This is creepy, authoritarian, anti-freedom, and the "stupid" kind of performative. He's a step away from shrieking about tunnels and adrenochrome.

Anyone here who likes him is humiliated once again.

I hate mayonnaise. Maybe I should run for governor of Florida and ban that. Who needs personal preferences on taste and texture when Ron DeSantis can pick for you?

Presumably a lab-grown meat company will sue and this law will be overturned, but given how much right-wing brain rot has crept into the judiciary lately, who knows?

Is there any scientific evidence that suggests lab grown meat is unsafe for consumption, or is this just more culture war posturing from DeSantis?

Even if there is, remember how Republicans acted when NYC banned large cups for sodas? All the "muh freedom" and all that? In my state, we made it illegal for any city or county to enact such a ban because people should have the freedom to use as large of a cup as they want for Coke or sweet tea. So for Republicans to turn around and banning artificial meat over "health concerns" would be pretty rich.

What I don't get is how this is a "culture war" thing in the first place. Lab-grown meat isn't very common among people in any political persuasion, and the only way it ever will be is if they get to the point where it's cheaper than real meat and takes identical or close to it. If that happens, people of all politics will decide to save the money and eat it.
