Meat for Me but Not for Thee: Why the Climate Summit’s Menu Hypocrisy Was by Design

Many are reporting that the succulent meats served during last week’s COP28 Climate Summit were in poor taste or even a snafu committed by a group of people who are starting to demand that the world stop eating real meat. It was definitely in poor taste but it wasn’t a snafu.
This was by design.
According to Paul Sacca at The Blaze:
The United Nations has been lecturing everyone not to eat meat for years and is expected to soon release a report calling for reduced meat consumption. Yet in a hypocritical development, meat is prominently featured on the menu at the United Nations’ COP28 climate summit.
Fox News reported, “Among the food options offered for attendees are The Hungry Hub, which offers beef and meat; Philly Jawn by Ghostburger, which offers burgers and Philly cheesesteaks; Swaggers, which offers smoked ribs and smoked wagyu burgers; and Mattar Farm Live Cooking, which serves ‘unbelievable smoked meats’ and ‘melt-in-your-mouth BBQ.’”
Despite offering a bevy of meat options at the United Nations climate summit, the U.N.’s Food & Agriculture Organization is set to publish its first-ever global food systems’ road map during an upcoming COP28 session, which will demand countries like the United States to eat less meat.
The Business Standard reported, “The global food systems’ road map to 1.5C is expected to be published by the United Nations’ Food & Agriculture Organization during the COP28 summit next month. Nations that over-consume meat will be advised to limit their intake, while developing countries — where under-consumption of meat adds to a prevalent nutrition challenge — will need to improve their livestock farming, according to the FAO.”
So, we have rich people flying in private jets to stay in luxury accommodations in Dubai where they eat high-end meat products that they want to outlaw. Did they miss a virtue signaling opportunity? Of course. But the message from all the opulence wasn’t intended for us. It was intended for the attendees.
In short, the narrative they delivered was that there’s no contradiction between wanting the rest of the world to live in poverty while eating lab-grown meat and cricket burgers while still allowing the elites to live luxurious lives. That message was well received by attendees and will be spread to the rest of the elites.
In other words, they don’t have to worry about their own lifestyles being harmed by the draconian mandates being proposed. Those mandates are for the lower classes. The elites will be just fine.
On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I went into more details about why they need to send this message to their “elite” members.
