@realRick_AUS Think they're all outta ideas as it stands ...if the last few days are any indication....kinda done frankly. Violence won't get them anywhere coz there's nowhere to go. Tough scene.
@JustKimfromoz Nothing they do will help now. Decisions have been made, folk don't dig what they're selling for a very distinct reason. Trying to sell them more will only make it worse. And that's exactly what they'll do because they don't understand what's happening and why. Which is......
The label reading evolution:
Week 1: "I'll cut sunflower oil from the cupboard. Done."
Week 2: "Why is rapeseed oil in the bread."
Week 3: "Why is sunflower oil in the hummus."
Week 4: "Why is canola oil in the pesto."
Week 6: "The shop is now taking ninety minutes."
Week 8: "There's seed oil in the tinned tomatoes."
Week 10: "The 'olive oil mayonnaise' is 96% rapeseed."
Week 14: "Asking waiters what they fry the chips in. Nobody knows."
Week 18: "Bringing a small bottle of tallow to dinner parties."
Week 22: "Rendering my own dripping on a Sunday."
Week 26: "Pricing up half a cow and a chest freezer."
Week 30: "Considering whether the garden could support a heifer."
Week 36: "Naming the heifer."
The descent into paranoia is just pattern recognition arriving in real time.
