    The "eat ze bugs" propaganda is just a counterintuitive psyop.

    >"the world is running out of meat, better start eating ze bugs"
    >nooo! bugs are disgusting! I will never eat them! I would rather go vegetarian before I do that!
    >"ha, got 'em"

    The end goal isn't to make you eat bugs. It's to condition you into accepting vegetarianism and/or veganism.

      it's more cost effective to feed cattle than dogs

      dogs contribute and have some say, even if they will be put down they have some say, some bargaining power, some chance. but cattle exist oblivious and then they are harvested. like the plants they eat. first you were an ape, then you were a dog. now you will be a cow.

      The end goal is to get you to scarf down as much meat as possible.
      Most of the stuff we eat is produced by huge multinational corporations and they don't want to lose market share to a new food source

          "Die early" means die at 70-80 before you start losing a dozen IQ points a year and need a continuous regimen of medical care to eek out something resembling life, of course, but they won't say that.

          The end goal is to get you to scarf down as much meat as possible.
          Most of the stuff we eat is produced by huge multinational corporations and they don't want to lose market share to a new food source

          A diet that fills in the inherent deficiencies of plants with meat can be produced locally. Animals can eat food waste, human waste, anything, anywhere. They do not actually NEED space and stimulation and bla bla bla. You can keep a cow tied to one tree for its two year life before you eat it. And it works really well because what crops you can reliably grow is related to where you live and when, and it's actually quite difficult to work all that land. You can't actually survive as a vegan without the fruits of multinational corporations:
          Diesel fuel and trucks
          Heavy fuel oil and barges
          Jet fuel and cargo planes
          Combine harvesters
          Exploitative third world labor
          Industrially produced supplements and processed, fortified foods

          You see all those multinationals have an arm in every business and if you stop eating meat they will just sell you a meat alternative that is LITERALLY more profitable.

          But if you will never, ever accept that you are a threat to the climate or something because we need unchecked reproduction and the world population MUST reach 16 billion and never fall. Or else the monopoly money ponzi scheme needs restructured and we need to do stuff like deny corporate personhood and re-institute forced labor in place of welfare. The horror.

      They're both Pancrustacea though.

      The subphylum Crustacea includes everything under Pancrustacea except Hexapoda. If you're classifying using cladistics (which exclusively uses monophyletic clades and is generally preferred), then you need to include all of the descendants, which includes Hexapods.
      It's the same reason Paleognaths is preferred when referring to the non-penguin flightless birds as opposed to ratites, because by using the latter you're arbitrarily excluding Tinamous (which have a keel)

          Allow me to recap. The originating post (

          people who are alergic to shellfish can't eat cicadas. shelfish are bugs

          ) alleges that shellfish and insects are one and the same due to a mutual allergen.

          I'll have you know that even mollusks have the very same allergen. I would say it's a bigger stretch to say that octopus & squid are bugs, but if you tell me in writing that you personally recognize these species as insects, I will happily drop the issue. I don't care about being wrong or right on a Laotian poetry slam, I care more about consistency.

    If you eat seafood you're eating inferior meat. You're eating primordial critters dragged from the world's public toilet, the ocean. Weak, snotty, slimy animals with the consistency of rubber once cooked, and entirely lacking in flavor.
    I'd eat whale meat if I didn't care about animal welfare, but that's about it. Nothing else from the ocean goes past my teeth.

      In your moral compass, would it be acceptable to eat fish that was caught in lakes, rivers, and ponds? You very specifically mentioned oceans in your post, and I would imagine that lakes & rivers generally receive better environmental protection than oceans.

      Thing is it really isn't at all. And I say that as a /misc/ chud. In fact, if you look at it objectively, insects and other terrestrial arthropods are a lean, protein packed livestock that require next to nothing to raise (in comparison to large mammals and fowl) and are extremely economically sustainable, and if we got more of our "meat" from invertebrates instead of large mammals and soi, it would free up ludicrous amounts of land for either nature directly or indirectly by vastly decreasing the demand for agricultural land. All you need is a steady stream of cheap/excess produce and you have infinite insect production.

      If zog didn't have to politicize it and push it on people with guilt, westerners would probably be much more open to eating insect based foods. Only reason I don't eat them is because I'm being told to do it and also I'm picky about eating the guts and internal organs (which is something we already do with traditional livestock as well as small fish like sardines). I think lots of others don't like the guts part, which is why crustaceans are normal to eat, as they are bigger and have large meaty parts that can be separated from the organs reliably.

            "Not they aren't" said he, a fat frick who plays video games in his free time.
            It's perfectly plausible that insects are an offshot of a crustacean lineage. In that case, by your idiotic "birds dinosaurs" monophyletic cargo cult nomenclature, they are crustaceans.

            >Technically kinda sorta but not really.

              (adding)
              The monophyletics cargo cultists are pathetic. They literally CLING, they CLING to the hope that genetic and other such inferential studies don't reveal that insects are a clade nested with crustaceans. Why do they hope that? Because it would further erode a till-now useful, flavorful, evocative term "crustacean".
              Why do you hope that? Why do you hope some lineage isn't part of some other? That is a fricking strange hope to have. Look into a mirror. You have such garbage memes internalized that it modifies your entire world outlook, leading you to have bizarre hopes that science doesn't reveal a fact (rather than reacting with pleasant curiosity).
              At what point will you admit your meme of monophyletics is useless, as it just destroys useful terms?

              Again: you are actually hoping insects don't turn out to be crustaceans. I still can't get over the fact what NPCs you are.

              In order for the bony fish clade to be considered monophyletic, tetrapods need to be included within it.
              However even zoologists use "fish" in the traditional sense because in the cladistic sense it is synonymous with "vertebrate" and therefore effectively useless as a term.
