Many will go to extreme lengths to fool themselves into thinking they are looking after their bodies, but few will, (or can?), think about their souls.
Exactly. And the government needs to stop misinforming people about what's good or bad for them. That way people will be better equipped to be responsible for their own health
Briggs the Magnificent displaying otherworldly psychic powers. But do we have an excess deaths count yet for consumption of raw milk? It's odd ... graveyards are full of the foolish who ate peanuts. But back when the US of A was overrun with my fellow baby boom kids (who all grew up to be sociopaths, I'm told), we were constantly amid hordes of youngsters, and I knew exactly 1 kid who suffered from an allergy. We could have eaten tree bark or cat dander and remain unscathed.
I buy raw milk for the taste but I still pasteurize it myself by heating it on the lowest setting to just before boiling. Still tastes great and no worries about catching something that the cow 🐄 has
I guessed as much, but was just exaggerating for entertainment sake. Odd coincidence — I just drank a big glass of goat’s milk. Organic brand from Austria. Felt mild respiratory something or other. Down the drain with it. But I have hardly drank any milk for many years. Did like the goat milk when I tried it in the past. Guess I’ll leave it be. It was pasteurized though.
Yeah to me it’s not worth the risk and I don’t believe all that woo woo stuff about pasteurization killing nutrients or whatever. Even if it does kill some I don’t want to catch a disease. Goats milk is pretty good and it’s tolerated better than cows milk for people with lactose intolerance. The strangest milk I’ve ever tried? Camels 🐪 milk. I bought some in Dubai. Kinda disappointing. Very light and almost watery, not rich. I was bracing for something gamey but it wasn’t.
Raw milk - is real milk. it offers enormous benefits when it is grass fed and local. The Amish are a great control group. Pasteur backtracked on the benefits of his "process". Lots of rural boomers grew up on raw milk and now cant get it thanks to fear psyops from big ag dairy lobbyists. wtf? drinking camels milk in Dubai. and wont drink raw milk here at home. you are one of the people mark twain was talking about.
Incorrect. You seem to have a very idealistic view of the past in which ruddy cheeked healthy peasants milked their own grass fed cows and drank milk straight from the pail 🪣 and the cow teat. I can assure you that the vast majority of American boomers - even in the country - didn’t grow up drinking raw milk! Hell, even my dad, who was born in the 1930s in the days of daily milk delivery, didn’t grow up drinking raw milk. Why in the world do you think Pasteur became interested in the process that bears his name? Duh 😒. It’s because in the good old days people often became ill and some died from tainted milk! Yeah I drank PASTEURIZED camels milk in Dubai. What of it? I have also bought raw milk from local farmers in the United States. Guess what? I heat it myself to be safe. In other countries raw milk is sold freely, unlike the states. I heat it up there too. I’m not gonna tell you what to do. You want to drink raw milk? Do you! No skin off my ass. I just hope you don’t get sick. Spare me the woo woo crap about the supposed “enormous benefits” of raw milk, which you can’t name. Eat friggin yogurt and cheese if you want enzymes and probiotics. Sheesh 😒
More egregious perhaps, than the banned tobacco products and foods, are the banned thoughts. Thinking itself appears to have been outlawed, especially in schools, as have been questions. Everywhere. About almost everything!
The public health department of Sanata Clara County, California recently imposed a masking requirement on health care facilities in the county for no apparent reason other than to train the citizens of this county to obey the far left politicians who govern this county.
“You may not eat, drink, or smoke that which the government and its Enlightened advisors fears.”
Needs an asterisk footnote reading “unless the government can significantly tax your product, in which case, they’ll slap a useless label on it and continue to tax sales of said product while chastising executives and consumers.”
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
I find this quote to be disturbingly true. But I think C.S. profoundly underestimated and failed to predict the evolutionary trajectory of exceptional robber baron families such as Rothschild, Carnegie and Rockefeller .
I would suggest that they became “omnipotent moral busybodies” once their wealth was secured. I doubt they cared a bit about others on their way to their riches.
I would argue that they evolved into what is essentially a next level of Parasite. The likes of which our immune system struggles to make peace with. What would be the political equivalent of ivermectin?
Some of your commenters appear to be part of the brainwashed. As you said would happen. Plato's cave dwellers will live and die in fear of thinking for themselves.
We used to have lawn darts when I was a kid--you don't see those any more. S-a-f-e-t-y! All you older folks out there--remember all those kids who got rushed to the hospital with holes in them from a game of lawn darts gone wrong? Yeah, me neither...
I have noticed that many will go to tremendous lengths to save their body, but will scarcely lift a finger to save their soul.
That, in a nutshell, explains the current state of the human condition.
One could re-phrase that truism, LG. How about:

Health is not a government responsibility; it is a personal responsibility.

Banning meat is on the agenda........eat ze bugs. Meat is the original superfood. (beef especially)
What you didn´t foresee from the BAN TRANS FAT idea, would be the eventual necessity to BAN the FAT TRANS!
Politicians love to "save us" from "boogie men" that don't exist; It's easier to accomplish.

CS Lewis was spot on:
“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”

Uhh ... .30 calibre?
And I, FJ, very much "doubt they cared a bit about others" after they achieved their current state of fiscal bliss.
