In my lefty ancom bubble I’m sometimes seeing rhetoric opposing meal replacements, but I’m not on board with that. Some brands have a low climate impact per calorie. It’s so much better and more empathetic than the usual “carnivore” trends pushed by the fash.
While I don’t necessarily recommend them (as always, be careful with food stuff) the witch hunt against them is growing to be a peeve of mine.
Normally the wedge issue right wing are the ones hating on vegans, pushing keto, or fearmongering against entomophagia. We can do better.
Usually they are the ones punching down and not recognizing that other people might have different needs, capabilities, spoon deficiencies, tastes, or preferences.
