    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.

      They never will. Especially now that we’ve elected an authoritarian dictator who is hellbent on exacting retribution on anyone who may have slighted him.

      And that includes literally just reporting objective reality. They might jail or execute one or two journalists to send a message, but they’ll fall in line.

    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.

      I’ve seen a documentary about the Jan 6th timeline and one insurrectionist said this in an interview. He couldn’t think anymore and everything about it seemed like the best thing since the invention of toast. He allegedly saw his errors in hindsight. I’m more than convinced he is back in the cult. Can’t fix stupid.

      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’ve been involved in a number of cults both as a leader and a follower. You have more fun as a follower but you make more money as a leader.

      Drugs may be bad for one’s health, but orgies are good. So yes please. I’ll be the cult leader with prima noctae right.

    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.

      And if you kill off brown people, you solve their demographic “issue” (it’s not actually an issue, they’re just racists). Two birds with one stone.

    If they allow non-prescription antibiotic use too, and gut Federal law requiring quarantine, that’s a great way to get resistant strains of tuberculosis.

    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 “farm sales” do you mean from a small herd kept by an actual farmer who is geographically close to the purchaser; as opposed to buying from either an industrial creamery and/or factory farm?

          Milk, by its very nature, has some risk involved in its consumption… but from udder to mouth it’s not exactly akin to Russian roulette / certain death as some are claiming.

          I know. It’s, potentially, an absolute tragedy. These (adult) people are so confident / smug in avoiding the “woke virus” that they seem to have forgotten that it’s the real viruses and pathogens that take us out. In droves. Throughout history. Again and again.

          It seems like hoping for millions of children and infants to die is a really ghoulish thing to do. You apparently already gave it a try.

            Yes, a month will kill MILLIONS and MILLIONS of children. And I gave it a try in my backyard, yes. You’re clearly on top of things.

              A month of salmonella epidemic could, indeed, kill millions of children within a month. It can also continue long after that month is over even if the person who caused the damage is out of power.

              But let’s say we’re just talking about 5 children. That’s still ghoulish. I’m not sure why you’re not understanding that.

              Or do you think diseases spread by raw milk are aware of who they’re infecting and what age they are and know when to back off?

                Ok, let’s be realistic: only some dumbass company would try it and only some people would drink it and then a few would land in the hospital. There won’t be millions dead even in your wildest wet dreams because distribution its is controlled and people would prepare for it. Besides, people don’t usually pass on salmonellosis like airborne covid, and the mortality rate is way lower anyway.

                But let’s say we’re just talking about 5 children

                Why does it gotta be children, though? I didn’t think I’d see some peral clutching this early but here we are. lol Always with the damn children as if other people don’t exist. I can’t even begin to describe how hard I just rolled my eyes, I think I pulled several eye muscles reading that.

                That’s still ghoulish

                Not as ghoulish as all his other policies that would make actual millions suffer and thousands more die? Bet.

                Or do you think diseases spread by raw milk are aware of who they’re infecting

                Idk you tell me, you’re the one stuck with the Save the Children™ mentality.

                (And, yes, I’m only humoring you because you think I’m serious. Good lord this site is unbearable sometimes with people like you who decide to ackshually obvious hyperbole and meaningless rhetoric. Sometimes it’s just a throwaway comment that expresses some frustration and nothing more, goddamn. lol)

                  Why children? Because they have nothing to do with American politics since they have no say in the matter, but you want them to be part of the collective punishment anyway.

                  This should be obvious to you.

                  Also, “I’m not as much of a ghoul as they are” is not the defense of yourself that you think it is.

                  And I don’t buy the “the horrible thing I just said was a joke” from you any more than I buy it when Trump makes the same claim.
