  • My wife is Chinese so I lean more in the direction of hating Chinese people 😂 Just kidding I love her to bits.

    I get it though… while I was living in China there were so many things I enjoyed about it that I didn’t often complain. But being back in Europe, the aggravation grows.

    You can say hating the people for what their government does is stupid, but when the people stand so resolutely by their government the hatred goes in the same direction. Unless you’ve lived there, you won’t understand the long process of indoctrination so you won’t have sympathy for their unthinking obedience.




  • The core issue is soil quality. Without sufficient organic content in the soil, all our food, whether it be plant or meat, has drastically reduced nutritional content meaning we need to consume more for the same effect. We’re heading for a global food shortage because of the one key issue. Healthy soil also sequesters an enormous amount of carbon from the atmosphere. So instead of fighting the beef vs tofu wars, we should be focusing on encouraging agricultural practices that enrich soil rather than destroy it. We have about 50 years of crop cycles left before the majority of arable earth turns to sand.

    Shifting your diet to be more plant-based is a good idea, but it’s not the crux of the issue.
