Despite the alternative media pushback against eating insects, there are actually bugs in our food already, and have been for a long time - even if there far fewer insect contaminants in food today than in the past. But these “food defects” - according to the FDA - are certainly different than the gimmick of insect candy, or the attempt to replace animal protein with insect protein as part of a plan to reduce resource and water usage. In the latter case, however, things like oats and lentils are forgotten, as are veggie or mushroom burgers forgotten for gm-soy-fake-meat and regular meat burgers.
So much of our food, including Halloween candy, has insect parts or derivatives in them already, from carmine to cochineal. And despite food colorings possibly causing infertility, many will eat them while citing infertility as the reason they refused mRNA technology. Paleo diets are also very popular today although our ancestors probably ate more insects, along with roots, seeds, plants, etc., rather than giant hunks of meat bought at a grocery store. They also died at 30 and pooped in holes. For others, you can’t be pro-dairy and anti-‘rape culture’.
In the blend of all these contradictions we find the use of chemicals and genetic engineering conveniently forgotten. The opposition to eating bugs and the WEF is a right-wing version of virtue signaling and disgust, despite the presence of bugs in our food forever. The same push is also advocated for by left-wing virtue signalers who ignore simple alternatives to meat. Eating bugs is not about peasant food, it is about demoralization and dehumanization. That is the candy coated conspiracy which grows from clicks, cash, and clout. It is a world of double think and tribalism.
