I learned about pasteurization in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. These people are deeply uneducated.
They very likely learned about it then, too. It’s not lack of education; it’s lack of intelligence.
You fool. That’s what Big Milk wanted you to believe.

I’ll believe whatever big milk wants me to. 😏
We’re witnessing the end result of decades of baked-n American Exceptionalism and “rugged individualism”: a bunch of selfish pricks literally willing to kill themselves and others out of some bizarre form of oppositional defiant disorder.
This is the American Dream, folks.
Birds fuck in milk.
I kinda get risking a tummy ache for raw milk if that’s your thing. I don’t get risking being patient zero in a bird flu pandemic.
I think people have already proven that they rather kill their families and neighbours than experience a mild inconvenience.
The inconvenience in question here is not being able to do something unimaginably stupid.
It’s not even an inconvenience. Raw milk is harder to get, more expensive, and doesn’t keep as long. And it’s the sort of thing you have to actively look for to find it.
The thing I can’t figure out is where these dumb opinions and attitudes are coming from and why is it getting worse? I can’t go on social media without coming across something insanely stupid within a few minutes (like, I just saw a pro-raw milk post this morning on Facebook). But it’s not just online - I’m seeing more and more “normal” people I know just adopt patently false ideas.
Like, what’s happening to our society that people are just not using critical thinking anymore?
Have we considered attaching electrodes to Louis Pasteur’s corpse? He’s probably spinning so fast in his grave we could solve the world’s energy problems.
People deserve a right to do to and with their bodies what they want.
People do not have the right to carelessly endanger other people. This goes for many things from second hand smoke to negligently spreading infectious diseases.
Milk is for baby cows
not exclusively
They want it because of the risk of bird flu.
Remember the “inject covid into my eyeballs” crowd?
Excuse me, the what?
The folks who went to parties specifically to catch covid, acting like it was a chicken pox party.
Which we also don’t do anymore because while it’s relatively safe to get chicken pox as a kid, it’s even safer to just get a shot now that we have a vaccine for it.
