David vs. Goliath
An Amish farmer whose cattle was seized by authoritarian government requires deep consideration about future affordability, safety and availability of food.

Townhall published a documentary on X, formerly known as Twitter, titled "David vs. Goliath: Big Government's War on an Amish Farmer." The film shows big government raiding the business of a small-town Amish farmer tucked away in Virginia's heartland.
Samuel B. Fisher and his family farm, Golden Valley Farms, was raided unannounced in June by the Virginia Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (VDACS) and Cumberland County sheriff's deputy, for selling meat from his 100-acre farm because the meat was not processed in a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) facility.
State government placed the meat under "administrative detention." In other words, his own meat was now under state control and no longer for sale, nor could he feed his family.
"We had all this meat. We worked hard to get it in the freezer, process it, package it, stack it in there to sell and bring income. And, here comes the state, puts everything in their truck, and takes it to the dump, pays us nothing for it, so that definitely affects our income. We do have a big struggle to pay our bills right at the moment," Fisher said.
The Amish farmer explained his 500 customers believed in his products because it was "fresh," unlike "when you go to the store, you don't know what's in your food." Fisher said big corporations that control the food supply sometimes process "partly rotten" meat dipped in chloride, as a chemical preservative, to manufacture a red, pinkish look "just like it be fresh." He said big corporations can't track all the animals that are butchered. Continue reading at

Inversionism
These farmers were doing what's called cow share, where people in the community all pay up front and invest in a cow for milk or meat. This has been done by numerous farms across the country to avoid using meat processors/big business and get clean, properly raised, healthy food, without extra fees and government b.s. attached.
Thousands and thousands of dollars of nutrient dense quality animal foods, all thrown away. The FDA and USDA both need to be completely dissolved. They don't protect public health. They destroy it. https://twitter.com/JDRucker/status/1699336152032141376
Telegraphing tyranny and death
Killing hundreds of millions of chickens and turkeys globally is not another pandemic conspiracy, it’s part of a plot to vastly curtail the food supply under the guise of animal transmission of ‘avian bird flu.’ By targeting animals as a risk to spread flu to humans, the slaughter of domesticated and wild animals will gain more support from people who ignore and deny the truth.
Elimination of meat as a food source in favor of lab grown GMO poison is being pursued actively, as the regulation, control, and eradication of private farms and ranches is now underway.

Telegraphing climate hoax
How much farmland production has been lost to UN sustainable development, urbanization, fertilizers, and massive forest fires 2021-2023?

Soil has a food cycle. Lichen moss, fungi, bacteria and some micro organisms coexist in the soil and depend on each other. Snakes, frogs, earth worms, snails, and some birds depend on each other. They are all members of this soil food cycle. The cycle is absent because of extensive use of synthetic fertilizers.
Over the past century, artificial fertilizer was used to boost crop outputs enormously. In effect, worldwide, the food we eat is 75% oil-based highlighting the need to protect agricultural lands for an alleged time when oil may not be as plentiful.
Synthetic Fertilizers are man made inorganic compounds - usually derived from by-products of the petroleum industry. Examples are Ammonium Nitrate, Ammonium Phosphate, Superphosphate, and Potassium Sulfate.
When soil loses its fertility and becomes barren, the process is known as desertification. Desertification speeds climate change and climate change speeds desertification. Urbanization is the ultimate form of desertification. Is this how 15 minute electronic prison cities are being justified?
End time prophecy
What if bible prophecy of famine during end times was written by ancestors of today’s horsemen of the apocalypse who long ago planned world domination through banks, big tech, food production systems, government, media, medicine, military, religion and science?
How much easier is it to collaborate and take meaningful corrective action when people are nourished, fed and share common survival goals?
