    2019 was a devastating year for barn fires in the US.

    In fact, 2013-2017, 326 barn fires killed at least 2,763,924 farm animals in the United States, and 95% of them were chickens.

    Yup. Dude literally ran a segment completely devoid of any context that said Biden is accurately quoted saying he planned a food shortage with the G7 and that hen farms have been uniquely burning and that must be what is causing the egg price increase.

    And I'm sure there are thousands of people who have posted this video with "Tucker nails it again" as their comment.

    Nothing that I've read up here. Can't speak for Mexico. Based on the reporting here, seems to be avian flu related stateside but the feed/fire issues won't help.

Facebook thinks we are supposed to believe he is senile and we can't trust his own words, verified on tape, a tape no one can dispute.

    "We can't know what Joe Biden was thinking."

    Question: ...And secondly, can you say whether this — the conversation today turned to the subject of food shortages, and what the U.S. will do to address wheat shortages, in particular, as a result of this war? Thank you.

    Biden: ...With regard to food shortage, yes, we did talk about food shortages. And — and it’s going to be real. The price of these sanctions is not just imposed upon Russia, it’s imposed upon an awful lot of countries as well, including European countries and our country as well. And — because both Russia and Ukraine have been the breadbasket of Europe in terms of wheat, for example — just to give you one example.

    But we had a long discussion in the G7 with the — with both the United States, which has a significant — the third-largest producer of wheat in the world — as well as Canada, which is also a major, major producer. And we both talked about how we could increase and disseminate more rapidly food. Food shortages.

    And in addition to that, we talked about urging all the European countries and everyone else to end trade restrictions on — on sending — limitations on sending food abroad. And so, we are in the process of working out, with our European friends, what it would be — what it would take to help alleviate the concerns relative to food shortages.

    We also talked about a significant, major U.S. investment, among others, in terms of providing for the need for humanitarian assistance, including food, as we move forward.
    (https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-...-conference-7/) (YouTube video: iBxpwOmAQcw)

    Yes, we can't possibly know what he was thinking at that moment. He was quite obviously saying the G7 met to plan a global food shortage and it is an outrage that news organizations didn't take misspeaking one word totally out of context and report the opposite of what was clearly the main idea of his answer. They actually reported on the entire context, which is obvious to anyone with a pulse.
    I agree with you 1000%, and as you know, I am someone that detests the polarization of society, which is the natural consequence of floating news stories with a narrative.

    On the other hand, something's not right here: last week, in CT, a hatchery that produces eggs went up in flames. This was one of several unexplained fires that occurred in meat packing plants, etc.; something's not right.

    Unfortunately, because the mainstream news refuses to cover stories adequately, it creates a vacuum that's filled with sensationalistic conspiracy theories.

    Exactly.

    There's no happy medium here, and even politically neutral posters have to look at events, and acknowledge a confluence of "coincidental" events.

    As you can tell many are refusing to. Too much is invested in a belief system or narrative to ever do that.

    But this is normal according to history.

    Context matters. How many fires in 2022? how does that compare with the numbers of the past 10 years? The issue seems that one side refuses to cover the story, and the other side refuses to honestly cover it.

    Agreed, but there's another issue at play: just the mere mention of foul play, raises the ire of many "free" thinkers, whose normalcy bias prevents them from seeing or thinking about anything outside the box.

    On the other side are freaks who get some kind of rush off of bad news.

    In both cases, it's the thinking that produces the behavior.

    It is. But I guess what you mean by "bringing it up". If you mean people are asking reasonable questions like "why isn't this getting any mainstream coverage when egg prices are crazy?" Sure, they should be applauded, not attacked. It's another when people question but then apply their own answers like "this is Biden's plan to starve people". Those people should be challenged for those positions.
