Their priorities are strictly financial.

Doesn't align with the lining of their pockets.

Farmers didn't realize DEI was helping them. Shouldn't have voted for the leopards.

My local food bank had a hydroponics farm they used to provide fresh produce. I saw it being torn down the other day. I worked there in the summer of 2020 and it was amazing. So sad to see it go. :(

So it's not even about trying to sell the food instead of giving it away.

It's about preventing people from giving away food at scale at all, so they'd rather destroy the volunteers' farm than just leave it be.

This has gotten real ugly real fast.

Yeah. It's fucking disgusting what's going on. A lot of people relied on that produce. It was also EXCELLENT quality. It's a damn shame. That food bank does so much good for my community. I even relied on it for a few weeks after I lost my last job.
