Funny how big farmers are supposedly an environmental hazard. Now small farmers are even worse.

But flying all over the world in kerosene-burning private jets? That's just fine...

Indeed!

Useless breathers will starve given nothing to eat. Easy-peasy! 🙄

They seem to forget that it's the useless eaters who keep their private jets maintained and flying.

They'll keep the bare minimum of us around to take care of things for them.

Obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, the reduced benefits, the end of overtime and vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it.

And their food. They will starve because who’s gonna feed them? They cannot feed themselves.
