It is.

Whats the issue with using their discovery servers? Has something changed regarding this?

Vargas’ Brazil was the most prominent fascist nation outside Europe.

Was it really though? Seems like a bit of a stretch… But ok.

Maybe the japanese empire (before ww2), or the south african apartheid regime, but vargas?

Brazil did have the integralist party which was the largest fascist-like movement outside europe, but vargas didnt really go along with them.

The 2.0 update was made into a new package in fdroid, so that you paid close attention to the upgrade, as it could maybe break things.

Damn right! All that immagery and symbolism is a real dealbreaker for me too!

Did they keep announcing it was going to happen beforehand like they are doing now?

My point is about how people trust new types of food. Knowing the name of the compounds in a food doesnt help in making someone trust it. People trust alimentary habits that are centuries old more than a newly developed method that they have no familiarity with. Im talking about trust on safety regulations rather than the actual regulations.

A scientist telling you the name of every compound of some food doesnt make you actually know whats in it. Theres a big difference between knowing the name and knowing the thing and how it affects your body.

Call it something else, rebrand it. We could say that if it didnt come from an animal, its not meat, its just a protein cake or a red pudding, or something. Could it avoid the ban this way?

They didnt ban any vegan protein source, they banned the exact one that tries to make you feel like youre eating beef. The name “Lab-grown meat” tells those ranchers that it wants to replace them, its unnecessarily aggressive, which innevitably creates a reaction.
