    This headline is two steps away from saying ‘‘Our glorious and civil wheat vs Their wretched and evil rice’’.

      It’s funny, because even IF we turn our brains off long enough to humour this idea, why exactly should we automatically assume this vaunted “individualism” is inherently superior?

        Most people who profess individualism are quite sorry individuals.

          wheat is capitalism. brown rice is socialism. and then when you have white rice, that’s communism

        There are so many other good grains y’all. Millet, barley, quinoa, oats (great as groats!), bulgur (wheat), etc. Mix and match, the more the merrier!

      And it’s not like Europe have a good climate for rice farming, those things have historical reasons.

      millet was often preferred, and wheat has certainly been a thing for a long time.

      Tzarist Russia before it had wheat too, and peasantry had a very collectivist mindset

        not only does the Economist remain the mouthpiece of British millionaires (the Lenin quote needs to be updated to “billionaires”), but it also is just abhorrently stupid

          Billionaires get to enjoy their own farts and working class reading that gets a bit more garbage into its consciousness. Being abhorrently stupid doesn’t hurt anybody (except for maybe the advancement of humanity as a whole)

            arguably the stupidity in their press is a form of psychological warfare to worsen the thinking capacity of the reader, can’t have the rabble thinking dangerously good thoughts (like those contained in Marxist texts).
