Correction, they care about being protected from their own customers - that’s what this whole national guard in cities thing is about, keeping folks away from the wealthy.

Who could have possibly guessed?

Don’t worry, at least the billionaire parasites and their offspring will survive in their underground shelters!

Well, yeah, they always do. Republican admins always leave the economy in the shitter and saddle the nation up with debt so that the incoming Democratic admin has to spend all of their time bringing the economy back up to speed rather than implementing effective reform.

Uhhh, so much for the free market Republicans spent decades championing

Well, yeah, no shit - that’s how tariffs work

Lmao. Seriously though it’s exposure; beef, chicken and pork are the cheapest and most common animal proteins available to pet food manufacturers so they’re in just about everything. If for some reason the animal has an immune response and those proteins are present at the time the immune system can decide that they’re the cause and the animal then develops an allergy or sensitivity to them. With limited ingredient or single protein foods you’re just dodging the proteins most pets are pre-exposed to and feeding them one that doesn’t cause their immune system to think they’re under attack.

One of our cats is so allergic to poultry (chicken, eggs, etc) that he’ll scratch and chew himself bloody if he eats it consistently. We had to switch to rabbit and fish based foods or he was an unhappy creature. Just giving him a cat treat with chicken as an ingredient has him scratching his neck immediately and he’ll have a couple of fresh scabs by the next morning.

Good, now keep them derailed indefinitely

Fair enough, roo protein cat food is about the same cost here as rabbit or venison but I’m assuming they’re all a bit over priced

We pivoted from real activism to bumper stickers and yard signs and campaign donations to candidates who signalled the right wealthy class social virtues in the 90s and haven’t looked back

Sorry, Amazon has billions more free speech tickets than you do

But how would we know if that poster’s a vegan if they didn’t lecture us?

Look into rabbit or kangaroo, depending on where you’re located they could be reasonably priced vs beef. Pets with common protein allergies usually don’t have reactions to those, or venison for that matter.

Real had an office near ours when I worked in SF during the dotcom bubble. We’d walk past their loading dock and the company brand placard at that entrance always had a sheet of paper with BUFFERING written on it thanks to some brilliant motherfucker.

Even if trump choked on a hamberder and expired tomorrow billionaires would find a way to drive his anamatronic corpse to continue playing snake charmer to these idiots. They’re utterly committed to whatever worldview is fed to them via their propaganda fire hose and they’re never, ever, going to admit that the world is a big scary place full of hard problems that don’t have simple comforting solutions like “illegal brown people stealing all the jerbs” or “the tariff button will fix everything, trust me bro.”

They’ve finished downloading enough of the new narrative to resume playback. They’re like realplayer in the 1990s, sometimes they have to buffer for a bit before operating normally again.

Now hear me out, I have a modest proposal…

I mean I’m all for these idiots spiraling down into LLM driven psychosis, at least that makes their insanity plainly visible instead of cloaked behind a thin veneer of futurism over tech billionaire feudalism

It’s almost as if he has zero principles and just repeats what he’s told to, who’d have guessed?

Looks like meat’s back on the menu boys!
