  • On April 1, 2022, (April Fools' Day), the website VerveTimes published an article positing that starting in April 2024, the U.S. government would ban real meat, replacing it with plant-based substitutes: This item was not a factual recounting of real-life events. The article originated with a website that describes its output as being humorous or satirical in nature, as follows: Mention of the Great Reset in the article's opening sentence is a reference to a conspiracy theory that posits a cabal of secretive global elites were bent on using the COVID-19 pandemic to advance their interests and push forward a globalist plot to destroy American sovereignty and prosperity, according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), which tracks hate and extremism. As is often the case with conspiracy theories that invoke a global elite, the conspiracy theory has been used to espouse anti-Semitic ideas, per the ADL. For background, here is why we sometimes write about satire/humor. (en)
