One of the latest GMO Frankenfoods is Piggy Sooy, a soybean genetically engineered to contain pig protein. One or more undisclosed pig genes are spliced into conventional soya to create a soybean with 26.6% animal protein
Moolec, the U.K.-based company that developed Piggy Sooy, is also working on developing a pea plant that produces beef protein. The company claims these transgenic hybrids will provide similar taste, texture and nutritional value as meat, without the high cost of cultured or lab-grown meat alternatives
June 21, 2023, the U.S. Department of Agriculture authorized the sale of cell-cultivated chicken from Good Meat and Upside Foods. Both plan on rolling out their synthetic chicken to “high-end” restaurants across the U.S. first, while they scale up production
Researchers have discovered that CRISPR-Cas gene editing wreaks havoc in the plant genome, causing several hundred unintended genetic changes to occur simultaneously “in a catastrophic event” that ripples across large parts of the genome

‘Treasurer Jim Chalmers’ 6,000-word essay, recently published in left-wing publication The Monthly, shows conservatives were correct in predicting the Albanese Labor government would be a meddling, bigger-spending, anti-capitalist nightmare.
However, while there is an understandable temptation to label Chalmers’ love letter to big government as “socialism”, that’s not quite right.
It embodies something that could prove far worse.
Chalmers’ promise to “redesign markets for investment in social purposes, based on common metrics of performance” sounds innocuous.
As does his purported optimism that “2023 will be the year we build a better capitalism” that is “uniquely Australian”.
However, this supposedly better capitalism, or “values-based capitalism”, as he puts it, is not uniquely Australian.
It’s been virulently propagated internationally for decades by the likes of Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF), under the banner of “stakeholder capitalism”, and is a core component of the WEF’s Great Reset initiative.
The Great Reset is a proposed alliance between big government and big business to “reset” the global economy post-pandemic, by pushing companies to adopt “Environmental, Social, and Governance” (ESG) policies as a condition of operation.
ESG policies are characterised by identity politics and radical climate action, and are determined in part by faceless, unelected corporate elites.
It’s not socialism; it’s neo-feudalism.
ESG policies are the “values” of Chalmers’ “values-based capitalism”.
We know this because his essay bears a striking resemblance to the type of stakeholder capitalism outlined in Klaus Schwab’s 2022 co-written book, The Great Narrative, a sort of sequel to his 2020 book The Great Reset.
This, for anyone who holds right-of-centre values, should be cause for alarm.
Chalmers describes a core component of values-based capitalism as enabling investors “to work out the climate-risk rating of a firm just as a lender can work out a credit-risk rating”.
“In 2023, we will create a new sustainable finance architecture, including a new taxonomy to label the climate impact of different investments. That will help investors align their choices with climate targets, help businesses who want to support the transition get finance more easily…This strategy begins with climate finance,” he continues.
Similarly, in The Great Narrative, Schwab says stakeholder capitalism “welcomes the idea of legislative action to define with precision the benchmarks for ESG reporting and performance”.
“In the same way that companies have an obligation to report their financial results…in the not-too-distant future they will have a similar obligation to report on ESG metrics… governments will make the last call for setting the legal obligations, targets and incentives around ESG standards.”
Ultimately, the purpose of both values-based and stakeholder capitalism is to justify politicians working with corporations to create big government policies, and insidiously exert the kind of control over markets and individuals that, in isolation, is unpalatable to your average voter.
This is the antithesis of democracy.
Jim Chalmers can claim all he wants that his values-based capitalism is the right thing for Australians, but he seems to forget that values are often subjective.
While he may believe that markets geared towards controlling citizen’s behaviour is a moral good, others (like me) believe this is – at best – overly stubborn.
‘Over the weekend images of a bloke in a frock were being lauded as “stunning” and “glamorous”.
He is a big fella who once upon time played AFL and now is the darling of a media pack so out of touch with reality that they print nonsense such as he is now a “she”.
He can change his name to sound more feminine, and even wear a glamorous gown, but it is nothing more than “lipstick on a pig” as the saying goes.
It is appropriation of stereotypes and nothing more.
A frock, make-up and a handbag do not make a woman.
For Fox Sports, The Courier Mail, the Daily Mail and the ABC to report that they do is insulting and ridiculous.
Laidley is male. That is a fact.
News outlets are clearly not interested in printing facts. They choose to sell fiction and expect the rest of us to buy it.
Well, I for one, do not buy it.
I don’t care if it is Laidley or any other bloke appropriating womanhood, it is simply not on. No transgender person can explain WHY they *feel* like the opposite sex without resorting to stereotypes and subjective feelings.
Their “feelings” are not more important than mine or yours. The point is, feelings are irrelevant when dealing with the facts.
Male is male. Female is female. Always was. Always will be, no matter how much lipstick you apply.’
‘The “you’ll eat bugs and like it” agenda is obvious and out in the open. Rarely a week goes by that we do not cover a new aspect thereof. This week’s edition comes from CNN. The channel’s new CEO, Chris Licht, signaled that the network will take a more middle-ground approach versus its traditional liberal positions since the turn of the millennium. Lucht started by firing host Brian Stelter. But it’s still CNN and it’s still mainstream media.
The network provided free advertising for “researchers” at Wonkwang University in South Korea. They presented a “meaty, savory mealworm powder seasoning” at the American Chemical Society fall meeting last week. In Hee Cho, one of said researchers, repeated all the usual talking points: “edible insects are superfoods,” “bugs are good source of protein,” etc. They hope their worm powder will “feel satisfying and familiar to consumers.” But now Klaus and company are taking matters to an even more disturbing level.
It started on September 3, 2019. Magnus Söderlund, a professor at the Stockholm School of Economics, did an interview on TV4 that day. The segment focused on “mannisko-kötts branschen,” which literally translates to “the human flesh industry.” While invoking “climate change,” Söderlund, who is also a behavioral scientist, said that human beings can be “tricked…into making decisions.” He went on to say that everyone needs to be “awake to the idea” of eating human flesh to save the environment.
Fast forward to July 23, 2022. The New York Times published an article entitled, “The Taste of Cannibalism.” The article talks about a recent strings of books, television shows and movies that makes humans “look…delicious to one another.” Granted the article isn’t as blatant as the Söderlund interview. But just like the “eat bugs” narrative started out slow and quickly accelerated this year, the same thing is likely with cannibalism. Stay tuned.’https://thecovidblog.com/2022/08/30/cannibalism-rockefeller-foundation-12-more-sudden-deaths/
