On Reddit threads about this I volunteered something that I had read about the cage free and other labels being meaningless and a marketing Ploy oftentimes and I got a lot of Engagement by people that knew a lot more than I did that were saying that basically all of those labels are meaningless except for I think the pasture one.

These agricorps are heartless, maximizing revenue is their only concern. As such they have Enlisted the federal and state governments to go after the animal rights activists exposing their abuses of animals that could hurt their profits, working on getting them classified as terrorists as we speak I have read in the intercept.

Everything is going to shit here and almost nobody seems to realize it, not to the degree they should realize it.

We need to organize.

Al jazeera's now defunct investigations podcast did a piece on the labor files, internal labor correspondence that was leaked to Al Jazeera in regards to their labor establishment's Crusade against Jeremy Corbyn and his supporters that were trying to run a populist reform party and got a lot of support amongst the populace despite establishment labor sabotaging at every turn.

The establishment of Labor hated them, hated them more than the conservatives by a long shot. They ended up using bad faith allegations, of anti-semitism, but also others, often times evidently false allegations that were provably untrue, but they controlled the enforcement mechanism of the party and they drummed them all out.

Of the anti-Semitism allegations, the Jewish people in the party were more likely than the others to be kicked out for anti-semitism. It is about the same as the allegations the current US Administration is making against universities and their students.

So, the aristocratic status quo faction still controls labor, and this shit show of a labor government, the illegalizing the right to protest, declaring direct action protests terrorism and falsely associating anybody protesting the same thing with them to charge them with supporting terrorism, creating a masturbatorbase for the state to have a record of every page somebody has considered whacking off to, as well as having their likeness and ID connected to their IP address so they can see everything you have done and said online, is the result.

All across the West the left versions of parties have been seized by Aristocrats working for the investor class. Which Dooms us to the new right winning eventually across the West supported by fascist Russia and now fascist America, to instill their own far right governments that will try to fix elections to remain in power indefinitely that will naturally degenerate into worse and worse despotism.

Good. The article did not mention if the Palestinian flag was already banned? Of course precious few Palestinians can make it out of the ghetto of Gaza or those of the West Bank being completely hemmed in by Israel.

If I click the link it goes to Reddit right? Can I not see it here?

That is interesting thanks. As an aside an herbal I was doing for a while, Devil's Club, also known as Alaskan wild ginseng, opplopanax horridum, that I harvested for a bit, is a very powerful medicine in a great many ways.

Some of the earlier Russian scientists that were looking at it back when they had Alaska, wrote that they found that it seemed to inhibit the removal of alcohol from your body.

There was a study in British Columbia around 2017 or so where they gave brain damaged rats some super potent form of THC in massive quantities and those rats reprogrammed and rewired their brain damaged brains while the control group did not.

Last summer through fall I restarted drinking after nearly a decade of very light occassional drinking, about 12 or more ipa's a day, two hearted ipa and a local one.

Roomate was cool but drank a liter of scotch a day, happy drunk though, both of us. Worst he did was exitedly tell or play things for you he had previously, especially of his glory days.

I previously quit for a decade almost completely, drinking like you a couple here and there, by restarting running distance, also using kratom to help get started until the endorphins take over.

Physical exertion and alcohol do not go well together, I wanted to go running not drink.

I restarted drinking homebrew by choice just last year. Working on maple wines and other herb infused drinks, with syrup I make, until I start malting barley and growing hops to make ipa. But I do not get falling down drunk and am happy regardless but I choose to get buzzed lately if at home, I may mostly transition to traditional herbals soon though.

Is this a known medical condition, alcohol intolerance?

I know enzymes in the body break down and remove it, and certain people genetically have more or less depending.

Cultures that have been drinking for thousands of years have more of the enzymes, those that just started have way less like the natives in america and I think australia but idk on that. Basically the entire old world has more of the alcohol metabolizing enzymes from eurasia to africa. Not sure of inuits and far northern tribes but if they milked animals in prehistory they probably fermented milk for kefir.

Also women metabolize alcohol less than men due to these enzymes.

So the same amount of alcohol can have wildly more or less pronounced inebriation even before taking tolerance into account.

A lot of of the labels on eggs are meaningless as to the welfare of the animals. Cage free eggs are often raised in giant warehouse concentration camps for instance.

Most of these terms are not regulated, I believe the only term that means anything is like pasture raised if I recall, and even that there is a lot of differences as to the welfare of the animals.

Vassals of the US, and by extension of the connected organized owner class, of corporations. Government is the middleman and the rich control them all.

There is a carrot, It is corruption. There is so much going on behind the scenes right now with these guys. Any carrot would be self-serving by the administration obviously. The president has made 3.6 billion dollars he would not have since he got re-elected, that we know about according to some journalists that looked into it recently.

The amount they have made under the table in deals through surrogates is surely a lot more than that. For reference it is estimated that Putin is the richest person in the world in reality.

The truly great see money as a means to an end, these guys see money as the end.

You haven't seen anything yet as to increasing the debt I am afraid. Every and any excuse they will milk the credit card.

If they do manage to make a supreme leader that sticks they will ad hoc default by over printing money and paying off the debts with that devalued currency.

Probably doing it at the behest of the western oil companies.

Oh I know it, I was referring to the populace being leftist I should have been more clear, all of our cities have right wing fascist police forces it seems. The politicians are subordinate to them not the other way around. They could take down any of our politicians and they know it.

In 2020 and several years before the police were sharing intelligence with the counter protesters, warning them about police actions, telling them where the protesters were going, a resting the protesters and letting those right-wing counter protesters go. But not just there, Berkeley California had something similar, propublica did some reporting about it back at that time.

That thing in Georgia was like the test case. And our great Democratic leader had nothing to say about it let alone to do about it. What a joke, our leaders already think the Republic is dead. The Bill of Rights does not apply.

All for a local protest too, like wtf? It is because the big cities have a leftist streak and the state is run by far right fascists, and they want to subordinate the free spirit of the Cities, not the least because they lost the vote in 2020.

They better hope they are not right because they will be shunted aside and often prosecuted themselves as their underlings stab them in the back and take their positions. Plus the paranoia, like stalin.

Antifa may make the terror list. Environmental groups. Animal rights groups, they are already being classed as domestic terrorists if not officially. Obviously any group opposed to Israel's bullshit.

Protest will basically be illegal if it is disfavored. Something that UK already did. Also in Europe as well they have been moving to illegalize global warming and soon other protests. This is a West wide turn towards illiberalism and despotism.

That could be a tough sell for them now, to call everybody transgender mentally ill as a matter of course. The next logical step would be declaring all gay people mentally ill, then anyone with a fetish that is not very widespread, and so on.

The gun rights people have been tooled to support Republicans with slippery slope arguments. I do not think they would support this at this moment in time. The administration is testing the waters.

Ahh poor tools of state oppression, I am sure they will be able to talk it out with therapists funded by our tax dollars to help them get through this tough time.

The rich abuse our legal systems and it is getting worse.

The president had been involved in more than 10,000 lawsuits just at the time of his first presidency I once heard. Never faced a single real consequence for it.

Partly that is because the state of New York is rotten to the core don't let the D next to their names fool you. They have always been a lousy corrupt state that thinks they are better than everybody else.

There has to be a way to hit these slaap suitors back with lawsuits to make them pay for doing it.

We can learn something from the Antichrist Peter Thiel that took down that news organization what was it called, by sponsoring multiple lawsuits through third parties, taking them down with their publication of Hulk Hogan's Affair or something. Was it Grappler?

Regardless we should do stuff like that, crowdsource funding for lawsuits, maybe via private groups connected to the Fediverse here.
