  1. So that’s Bloomberg Opinion.
    What We The People Opinion should be: Pitchfork and torch time.
    What We The People Opinion is: I don’t like lentils.

    Stick a fork in us, we’re done.

    1. A nation of idiots and morons. nothing more need be said or discussed. No one has the balls to fight, they are pussies and wimps.

      1. Yep. The only people with any balls in this country seem to be the natives, whether or not one supports their causes. They’ve actually been known to shoot back from time to time.

            I’m so old I remember the Conservative Party…

            “”Premier Doug Ford is looking to permanently enact the additional tools
            for police officers
            , including the ability to impose roadside suspension
            of drivers’ licences and vehicle permits, seize licence plates
            when a vehicle
            is used in an illegal blockade and remove and store objects making up
            an illegal blockade.”

            Ontarians choose to live on their knees. All those urban third world
            immigrants won’t know any different.

            Yep, on pretty much everything spewed by the County’s Propagandists & local Karen’s of whom we have Far far too many thereof…evidenced by the masses of brand dead drones still wearing their face diapers

          3. They won’t take me alive for the crime of living free, and I’ll take at least one with me.

      2. I have done so far this year working online and am a full time student. I am using an online business opportunity that I have heard of qwe22 that has made so much money. It’s really easy to use KJHU and I’m so glad I discovered it. Here is what I do.

      1. What? You don’t want to eat barbecued lentils? (Me, neither.)

  2. Scary how the name “Bloomberg” means “capitalism” to an entire generation of low-information people.

    Almost indistinguishable from Jacobin these days.

    Anyway, this has been my “cut and paste” for months now, “progressive talking points about inflation”, this is #4:

    1) there is no threat of inflation due to the government borrowing then “spending” a trillion dollars
    2) there is no inflation, like we said
    3) there is some inflation, but not everywhere, and its not bad, so point 1 stands, please ignore point 2
    4) there is some inflation in some minor areas such as fuel, housing and food, but its manageable
    5) its only for a short time, just like two weeks to flatten the COVID curve, remember then?
    6) inflation is actually good, Stephen Colbert says so, and who would know better?
    7) the government has a plan for inflation if it ever really becomes a for real problem for real people
    8) you’ll love wage and price controls…
    9) its corporate greed that somehow didn’t exist two years ago, just started overnight
    10) did we mention the inflation that isn’t happening, but would be great if it was, is Putin’s fault?

    1. Orwell’s double-think of holding 2 contradictory ideas was so 20th century.
      Now we can hold 10 contradictory ideas.
      Can we do 20? I say yes!

      1. Orwell was riffing on Lewis Carroll:

        “Alice laughed. “There’s no use trying,” she said: “one can’t believe impossible things.”
        “I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was your age, I always did it for half-an-hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.””

        From “Through the Looking Glass” (Chapter 5)

        1. Indeed, and then there’s this Humpty:
          “When I use a word,’ Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, ‘it means just what I choose it to mean — neither more nor less.’ ‘The question is,’ said Alice, ‘whether you can make words mean so many different things.’ ‘The question is,’ said Humpty Dumpty, ‘which is to be master — that’s all.” ―

  3. Sure!
    Just hook that Super B trailer set up to the fifth wheel on the back of the bus and head out of town.

  4. So, how do I get to earn more than $300,000–legally–so that inflation won’t affect me?

      1. Geezus Stateless, you have a sicko sense of humour!

        B A D stripping would be worst than cutting yer ballz off!

    1. I learned this morning that if you have a digital subscription to a Canadian approved outlet you can get a tax credit.

  5. My wife and I quite like a pureed coconut lentil soup we recently found in a local shop. I try not to apply idelogical notions to soups or nuts, um, artists/musicians. Mind you, we may not be able to afford it if the HPP (higher purpose persons) get their way.

  6. Last week I bought some NoName porridge oats, 1 kg for $2 at No Frills. The last time I had bought them it was $2.38 if I remember correctly. That’s a cheap breakfast folks.

  7. Bloomberg published that with a straight face? Sure it’s not The Babylon Bee?

  8. “Take the bus”??? The last time I checked, that would mean a 90-minute commute with two or three transfers, instead of 15 minutes door-to-door. That’s 2.5 hours extra away from my private life EVERY FREAKIN’ DAY.

    And don’t get me started on the arrogance of “Nobody said this was going to be fun.”

  9. Lentils make good dhal and a good lentil soup.

    That’s it, really.

    The best way to handle inflation is make the politicians and banks accountable.

  10. If you earn less than than the average Canadian, $54,900, than I guess it’s bugs and second hand shoes.

    1. We’re supposed to eat bugs and second-hand shoes? (“Mommy, my supper’s tough as shoe leather!” “What do you think you’re eating?”)

        1. HiHo, “There’s a fly in my soup.” that would be your daily ration of meat….right?

    1. Yes I am having my own “Let them eat cake” moment over the “let you dog die” advice.

  11. What about those of us already surviving on rice and beans?

    I was seriously considering dog food but any decent tasting dog food is insanely expensive

    1. My canine stepbrother is supposed to eat the dry stuff when he’s at my house. He doesn’t unless he’s really hungry. He’d rather have my “people food”, just like he did when my father was alive.

      However, when he does eat it, he does so with enthusiasm.

      And, no, dry dog food isn’t all that cheap, either.

        1. The first dachshund in the family often reminded us of that. I was surprised that the wallpaint remained intact.

  12. I think that post is going to be less successful in getting people to eat lentils than the rich.

  13. Get with the program. Despite what they want you to believe it’s us vs. elites and that’s all it’s ever been for the last five years. Don’t get drawn in.
    They are contemptuous C***S***ers.
    Eat Lenitls you peasants…while they dine on steak and lobster.
    EFFERS.

    1. Because us peons will be hoarding what is rightfully theirs, in their minds, everything.
      When Jesus prayed “Give us this day our ‘daily’ bread….” They thought Jesus was speaking to them…..

  14. If you’re taking the bus, or riding in an elevator, maybe you should not bother eating lentils. It would help with plausible deniability. Just sayin’.
