Beyond meat has come public today and the stock went nuts to the upside. Look at the lovely lovely chart.
Truth be told, Le Fly tried being vegan for a year and initially felt good about the decision. I enjoyed the discipline of adhering to a certain set of rules — because I’m a man and men like order. At first, I was optimistic about this sojourn, saving innocent baby animals and being environmentally friendly. Plus, I had a deep seething disdain for the meth-heads who worked at the slaughterhouses.
About 9 months in, I started to truly hate it and felt I was being unjustifiably punitive with myself. After all, I’m not immortal and do not intend to live past 85, so what the fuck was I doing — punishing myself for the sake of what exactly? Since the beginning of man, men have been eating animals. They are lesser creatures and deserve to be subordinated, not because men are evil or because of cruelty — but because that’s what living is — the subjugation of one to uplift another. We can bear witness to this on a micro-scale all the way up.
Men are supposed to eat cows and sheep and chickens, not only because they taste good — but because the help build muscles and make us stronger — which helps us kill people who deserve to be killed. I do not expect any women reading this post to understand the mind of men. Your nature is to nurture and to be kind, and supportive, and beautiful. Men, on the other hand, despise other men who try to be beautiful and we frown upon other men who lack substance and aren’t formidable.
I can argue that BYND is a short from the very start and will barrel lower into irrelevancy. But it appears we have a wave passing over us now where men are women and women are men and upside down is sideways and gay bathrooms only serve vegetables — and anything industrious is poison. A great giant fucking psychosis is sweeping around the globe and this might help buoy BYND, at least for a while.
But eventually, like all things, men will turn vegans into dust and with it — BYND.
Good day.
