If you want to provoke a Leftist – or a Leftist outlet – to absurd heights of lunatic apoplexy, just suggest that there’s some normal, rational thing going on that has the approval of conservatives:
If you consume protein, you’re now a right wing MAGA extremist bro, according to Vanity Fair.
Yes, really.
A recent article the moribund magazine published asks “Why Are Americans So Obsessed With Protein?” and provides the answer “blame MAGA,” further referring to “podcast bros” and RFK Jr.’s health push as reasons why protein is popular.

What on Earth could possibly come next? That Family dinners are somehow a reactionary initiative of the MAGA movement? No, I think they’ve already touched that base. Maybe that women shouldn’t buy any more shoes because that would collaborate with Trump’s tariff program? Nahh, they’d never be able to put that over. We’ll have to wait and see.

The lens that makes the GloboLeft policy initiatives make sense as a whole seems to be “what will make it easier to control the little people?”
Protein? The best, densest sources are animal-based. Why do they not want us to keep livestock? Because livestock is a food source that can be easily picked up from one location and moved to another, especially quadrupeds, and can live on grass. If SHTF and refugees swarm to the countryside, we can herd our cattle and fowl away from them to a safer area where we have allies (who will likely be happy we’re bringing food with us). Crops in the ground? Not so much…
The same could be said about trying to restrict private firearm and vehicle ownership, preventing people from capturing runoff water on one’s land for irrigation purposes, or engaging in artisanal brewing and distilling, etc, etc, ad nauseum.
If it increases our independence from the systems they control, and allows us to say, “Nah, we don’t need you GloboLeft clowns, so why don’t you all go f*** yourselves?” They hate it and we’re bad people for wanting it.
