I believe you can get brain worms from raw milk.
Let's get back to the good old days from the 1700 where we would all die of dysentery!
Can we please make a rule in that stupid US constitution that says that claims from politicians have to be supported by actual peer reviewed scientific evidence before they can utter said claim?
It would make the difference of light and day already
Wait, so Trump was actually serious about this, and not just baiting him for election support? Like, seriously?
Let's see here, RFK wants to ban vaccines and promote raw milk.
There is currently a bird flu epidemic in dairy cattle from bird droppings getting into the feed.
Consuming raw milk is one of the few ways humans can become infected with bird flu.
I'm sure this will be fine and the virus won't mutate to allow for human to human transfer, it if it does luckily it only has a 56% mortality rate compared to the Covid morality rate of ~4% during its peak.
In the US, right now, the dairy farms where they let the cats drink raw milk saw half their cats die.
This is an actual thing.
Edit based on comments below: The context of this thread is concerning hi path AI. I should have been more clear. I am referring to dairy farms where the cows have hi path AI and the cats drink raw milk.
However it is impossible to tell if your raw milk is infected with hi path AI, so to the readers of this who are really in to drinking raw milk, I wish you luck.
trump's appointments are in the style "Who is the worst person i know for the job that lives inside my colon?"
if Pablo Escobar was still alive, he'd probably have been appointed head of the DEA
the guy responsible for the death of 83 Samoans has more health advice …
Oh god he’s gonna kill someone
Try listening to the Behind The Bastards podcast about this guy if you can spare the time.
He is messed up far more than you think.
I think everyone is making way too much out of this. What could possibly go wr-
Oh.
I'm fairly certain, they just all got together to make a list of all the stupid things they could do to own the libs.
The neat thing about this one, is that It only hurts the people that are going to follow him. The people who didn't vote for that side know better.
Raw milk is dangerous. When I was growing up people would get sick all the time from raw milk it gets contaminated all the time.
We can’t even manage to keep listeria out of our waffles and deli meats snd have e coli onions but sure, raw milk will be no problem.
This is the dumbest shit I swear to god. Fuck this timeline already.
If I and my friends and family could be certain of getting immunized against the inevitable H5N1 pandemic, this wouldn't bother me so much. But RFK jr. will combat the flu with honey and whole grains and the death toll will make Covid look like a cold. Thinning the herd. Maybe we'll get lucky and RFK jr & Trump and his true believers will get it first.
Today's Republican Party didn't get into their position of awesome power by listening to experts....
Trump wants the population to be closer to 100 million. He said that before the start of one of his press conferences to a journalist ... something to the effect that "we could use 2/3 less of all of you."
He is willing to kill off a lot of us to make his life easier. The USA elected a right wing Pol Pot.
With any luck MAGAts will self-select in removing themselves like they did during COVID.
Raw milk is totally safe....if the cow is totally healthy and if there aren't pathogens floating around the cow.
I mean, my friend next door used to drink off the cows's teats. His Mom would scold him for it, but he did it to show off. We used to milk their three "city cows". Literally the cows would sleep in their garage and then walk to pasture on an every day basis. They would get milked every morning and we would walk to their house and buy a couple of liters from them. Sometimes cheese or bulgaros yogurt.
Everyone loved the cows. They smelled like cows but you could safely pet them and not expect feces on your hands.
The cows we get milk from are all rolling around in feces in confined space and they eat dry moldy feed. Like that stuff is total animal abuse and prone to end up giving someone a cow Bourne disease of some kind.
My neighbors also had pigs and we had pigs. That is why we never ate pig... cows are clean compared to pigs. Pigs will eat bugs smeared in pig feces. That is not normal really because pigs in the wild, although dirty, do not just swim in their feces like captive pigs do. If you ever want to go vegan for whatever reason, visit a captive pig farm. Learn that smell....then go to the butcher shop's trash bin and learn that smell...then realize that when you get your meat in your fridge, the death smell is what you're smelling. Makes me wanna puke 🤮 just thinking about it. And if your neighbors ever killed a pig, you would know it. Pigs don't go down easy. That's one positive thing I can definitely say about pigs. They know you're gonna kill them and they scream like anyone would....as in a person. It churns you inside out hearing that scream and then when it stops you know it happened. Pigs don't go down quietly.
Anyway don't eat animals, but if you're gonna eat milk or dairy, make sure it's pasteurized! Any well understood retarded person like myself could agree 💯👍.
Newspapers need to just call RFK jr what he is - a child killer. Forget about this raw milk stuff and lay out the direct harm he has caused including deaths of babies from his vaccine misinformation.
He's about to have the authority to effectively ban vaccines.
Yeah but y'know, you gotta have one very last last resort abortion method.
/s lol
Go ahead. Let your anti science cultists get themselves sick. I don't fucking care anymore.
It feels like we're living in the middle of one of those cultist documentaries, where 29 years from now the stupid fucks that survive are going to be on camera going "I know it sounds weird, but it was really compelling at the time". Except this cult doesn't even have fun drug fueled orgies.
He's going to be in a position where he may actually be able to ban pasteurized milk, vaccines, and more.
This is the most dangerous political appointment in US history.
I just hope they have the raw milk distribution set up to go live nationwide at the same time. I want all the people excited for this to get it, and enjoy it for as long as possible before the news gets to them.
Unpasteurised milk drank at cow temperature ‘can’ be fine - depending on the cow, milker and drinker. It’s ludicrous to even suggest it could be safely distributed nationally in the US. He’s an absolute lunatic - and so is anyone who buys it.
By experts, do they mean anyone that paid attention to science and/or history classes in any developed country?
If it didn't risk spreading disease to everyone else, I would totally be on board with letting science deniers drink more raw milk
