I'm gen z and the milk propaganda was everywhere lmao, what's this person talking about

I think one big difference is that many people now recognize it as propaganda, whereas I remember a time when that stuff was just taken as wisdom and the dairy industry seemed to be a part of the health industry (that was also assumed to be in it for society's good rather than profit). Losing that trust was pretty big.
