Ahhh yes, we should be barred from eating any and all meat, soy and bugs only, but the billionaires should still be able to enjoy steaks and burgers right?

I really, really don't understand why you've latched on to bugs. Nor am I barring people from eating meat. I don't have that power. What I do have the power to do is to buy less meat myself, especially beef, to reduce the quantity of it that we produce by that much more, and I'm encouraging you to do the same, because I genuinely believe your quality of life is determined by more than how much beef you eat, and I hope you do too. Also there are a lot of good veggie dishes to eat that don't involve soy at all.

It's not about making them money, lol lmao, it's about further enrichment of themselves at your detriment.

Further enrichment of themselves would mean making more money. Billionaires really, really don't care about what you eat unless they sold it to you themselves. Gates is not in the food business, and if he cares about what you ate, it's also because of the climate. He will, however, care if you're not using Windows or Bing or Xbox.

I work with computers all day, and even I don't see the world as binary as you do. I eat beef too. Sometimes. I try to do so far less these days. It's not a detriment to my quality of life in the least bit. If I'm at a barbecue and all they have is beef burgers, I'm not going to refuse them, but if I'm at a Burger King, I'll get the chicken sandwich or the Impossible burger. Every serving of beef I don't eat is better than choosing to do so instead. I don't excuse billionaires for flying in private jets, nor do I have the ability to stop them in any way; they're certainly not in this thread for us to talk to. So in lieu of that, I know that I can at least reduce some amount of climate impact by my choices in the market. That doesn't mean it's reduced to zero. It means it's reduced.
