    So “rich people want poor people to eat bugs” is a climate denier conspiracy theorist meme. The OP comic doesn’t involve this so it might have been posted in good faith, so I’m gonna be nice and shit, but this isn’t great. The gimmick is basically “global elites who eat steak want you to eat bugs, climate science is a pretext to rob you.” It’s parallel to anti-fuckcars people who hear “dense sensibly designed mixed use, bikes walking etc” and hear “global elites who use private jets want to take your personal car and trap you in your tiny neighborhood for global elite reasons, climate science is a pretext to rob you.”

    tldr plz no post badguy material
