    I think the main difference is that people were “apoplectic” when food prices had doubled or tripled in a year or two, and now they’re only going up like 10%. But also because people get used to anything, and apparently one of the things they’re used to right now is food being ridiculously expensive. Thirdly, most people get sick of a subject after a while so they engage less on it. Don’t want another article, don’t want another comment, they just turn it off and look at memes.

      Because the conservative outrage machine stopped focusing on it. You can be 100% assured if Harris had one they’d be threatening impeachment over beef being up 11%.
