    I asked my wife what was with all the raw milk promotion lately. We drove through rural MO and stores had “raw milk sold here” on signage.

    Seems fine to me. This was like when the Republicans refused to vax only to end up killing themselves. Let them fuck around. They’ll find out soon enough.

    But this article is a hell of a leap if all they got is that shirt.

      Unfortunately, that’s not the full picture. People got infected and transmitted to a lot of other people, and a lot of innocents ended up dead.

      When it comes to bird flu, more people being inconsequential about it, and deliberately getting it gives the virus a greater chance to develop mutations, and maybe affecting us in the long run. This is a really dangerous thing, and those people are doing something that puts us all in risk.

    when i see this carp, all i can think of is:

    Even the best-behaved children can be difficult and challenging at times. But oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) includes a frequent and ongoing pattern of anger, irritability, arguing and defiance toward parents and other authority figures. ODD also includes being spiteful and seeking revenge, a behavior called vindictiveness.

      When I see this carp, all I can think is I would have preferred salmon.

      (I’m sorry I’ll see myself out)

      (Also your point is very legit)

      Ahaha!

      Now, does this still apply when they’re knowingly being The Worst to pander?

      ODD somehow is about the only way I’ve found to successfully make me study; it does not, however, make one stupid (or suicidal, usually). Red hatters do that to themselves.

      I was ‘diagnosed’ with ODD at a young age. The reason is because I could clearly see when adults were lying and trying to manipulate me.

        that doesn’t seem to be the case here; drinking raw milk is dangerous.

          Oh no, I totally understand that. Just trying to provide my viewpoint on a bogus ‘diagnosis’.

      You joke, but crop milk is a thing:

      Crop milk is a secretion from the lining of the crop of parent birds in some species that is regurgitated to young birds. It is found among all pigeons and doves where it is also referred to as pigeon milk. Crop milk is also secreted from the crop of flamingos and the male emperor penguin, suggesting independent evolution of this trait. Unlike in mammals where only females produce milk, crop milk is produced by both males and females in pigeons and flamingos; and in penguins, only by the male. Lactation in birds is controlled by prolactin, which is the same hormone that causes lactation in mammals.

    Oh fuck those guys!

    Now it’s gonna be like anybody wearing a red hat, or Hindus and swastikas.

    I drink raw milk because I know where it comes from, and for some reason it cures my lactose intolerance.

    I don’t really understand it, and by really I mean like not at all, maybe whatever a probiotic is?

    Idk, I just know that if I drink it every now and then, then it lets me drink regular store milk without getting sick, but it’s local and tastes better so🤷

    I, for one, think that people who listen to Turning Point USA should drink raw milk to show how not dangerous bird flu.

      That would be great if they didn’t have to interact with the rest of us. I don’t want Plague 2.

    As long as raw milk doesn’t give you any contagious diseases that can be passed on to sane, responsible people, I’m fine with this.

      It ultimately does sooner or later, but it can often take the rest of society with it. That’s why accelerationism doesn’t work.

      That’s what we all thought when covid happened, and they decided they wouldn’t do anything to avoid it, and started taking horse dewormers.
