NY Times Argues Bad Economy, Hyper-Inflation Is Good In Order To Usher In Green Agenda

NY Times argues bad economy, hyper-inflation for Americans is a GOOD thing because it will usher in the “green agenda” faster

If you still believed that the elitist corporation media is on the side of ordinary Americans, you should disabuse yourself of that mythical notion.

The New York Times published a column this week lauding escalating inflation that working-class men and women are currently struggling with, as well as record-high gasoline and diesel fuel costs because it will hasten the transition to the far-left’s “green agenda,” which is nothing more than a massive population control scheme.

The column by lifestyle journalist Annaliese Griffin reads like it was written by the most out-of-touch, tone-deaf person on the planet — or a stone propagandist for the left’s climate alarmism agenda. You decide; here’s an excerpt:

If the current rate of food inflation holds and Americans don’t change their meat consumption habits, they will spend roughly $20 billion more on meat, poultry, fish and eggs over the next year than they did in 2020. … Inflation has the potential to drive welcome change for the planet if Americans think differently about the way they eat. 

While hunger and food insecurity are a very real problem in the United States and globally, middle- and upper-class Americans still have more choices at the grocery store than perhaps any food shoppers in history. Climate change has motivated some to eat less resource-intensive meat and more vegetables, grains and legumes, but this movement has not reached the scale necessary to bring needed change — yet.

Never before in the history of our country have citizens in positions of influence and power either advocated for or cheered on political movements and policies that call for massive reductions in Americans’ individual liberties. The same cheerleaders who crow about “my body, my choice” when it comes to killing unborn babies literally pivot on a dime — and without any awareness of their own hypocrisy — to stump for policies that take away our choices about what we want to eat, want to buy, want to drive, and want to live. Joe Biden ran on a platform of reducing the use of fossil fuels, but he never once came out and said, ‘Elect me: I want to entirely change your modes of transportation and replace them with $60,000-a-piece vehicles that will crater our already fragile power grid.”
