringing yourself to no benefit, because your competitors (China) will just steal all your profit and pollute all that pollution for you.
These things take time.
In any case, I would take environmentalists much more seriously if they gave a shit about the massive amounts of waste that are built into the system for consumers' comfort.
Instead of virtue signaling by giving me a worthless paper straw, why not encourage restaurants to cut down on the hundreds of pounds of food waste they generate every day. And that is just one example out of a thousand.
We could actually make some progress towards climate cultists' goals if they would ever inconvenience themselves for the greater good. But they won't. And they will turn a blind eye to all the rich fucks scooting off on private jets to pontificate about how climate change is the impending apocalypse.
And that is why I discount literally every word they utter... because they are lazy, short-sighted hypocrites who demand instant gratification, even if it is superficial virtue signaling.
Its like most "environmental activism."
