      There are several other states considering bans too. Here we finally have a viable way of ending the suffering we inflict on nonhuman animals and it’s facing so much resistance. Pisses me off. Things like this shouldn’t even be part of a discussion if it’s determined to be safe through rigorous testing, they should just be straight up promoted and implemented immediately.

      So many things society could massively benefit from are constantly held back by a minority group of hardheaded, self-centered, unscientific, anti-intellectual morons.

        Well, if these same interests could have headed off all the various milk substitutes, not to mention mushroom/soy/pea/etc substitutes for meat, they likely would have, as well. Some are trying rear-guard actions against milk substitutes even now.

        I bet even the dumb phrases like “soy boy” were workshopped by moneyed interests. Trying to portray plant-based as “unmanly” has the earmarks of moneyed interests all over it.

        There will be a time in the future where we must rely on this type of technology to feed humanity. If we can’t stop the destruction of the Earth our future survival will be indoor food growth. Thankfully it’s unlikely we would see this in our lifetimes.
