Activist: "Farmers are millionaires sitting on land worth a fortune. They can afford the inheritance tax."
Farmer: "How much did I earn last year?"
Activist: "I don't know. A lot, surely."
Farmer: "Twenty-two thousand. Before the tractor broke."
Activist: "But the land's worth millions."
Farmer: "On paper. I can't eat the field or spend it. The only way to turn it into money is to sell it, and then I'm not a farmer, I'm a bloke who used to have a farm."
Activist: "So sell a corner of it."
Farmer: "A corner doesn't work as a farm. You can't run a suckler herd on the bit that's left after the taxman's had his slice. You sell one field, then the next bill comes, then another field. It ends one way."
Activist: "The land only costs that much because you won't sell it."
Farmer: "It costs that much because a hedge fund three counties over wants it for carbon credits and a footballer wants it for the view. Neither of them has ever calved a cow at three in the morning. They set the price. I get the bill."
Activist: "It's still an asset."
Farmer: "It's a workplace that happens to be expensive. You've decided the value of the shop is the same as the wage of the shopkeeper. Come back in February and watch me not be a millionaire in the rain."

Jeremy Clarkson’s Farm show on Amazon is the most radicalizing piece of mainstream media I’ve ever seen
Just one example (bear with me):
Badgers became a protected species in Britain 40+ years ago.
The population has exploded and now frequently transmits tuberculosis to cows
But farmers can’t cull the badger population to protect their cattle because the government still considers them to be endangered
Instead of addressing the root cause, the UK has the most batshit testing regime for cattle
There’s no TB vaccine. So the cattle have to get tested. The vets administering the test have to measure welts on the cows neck. Whether a cow lives or dies comes down to a vet trying to discern 1mm on a caliper (reactive vs non reactive).
If a cow tests positive, the farm (already running on super thin margins) is quarantined and starts hemorrhaging money.
Jeremy Clarkson’s cow (pregnant with twins) has an inconclusive test so it’s separated from the herd. It receives a second inconclusive test so they have to kill it (before it can give birth to the twins).
Now here’s the kicker: the autopsy reveals no sign of TB. It was a healthy cow needlessly killed
So - silver lining the farm should be removed from quarantine, right? WRONG - it’s still under quarantine and has to keep testing and can’t sell its beef
Kafkaesque doesn’t even begin to describe how f’d up it is for British farmers
🚨🚨LA ÉLITE GL0BALISTA NO TE DIRÁ ESTO, pero la ciencia es clara.
Un estudio de la Universidad de Nebraska DEMOSTRÓ que las vacas influyen positivamente en el ambiente, debido a que las pasturas utilizadas para alimentarlas absorben más carbono del que emite el ganado, DESMINTIENDO la narrativa contra la industria ganadera.
Las vacas producen más oxígeno que el metano y carbono que emiten.
La MACABRA IDEA de eliminar las vacas es una de las mentiras del Psicópata Gates. Ese hombre necesita ser arrestado. ES UN PELIGRO GRAVE PARA LA HUMANIDAD.🔥
During the Rape Gang Inquiry stream Asmongold did, people were giving him money, etc., and multiple times, (including at the beginning) he told people not to.
He’d thank them, but stress he did not want their money. He said if you wanted to give money, do so to organizations that actually help the victims.
This is one man, doing something no one else would, not seeking attention or accolades, but doing so because it was the right thing to do.
We could be looking at a Team Rocket set kicking off 2027... 🚀
Or maybe it's an entirely new Pokémon TCG product that nobody is expecting.
What's even stranger is that we still haven't seen a High Class Pack revealed yet 🤔
If you had to choose, what would you rather see?
Lmao. And there’s the plan. Right there. Laid bare in your face. Create the problem (stranger danger), sell the solution (more authoritative surveillance state), repeat forever. Everyone owes conspiracy theorists an apology who have been screaming about this for years.
