TOSS ANOTHER CARNIVORE ON THE BARBIE, WE'RE OUT OF BEYOND BEEF! |
In an article entitled
The Planet On The Plate :
Why Epicurious Left Beef Behind
the Editors reach new heights of hypocrisy in attempting to cloak Hamburger Hate Speech in this dark green mantle:
Some people might assume that this decision signals...we hate hamburgers (we don’t!) ... We think of this decision as not anti-beef but rather pro-planet… every time you abstain from beef... you send a signal. If we don’t, we’ll end up with no planet at all."
This cannot stand--- half the hot air in Salon and Slate is eructed by vegans who believe what they read in Vogue and Vanity Fair, journals whose last civilized editors were cowed and devoured by Woke Twitter mobs like those at The Paris Review and The Nation before them.
Global greenhouse emissions used to come mainly from Murdoch newspaper readers, but it is an obscene fact of Anthropocene life that hive magazine subscribers are playing catch-up: the methane from composting a single issue of Vogue inflicts 22 times more climate forcing than using Section A of Sunday New York Times to kindle a barbecue.
