It's interesting looking back on how the whole discourse of "You will eat the bugs and live in the pod" evolved. The firs I time I heard of people eating buts was on this tv show of some candy store selling fried crickets and crickets coated in honey. This was in the early 2000's and was treated as a novelty. It was kind of interesting back then.
Now you have scientists researching bugs as a food source for mass production and elites who want to shill it. The thing I notice about the criticism about the promotion of the bugs is that it's not so much about the bugs themselves but more about how the elites want to push social control over what you eat. It's about the elites trying to rob you of choice and agency.
The bugs are also probably not a sufficient source of protein anyway. You'd have to get a massive quantity of them to feed people and you would do that via factory farming. At that point you get all the problems that come with factory farming.
I guess my view is that eating bugs on an individual level is fine as long as it's voluntary. Not when it's some form of social engineering done by the elites trying to push some new trend onto the rest of us.
