  1. I just have to watch the evening news to see people who should be first on the menu.

    1. Imagine inviting your Parents to Dinner for some future date only to realize…
      Oh no, I’ve just eaten my parents.
      YUCK! GAG! GAG!
      It’s coming back up from your tummy, slow run along your stomach and up your…

    2. I would gladly roast over an open fire various BLM/Antifa troublemakers, Deep State operatives, or perhaps anyone involved with the daily content put forth by our despicable, mendacious mainstream media.

  2. Loosely based on a story called “Make Room, Make Room!”
    It was not about Soylent Green, it was, rather, about over-population.

    1. Harry Harrison, the author, was (is?) an anti-capitalist. His best selling series was about a Robin Hood type future thief / con man called “The Stainless Steel Rat” who only stole from “rich corporations, who can afford it”.

      Related, I passed by the Shaw building in Calgary yesterday. They seem to spend a lot of money on ads, and on their beautiful and open-air concept headquarters, and I’ll bet that if they were “robbed” they wouldn’t stint on the head office decorations, but would instead raise their fees by 1 percent (see what I did there?) to cover their “losses” (and then some!). That’s part of why anti-capitalists will never get it, because they don’t understand the incentives built into the system.

  3. Go ahead, turn me into food. Just don’t make me eat the maggots:

    “Why Bugs Must Be a Bigger Part of the Human Food Chain”:

    “The European Union’s landmark decision to approve insects for human consumption was a victory for maggots and people everywhere.

    It paves the way for an alternative protein source that should play a critical role in feeding a hotter, more populous world.”

    1. “…decision to approve insects for human consumption was a victory for maggots and people everywhere.”
      Maggots everywhere: “Hang on, we won what?”

    1. I’m glad Malone is out there and getting a bigger platform, and kudos to Rogan, obviously, for exploring his inner free thinker, and not staying on the leftist reservation.

      That said, will anyone really listen or hear him, that matters? Too many people I know of, maintain their low info existence with the ostrich routine.

      “I get my info from Bonnie Henry and do what she says.” Formerly smart people are all-in with BonBon, yet, in business, they don’t trust the government one bit. Boggles the mind.

      1. Yup.
        Nice that Joe did this, but Malone has his contradictory moments in that talk, if you listen closely.
        For example, at one point Malone says he has two hills he would die on…one being what is being done to children, and the other being free speech.
        Then mere minutes later, he says, in effect, fuck it, I am old and won’t be here when said children inherit this dystopia.
        So, a hill to die on is just rhetorical.
        Oh, and his take on variants is rife with contradictions.
        Fuck these guys and their virological shite.
        They are all cut from the same cloth.
        He, like all his ilk, murdered to dissect.
        Fuck em all.
        Joe is a good dude, though.
        Happy New Year.

  4. I can’t remember where I got it from now, but I just sent Lady Kate a Soylent Green ‘recipe’!!!

    It doesn’t use human, though; so I guess it’s technically vegan?! We were a family of carnivores, and my Father, a Master Butcher, would be horrified!!!

  5. With very few exceptions (none in Canada) every politician should be roasted on a spit and fed to health bureaucrats.
    We want to fatten them up before flying them to Ellesmere Island where they can parachute down, each with a pistol for self-defence and one bullet.

    1. Screw that Buddy.
      Waste of good guns.
      Far better we give them “carbon Neutral tools” and film their “cooperation” using drones.
      They conspired to strip us of our guns,no way I would support them having any.
      Better still,maybe we could arm the bears.As there is some evidence polar bears will not eat scum attached to the Sierra Club.
      And drop the political animals along with the swivel serpents.
      Parachutes?
      I don’t know.

  6. Soylent Green was one of the first pieces of Hollywood dreck to include the “greenhouse effect” as part of a nightmarish “limits to growth” future scenario.

    New York City’s population never approached 40 million, and the price of a jar of strawberry jam never approached $150. No thanks to our master class.

    1. That’s coming up on TCM later this month. I’ve seen it and I thought it was rather tasteless, no pun intended.

        1. I remember hearing about that movie. It can’t be all bad, as it has George Segal, Jacqueline Bisset, and Robert Morley.

          By the way, Eating Raoul‘s star and director Paul Bartel also directed some cornball movies, such as Death Race 2000 (Sylvester Stallone chews scenery in that one).

    1. “Finger Lickin’ Good”, eh. Maybe we update the title to “Refugees Welcome”.

  7. Yes! Soylent Green was about overpopulation with an idiotic “honey-wagon-full” of “greenhouse effect” thrown in to keep the plot moving, but I think I would like to subscribe to the “Thunderdome” philosophy that those left will destroy themselves like the Romans of old before they die of radiation-free water. I certainly could be wrong because I also vividly remember the saying, “Rugby players eat their dead!” It was October 1972, and the Uruguayan rugby team’s airplane crashed in the Andes. Of 44 (or 45, accounts differ) on the plane, only 15 survived by resorting to cannibalism. Of course, you will ask: we’re they Rugby Union or Rugby League? I don’t know. Do they taste differently? LOL!
