    I do not like the policies and ideals of the current US government. I harshly criticize them! Nyah!

    Looks like I’m good. Plus I can eat the crickets.

      Personally I dislike their restrictions on people’s bodily autonomy, their pandering to the right wing, and their opposition to the seizure of the means of production by the working class. Their refusal to take sufficient action in the face of the climate crisis, and refusal to fund passenger rail is also big. Further discontent is imperialism at home and abroad as well as our treatment of our indigenous peoples and our refusal to give land back so they can steward it in the responsible ways that they did for thousands of years.

      I really dislike this government. But it’s not forcing you to eat bugs. It’s subsidizing the shit out of meat and should stop doing that. Y’all need beans and mushrooms instead but if you’d prefer bugs instead or alongside I’ll let you enjoy them

        You seem fun. However, I never offered you any of my crickets.

        Do you know it’s possible to be aware of every single atrocity committed in our names and still have a sense of proportion and an awareness of what makes for effective speech in an open forum?

          Sorry I was replying to you in agreement while directing my comment at the person you replied to. When I say it like this I get how that comes off. Fuck this right wing conspiracy

            I’ve done that myself. The reply feature is tricky. Seriously, politically confused nazi punks fuck off, but context matters and the software didn’t help this time. We good but just dont buy the cricket snack pack if it doesn’t hit right! Unless you are drinking and they are salty!
