Well, that’s about the price for some high fat mince.

A decent steak cut is a lot more.

I’m not in the UK but in Germany. That seems low and Germans are cheap AF. I usually expect things to be more expensive there. I don’t know about Googles overview, but this is what Google has to say.

The average price of beef in the UK varies significantly by cut, with current retail prices for primary cuts typically ranging between £9.00 and £19.00 per kg. As of April 2026, retail beef prices have seen a sharp increase of approximately 16.4% year-on-year due to supply shortages

The average price of ground beef (mince) in the UK has risen significantly, with retail prices typically ranging from £6.18 to £11.00 per kg as of April 2026

Thanks.

Too lazy to figure the exchange rate.

You’re out of touch if you don’t think poor Latin Americans aren’t loading up with tons of beans. Stop putting this north American rich kids who live on impossible burgers mentality to people who are already at the bottom. These people need food not downtown hipster advice

I’m guessing they already eat lentils, beans, chickpeas, etc. But this is not only Milei making people poor (that sucks), it is restricting beef which Argentinians probably are very attached to because of their typical dishes.

I get it. Reducing or eliminating beef from our diets can be great (for the majority), but this is not the way we should expect people to get to this lifestyle (against their ability to choose), so it can be a bad moment to mention the silver linings or even good advice like plant-based protein. That’s my opinion; it reads detached of the problem.

They can eat cake, too.

I just feel bad for the ones not supporting this nonsense.

To be fair the oligarchy tech companies do mass social media manipulation that is basically unchecked.

They do this at the behest of other countries.

I realize we all want to hold people accountable. there is definitely a level of personal responsibility. But it’s worth be aware that mass manipulation is a thing.

It can work fairly effectively.

especially when news and social media is controlled.

Most people are conformist. It’s actually kind of how we as a species have dominated the planet.

Everything that makes us great is also a weakness.

We can make snap judgments. Act instead of letting things happen. Like a lion nabbing us.
We use mental shortcuts and heuristics to do this. The same processes that cause stereotypes and biases.

We look to other humans to learn how to do things like hunt, care for children, grow crops. Determine which plants can be eaten. This reliance on learning from others and doing as they do means we accept many social norms without questioning them. And even if a few people do, these individuals are outcast. Conformity is highly enforced in most cultures.

There is also ways of grooming people that are very effective and the methods are well known.
Cults use them. But so do politicians and other leaders like the anti vaccine people and grifters.

For instance. The more you hear something, the more you believe it’s true because it becomes “common knowledge”. Which is rarely questioned.

The Tech people and grifters manipulating public opinions understands these things about humans. And they use them.

Whitest country in America.

Argentines are wildly unstable and switch between left and right like a grandfather clock.

Argentina fell for western misinformation in western platforms, entirely unsurprising that these things happen when people are exposed to that shit

I swear all you need to be a world leader is a love for fascism and a stupid haircut

It literally tastes like ass
