I'm in Canada and my income has not increased, but my food bill has. I'm eating worse than ever now. It's not going to get better.

You should tune in to Ice Age Farmer and /s/Agenda21_Agenda2030. Join in the conversation if you can refute what he's saying. This is the more true fear porn that is not being broadcast but should. I'd rather not fear this but it seems inevitable as they implement their Great Reset to control humanity down to the micro detail. The food crisis will be global. Canada is now building concentration camps, not just for foreign visitors and/or quarantine, and anyone who brings it up in Parliament gets censored. I tried to tell my normie sheeple Dad about the looming food crisis and he didn't want to talk about it. At least you're paying attention. As I told him, I hope I'm wrong and I never want to say I told you so on food shortages.

Labour shortages are part of the problem. If people can't pick them then they can't be delivered - intentionally. With this so-called virus. You're digging yourself a cop out. If farms are sabotaged that also counts. They're not sabotaging and limiting themselves. The food networks are being strangled one way or another.

The grand solar minimum is natural and is limiting growing seasons in colder climates. The weather can be manipulated but much of it is still natural. There is no shortage of inherent corruption - it just takes recognition.

I'm in Canada and my income has not increased, but my food bill has.

That only suggests food shortages if you assume the efficient market hypothesis, but monopolies, monopsonies and the fact you don't haggle on food prices means it could be price fixing or something algorithmic. (Obviously you have other reasons to suspect this, too, but just wanted to point out the obvious for everyone else.)

Sad to see that Canada's going that way, too.

You're digging yourself a cop out. If farms are sabotaged that also counts.

I know. I'm only exempting shortages due to changes in demand, not changes in supply; the latter is basically the definition of food shortage.

P.S.: Please don't buy into the false dichotomy “safety or liberty”. Assume, for a moment, that COVID-19 is a problem. You can have both.

My statement about Canadian food doesn't mean there are or aren't food shortages. It only means the corporations are demanding more, regardless of the reasons. That said, I expect food to become a problem. If I could recall where I'd link you, but on several occasions since this started I've heard that the 2 best ways to control a population is via disease and food scarcity.

/s/Canada has worse things happening down the road.

You can't have it all. Come to me for computer animation (or any other product or service) and you can only ever have up to 2/3 of these: quality, sooner, cheaper. 33% is always compromised.

I'll always take liberty over safety and choose for myself rather than have my fate decided from on high.

Fuck assuming COVID-19 is a problem. It's clearly not. Perhaps COVID-21 will be a superior bioweapon, and we should be wary. But pretending it's a threat when it's an OBVIOUS excuse for tyranny is a stupid waste of time.

the 2 best ways to control a population is via disease and food scarcity.

Those are ways to control a rebellious subset of the population; that wouldn't work on a national scale, and it certainly wouldn't work given media coverage the interconnectedness brought by the internet … Okay, that's scary, but I still think … okay, I'm not confident that everyone with the power to do that kind of thing wouldn't, but surely there must be other people with that kind of power who would stop it, instead of just being a bystand…   Well, I'd still bet against it.

But back to my point: a combination of fear and the true belief that the leaders can protect from that fear would be a better way to control the population, and there are easier, more effective ways to do that than food shortages and disease. The position of elected government official couldn't really profit from control gathered via food shortages and disease.

Come to me for computer animation (or any other product or service) and you can only ever have up to 2/3 of these: quality, sooner, cheaper.

Wait, you were able to pull off good, fast and cheap at the same time? :-| My understanding of economics says you must care about your work.

But pretending it's a threat when it's an OBVIOUS excuse for tyranny is a stupid waste of time.

It can be both.
