shareholder profits, that's the angle.

They should just be honest. At this point most Americans would probably just nod sagely and be like oh yes the shareholders of course

What a dumb fuck Australians sell our beef all around the world. We don't want yours for very real biosecurity reasons.
•
u/PrivilegeCheckmate 20h ago
Well, at least you won't expect us to act rationally, what with the hormonal state of our beef.
•
u/Aviationlord 17h ago edited 16h ago
You know what’s scary, I’ve seen Australians in comments sections unironically arguing we should be importing US beef and totally ignoring the real bio security risk that poses to our beef farmers. You cannot fix the stupidity that infects the minds of trump supporters in the U.S. or internationally

Yeah, we have plenty of idiots here too. We have a federal election coming up and one of the chief idiots has invented his own party called Trumpet of Patriots. It’s as bad as it sounds. He’s about as honest a businessman as Trump too. Stupidly (and thankfully) a lot of the fools that would vote for such a wanker are probably sovereign citizens (who love a good conspiracy as much as they distrust the guvmint) who won’t vote out of protest or their rights or Covid vaccines causing mind control or some other bizarre reason.

The ones arguing to support US beef are the weirdo MAGAtards (yes, we have them here in AUS as well) who worship Trump.
•
u/enigmasaurus- 19h ago edited 19h ago
Yes, hard fucking pass on BSE beef thanks (or a range of other diseases). Australia doesn't need to import beef. The vast majority - 75% - of our farming land already produces beef.

Yep I’d rather support the superior products our farmers here in Australia produce! No fucking way would I be caught dead buying American meats!

I saw someone on here arguing that "your salad is washed too"!, completely ignoring the fact that it is the dogshit condition the chicken is in to necessitate that which is the problem not just the actual washing.

Australia uses less than 29% of its beef production for domestic use, the rest is exported. Why the hell would we import beef when we produce 3.5x more than we consume?
•
u/LiquorishSunfish 17h ago
To be fair, we would probably consume more if we could pay export prices for it.
•
•
u/TheDrySkinQueen 3h ago
And also, why would we import a shit product when we have a great domestic product available? Like fuck me man, I can go get great quality Aussie beef for decent prices at my local butcher. Why the fuck would I instead go buy shit quality American stuff?!?

Some of those people were rabid for him. Decorated their cars and homes. Got tattoos. Called him God's Chosen to lead us, and mocked their friends and family for not following him. They get ZERO sympathy from me.

u/Neon_culture79 23h ago
I think part of what he was mentioning was about round up. How it can cause colony collapse syndrome in Bee colonies.
Seeing the seeds are different, could be a reference to genetically engineered crops from Monsanto that has been trademarked.
But overall, he just wants to play the victim, which is the typical Trump move now. All these big Alpha males sure do you get victimized a lot
•
u/wasteabuse 18h ago
It's not just round up ready crops, US companies coat their seeds in neonicotinoid pesticides which severely messes up water quality and insect populations and diversity.

u/cheerful_cynic 16h ago
He was making too much sense, it was very coherent to me when he went to mAkE fUn of the OtHeR SiDe, suddenly he was like "oops oh no I might sum up their point a little too well, gotta bail" and sputtered out that it was nOnSeNsE

u/RemoWilliams615 23h ago
I'm inclined to agree with the end of his statement, in general. I have absolutely no idea how to match up all the other words he said previously so it seems to wrap that up nicely as well

Europe buys beef from the USA but only if it meets their standards. Those standards are often sanitary measures that the US companies can't meet.

The U.S. consumes more beef than it produces.
Lutnick and Navarro are morons, complicit compromised sheep morons

Here's a thing; Americans are always baffled by the lack of seasoning in food in other parts of the world. UK is an obvious one but I've even seen Americans dumbfounded that the asadores of Argentina and Uruguay just whack a bit of salt on and cook away.
Thing is, meat in other parts of the world just tastes good. I don't need to pour 5kg of msg, garlic granules and paprika on my meat when I do a bbq here because the chicken hasn't been washed with chlorine and the picanha pumped full of growth hormones. We cook it so we can taste the meat.
Don't get me wrong: like all Brits I love a curry as much as the next man but I like the option to just have a nice, well cooked bit of meat that doesn't require ounces of spice just to hide the shitty chemical taste. That's why we don't want American meat.

Traditional American cuisine is slathered in sauces and spices long before modern factory farming and wash techniques were invented.
The majority of American food has its roots in Southern BBQ (mmmmm BBQ), extreme travel distances (long shelf-life, calorie dense food) and blue collar cities ('Fast' and fast food, diners, etc)
All of these types of food use/need heavy spices and sauces. BBQ because thats just what it is, travel food because thats how you get it to last a long time, and diner food (hotdogs, burgers, pizza type deals) because thats how you make yours taste better than the guy next door.
All of this was long before whatever the hell Tyson foods does to chicken in an unholy manor.

The same group who tout essential oils as a cure-all and have gone to virtual war on their belief that "the jab" is poison, want us to eat beef that's 'roided up. Nice.

I will say beef outside the US doesn’t taste as good, hormones do add a nice meaty taste

I see White folks in the comments defending the lack of seasoning in their cuisine despite conquering the world for spices and shit. No shade to British people but your food is nasty.

It's not just hormones it's also the insain amounts of antibiotics which is contributing to resistant strains. It's about animal welfare which is god awful on those American mega ranches. And precautionary regulation is not a bad thing.
It's like chlorination chicken for example, it's not the chlorination that's the problem it's that you have to cholorinate because of the terrible dirty conditions the animals are kept in and that you don't vaccinated for salmonella, we have basically zero domestic cases of salmonella in the UK & don't have to refrigerate our eggs, and its ok to use raw eggs in recipes without worrying.
We ban US imports of US beef and chicken in the UK, yet we import plenty from Brazil, Australia, Ireland. Because they meet our standards.
If the US wants to sell it's goods internationally all they have to do is meet the standards required.
Not bully other countries into accepting their lower standards. US producers want to do this because they think they can undercut on the global market by supply substandard goods with a lowered cost of production.
Unsurprisingly consumers and vus voters in effected countries find it absolutely unpalatable to the point it's an absolute red line for any government to cross as they would be booted from power at the first possible chance.
