"Inside big beef’s climate messaging machine: confuse, defend and downplay" - Joe Fassler

You can't make this stuff up. There is a "Masters of Beef Advocacy" (yes, abbreviated MBA!, should stand for Manipulators of Bullshit Advocacy), that the animal meat industry is propping up to manipulate the public.

An absolute must read. The general non vegan population (including YOU!) is being lied to. The #tobaccoIndustry did it, the #fossilFuelIndustry did it (and are still doing it), and now the #AnimalIndustry is doing it.

Now you know. People with financial interests (and zero concern or consideration for the 'animal') are using every trick in the book to keep selling you their product.

Don't buy their BS and leave the cow alone. 💩

Ok folks, this may be one of my last big threads on @FDATobacco@twitter.com regulation because I'm contemplating quitting Twitter entirely. While I'm still here, we need to talk about the FDA, RJ Reynolds, and California's SB793. On Tuesday, the state of California voted not to undo the
