You really can’t help yourself with the theatrics, can you? He didn’t “come out against meat,” and he’s not “taking away brisket from Texans.” He said people should consider reducing meat consumption and that his campaign is choosing to buy vegan food. That’s a personal and campaign choice, not a law, not a ban, not a mandate. Turning “we’re buying vegan pizza” into “Democrats are coming for your BBQ” is exactly the kind of over-the-top exaggeration people are tired of. And the rest of your post is the same playbook, take something nuanced, strip the context, and turn it into outrage bait. No actual policy, no actual proposal, just vibes and volume. If you want to have a real conversation, stick to what was actually said instead of inventing a culture war headline out of it.
