The eco-fascist agenda is on its way to Australia, as the government regulatory agency just approved the sale of synthetic meats. In an attempt to usher in a global Orwellian dystopia of social control and propaganda, the promised land of ‘net zero’ demands we eat synthetic meat in order to ‘save the planet.’
In 2005, historian Michael Zimmerman described ‘eco fascism’ as a phenomenon in which states would force individuals to self-sacrifice their own interests at the behest of nature. When it first emerged in the 2000s, we heard about preventing global warming, overfishing, deforestation, and burning fossil fuels.
In the wake of policies like the European Green Deal, whose goal is to achieve net zero by 2050, do we still have the human right and freedom of choice to eat what we desire?
Perhaps not. European farmers are being muscled out of business by cheap food imports, high taxes on farmers, and investment in synthetic meats. Already, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, and Denmark have invested in synthetic meats. Denmark has perhaps made the most bold move of all EU nations. The Minister of Food, Agriculture, and Fisheries, Jacob Hensen, announced a radical transformation to plant-based foods.
He said, “It is with immense pride that I present this action plan on behalf of the government. Transitioning to a more plant-centric diet aligns with the Official Dietary Guidelines and is pivotal for reducing our climate footprint.”
Despite our splendid isolation from other continents, Australia is already showing signs of giving into the eco-fascist agenda. Alarmingly, Australian food regulators have claimed that synthetic meat is ‘safe’ to eat. The conclusion isn’t surprising given that the Albanese government passed the climate change bill in 2022. Like Europe, Australia intends to meet net zero at any cost.
When we put all the pieces of the puzzle together—future population predictions, human-driven environmental damage, cell-based meats are our manna from heaven, the solution to all of our self-inflicted problems. But the Australian government has made a very bold move. The government’s food regulators have claimed it is safe. They have stated:
“There are currently no permissions or requirements in the Food Standards Code for cell-based meats. FSANZ’s view is that cell based meats would be captured within existing standards in the Code and require pre-market approval”
How can cell-based meats exist within the existing standards of the code?
By definition, it is synthetically created through a range of molecular, biotechnological, and laboratory engineering processes. Such a conclusion is absurd but unsurprising.
While synthetic meat soothsayers insist synthetic meat is safe, the FAO-WHO study of 2023 begs to differ. What exactly do they mean by safe? We must remember that the FAO-WHO study just found 53 problems associated with synthetic meats. These include the identified presence of microplastics, heavy metals, nano plastics, allergens, antibiotics, and prions, among others.
The food regulator’s announcement that cell-based meat is safe comes after the 2022 Senate committee produced a report and regulatory recommendations. The report was titled, “Don’t mince words—the definition of meat and other animal products.” The report recommended a clear regulatory system for clearly identifying cell-based meats and organic meats. Australians have a right to know what they are eating, and cell-based meat products risk ‘falsely advertising’ their products on Australian shelves.
Adding to an already hyperactive political ecosystem of climate alarmism, the CSIRO has claimed that by 2050, the human population is expected to reach nine billion and that the meat industry will be able to feed a growing population.
Then there’s the guilt. Already a rabid social contagion, climate alarmism demands we cleanse our collective guilt by adopting anything and everything to reduce the ‘evil’ human footprint on the planet.
If you believe that we are ‘killing’ the planet, where do you draw the line? What if saving the planet meant ingesting potentially dangerous and unsafe foods?
Before Australians decide to eat ‘synthetic meat’, they should be aware of all of the evidence available, not just the ideologically driven examples that suit the narrative that environmental alarmists attempt to pedal.
The future
In the not-too-distant future, Australian governments will tell us that synthetic meat is the only ethical and pragmatic alternative, and the battle lines have already been drawn. A newly formed synthetic-based meat company has claimed it intends to produce hundreds of thousands of metric tonnes of meat by the year 2030 while NSW farmers have expressed concerns over the synthetic meats.
Before the government can hamstring farmers as they have in Europe, Australian farmers must find ways to deal directly with consumers. The time will come when the Australian government will attempt to bottleneck Australian farmers with taxes, external competition, and high fuel prices. Australians must also brace themselves for tentacles of ‘eco fascism’ too. While the totalitarian agenda can manipulate, drive, and push the public towards synthetic meats, ultimately people will decide what they put into their mouths.
