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.
Hilariously, they’ll be culling their own herd, so to speak. You just know the MAGAts will never wear masks again, even to save their own lives.
It’s the brain parasite that lives in raw milk saying that.
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.
I think everyone is making way too much out of this. What could possibly go wr-
Oh.
Weird, I didn’t get a paywall with the first one.
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.
You would hope so, but there’s just as many ‘crunchy’ people on the left as there are in the right.
Yeah, my anarchocommunist cousin had to have explosive diarrhea like half a dozen times before she’d admit it was raw milk causing it.
Get ready, there’s going to be a whole lot of peeling off the warning labels.
I wonder, well they outright outlaw vaccines, or they just be privatized only…
RFK’s version of the conspiracy is that vaccines are a scam inflicted by private pharma. Given his druthers, he would probably outlaw not just vaccines, but all corporation-produced medicine.
I wanna say yay Darwin will save the day but I’m too afraid of intentional sabotage on pasteurized milk.
Today’s Republican Party didn’t get into their position of awesome power by listening to experts…
“I think, the people of this country have had of experts” - Michael Gove, (during UK brexit campaign)
Alex Jones will now be replaced by this idiot fuckwad. Buckle up for the crazy!
Alex Jones could only dream of having this kind of power.
With how the cabinet appointments have been going, he’ll probably get a position soon enough.
I wouldn’t be shocked. Honestly, I’m only surprised none of them have been fictional people yet.
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.
You’re sort of right ( based on the article I think you read about) The cats drank bird flu contaminated raw milk which led to them dying. that being said, for that reason, raw milk is very dangerous to humans because pasteurized milk wouldn’t be as dangerous. https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/04/concerning-spread-of-bird-flu-from-cows-to-cats-suspected-in-texas/
RFK is secretly a flu virus wearing a human suit.
[preface and disclaimer: I’m remembering off the top of my head something I read over 30 years ago, details may not be exactly correct]
Not sure whether you remember the chapter of Sideways Stories from Wayside School, by Louis Sachar, in which there was a student who nobody liked, who was a real asshole and wore a stinky raincoat. The kids kept trying to take off his raincoat, but underneath was another, stinkier raincoat, just layers and layers of progressively stinky raincoats, and with every raincoat removed, the kid just became a bigger asshole and his laugh louder and more high-pitched.
At the very end, he turned out to be a dead rat in a pile of stinky raincoats.
That’s what the whole administration is shaping up to be. Except we knew this was coming and allowed it to happen, so I guess that, ultimately, we are the dead rat.
On the plus side the high mortality rate should lower the spread.
True, but on the minus side, dumb people actively seeking out the infected milk would artificially increase the instances and thus the spread.

I’m sorry I only see benefits here.
I don’t care. Do you?
They voted for this, they can deal with the consequences.
Normally I’d say that I don’t want this to happen to a bunch of people who don’t deserve it, but drinking raw milk is preventable and not contagious, and therefore entirely self-contained, right? So yeah, sow those seeds, guys, I’m totally owned.
But on the plus side, dumb people actively infect themselves and get removed from the gene pool.
But on the minus side, other people don’t have the choice to completely avoid those dumb people and thus minimize their risk of infection.
If they did, covid wouldn’t have been a tenth as bad as it was/is.
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
Junior’s gonna get that job.
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.
the guy responsible for the death of 83 Samoans has more health advice …
Oh god he’s gonna kill someone
Again
That’s the plan.
He’s already killed a lot of people.
He also likely killed some people with his anti COVID vaccine rhetoric back in 2020.
Don’t worry, the worms will protect your brain…
If it didn’t risk spreading disease to everyone else, I would totally be on board with letting science deniers drink more raw milk
By experts, do they mean anyone that paid attention to science and/or history classes in any developed country?
