Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has banned the production and sale of Bill Gates' carcinogenic lab-grown meat in Florida.
Under the new law, anyone who sells or produces Gates' synthetic meat will be subject to arrest and prosecution.
After signing the bill, DeSantis said his goal was to protect his state's "vibrant agricultural industry" from the globalist elites who want to destroy traditional agriculture.
"What we're protecting here is the industry from man-made actions, from an ideological agenda that wants to blame agriculture as the problem, that uses things like cattle ranching as the destroyer of our climate," DeSantis said.
Infowars.com reports: “This will be people who will lecture the rest of us about things like global warming, they will say you can’t drive an internal combustion vehicle, they will say agriculture is bad, meanwhile, they’re flying to Davos in their private jets.”
Three other states are also mulling over similar legislation: Alabama, Arizona and Tennessee.
There are also already regulations at the federal and state level preventing manufacturers of lab-grown meat from calling their products meat and requiring them to label their products as lab-grown.
Lab-grown meat and other “alternative proteins” like “plant-based meat” and insects are pillars of the new climate-friendly diets of the future. A transition to a future without traditional animal products is advocated by governments and NGOs like the UN and World Economic Forum, as well as corporations, asset funds, the scientific and medical establishment, and eco-conscious celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert Downey Junior.
Florida resident Jeff Bezos, for example, “pumped $60 million into making lab-grown meat taste better,” according to a new report from Fortune.
Despite its status as an official “food of the future,” lab-grown meat has been dogged by persistent scandals and suggestions that the product will fail to live up to its hype, may not be scalable and could even be significantly worse for the environment than the animal products it is intended to replace.
In February, a devastating New York Times guest essay called lab-grown meat “The Revolution That Died on Its Way to Dinner.”
“Interviews with almost 60 industry investors and insiders, including many who have been employed by or been part of the leadership teams of these companies, reveal a litany of squandered resources, broken promises and unproven science,” author Joe Fassler wrote.
“Founders, hemmed in by their own unrealistic proclamations, cut corners, such as using ingredients derived from slaughtered animals. Investors, swept up in the excitement of the moment, wrote check after check despite significant technological obstacles. Costs refused to enter the realm of plausible as launch targets came and went. All the while, nobody could achieve anything close to meaningful scale. And yet companies rushed to build expensive facilities and pushed scientists to exceed what was possible, creating the illusion of a thrilling race to market.”
Murky connections between one of the most prominent manufacturers of lab-grown meat and a Chinese company with ties to China’s biowarfare program were also revealed last year in a major scoop by Raw Egg Nationalist for The National Pulse. FDA filings by GOOD Meat for its “cultured chicken” product showed that it was using a Chinese company JOINN Biologics to produce the fake meat. JOINN Biologics and its parent company JOINN Laboratories are major players in the breeding of lab animals, including primates, for experimentation and share key personnel with the Chinese military’s biowarfare program.
JOINN Biologics made national headlines in 2022 when it bought 1,400 acres of land in Morriston, Florida at a cost of $5.5 million, to build a new primate quarantine and breeding facility to expand the parent company’s existing lab-animal-breeding operations. The purchase was one of the largest single purchases of American real estate by a Chinese company to date. The project was scrapped after it failed to receive official approval from the state of Florida.
