Tbf, breastmilk isn't normally pasteurized
And it’s immediately consumed usually, or is frozen and its composition differs from cows milk and is designed for human consumption.
Don’t know why you brought that up, unless it’s to point out how stupid people are thinking unpasteurized cows milk is drinkable because human milk doesn’t need to be.
Also, unlike cows, humans generally tend to give lots of outside signals of having listeriosis.
They're less likely to have shit on them, too.
That's true. That's not what listeria though, but it does cause most of the other scary milk diseases.
I hear thats a good way to determine if some one is King as well.
I think it was a joke. A little levity in the midst of all this chaos and intentional hardship.
Yes, the deal with dairy farmers drinking the unpasteurized milk from their cows daily is that it’s consumed within 24hrs and then replaced with the next days milk.
RFK is a dipshit and MAGA is likely running with him for two reasons. Cutting FDA regs, insurance policing, fluoride, and vaccines save money. (Put another way, it keeps “their” money where it belongs, away from the working class.) It also thins the herd in the continuing decline of available resources while the planet fails.
is designed
No design was involved in the process of evolution
Don’t know why you brought that up
It's called humour. And some people in the comments actually got the joke.
It's obvious that "unpasteurized milk" is referring to cow's milk. Don't get pissed at me when you can't understand humour.
And before you say anything, we're in a memes community. It shouldn't be a surprise that people are trying to make jokes here
From those two numbers I think you need to work on your comedy routine. It was a bit…. curdled

It typically is pasteurized if it comes from a woman other than the baby's own mother. If it is donated milk, for example.

Internet was a mistake. It gave all the anti science people and crackpots a platform for their ideas.
Making it easy was the mistake, the internet was great when knowing what tcp/ip actually is was a barrier to entry.
Gatekeeping isn't a dirty word.
this would would only help our sanity, the stupid people would still be stupid, just not as loudly
Them being stupid, loudly, together, is making all of them stupider as individuals, too.
The ad populum fallacy on full display.
I don't know, man. I saw a Facebook poll saying ad populum isn't a thing.
This also exposed just how many stupid people are out there. We all assumed that making infinite knowledge available would be the rising tide which lifts all boats; instead, the rising tide is a tsunami of idiocy and willful ignorance.
I know that I was completely wrong in this regard. You know, like how Mark Twain said something like travel was anathema to bigotry.
So, I thought that the reason bigotry existed was that people are afraid of the unknown, so if you forced people together, they'd have to realize that we're all the same.
But now I realize that the main reason bigotry exists is that people are staying in contact with other bigots. The part about meeting diverse people is important, but far less important than pulling people out of their comfort zone to combat bigotry. So, the internet amplifies bigotry, because they'll never be out-of-contact with their local bigots, even if they travel away from them.
Can we please just make network that has a higher barrier to entry than spending 1000 dollars on an iPhone but through a 4 year loans?
And before some c suite fuck head reads this, I don't mean cost more money. I mean cost just a tiny bit more intellectually.
Are we not already on such a network? There are some here that moan about the Fediverse being too hard of a concept for the laymen to wrap their heads around. I do not disagree with them, but I like to see it as a moron filter that doesn't seem to exist on most other places on the internet.
I mean, I just went to a site and made an account.
Facebook has the same barriers in place, and ironically enough, I can view our content without an account and not theirs.
I mean, a lotta fucking Nazis knew what TCP/IP was back in the 80s, too.
Its not anti science to not blindly trust science. Its actual science to try and verify observations. Sure, most people dont have those skills to properly know what they are observing, but I think its good if people try to learn.
I learned tons of stuff about the common pitfalls about measuring the curvature of the earth by looking at flat earth arguments and seeing what science says about them.
Today you can throw those arguments into chat gpt and get a decent summary of how anything actual works.
Using lasers to track earth curvature across a big lake for example, absolutely fascinating to see why it doesnt work as you may expect.
My brother is a crank because ChatGPT enables him.
Using lasers to track earth curvature across a big lake for example, absolutely fascinating to see why it doesnt work as you may expect.
Why would it not work as I expect? I'm expecting some beam decoherence, and possible deflecting due to temperature differences over a cold lake.

Tbf, the same was said about the printing press back then
Carving symbols on stone tablets was a mistake
Our species developing speech was a mistake
Climbing down from the trees was the begining of the end.

Only a rich crackpot could distribute pamphlets claiming colloidal silver cures cancer, and then they'd still only reach people in walking distance.
Now, any moron can reach literally the entire world at no cost or effort.
mrrrreow
For the last time?! These "modern scientists" are sure not history researchers then!
Spelling out each decimal of bitcoin instead of using standard notation like everywhere else ...
Scientists once again remind you to not swim in shit.
The CDC told me it was ok. Polio is good for you because it prevents autism.

Second part should be "And climatechange is real."
Third part should be, "We pasteurize milk for a good fucking reason."
pretending that generation didn't hobble science for anti-intellectual cultists is just bullshit
what happened to stem cell research in the USA exactly?

Wrong. Flat Earthers do think the Earth is round.
The rest of us think it's spherical.
Latest and greatest flat earth is that Antarctica is a wall that encircles us all. Well, it encircles the land that us normies are allowed to know about. Beyond the Antarctic wall lies a vastness of land that us normies are kept unaware of. I am not sure why. It was something to do with the riches of the secret land. Also, no one knows how far the land stretches. So the earth is flat but we don't know how far it goes so we don't know what the shape is really.
Just to be perfectly clear: I am not a flat earther and I don't believe any of the above. It's a load of (very entertaining) nonsense. Keep the documentaries coming please!

"Science" is so full of grifters and bullshit that I'm not surprised flat-earthism is flourishing.
"Scientists", media, politicians, etc... today: I've created an artificial intelligence!!!
"Scientists", media, politicians, etc... today: We found a bacteria (or whatever the fuck) that might solve ~~global warming~~ some climate issues that maybe don't exist!!!
Actual scientists: The planet is literally being destroyed. Primarily by cars.
People: I don't know what to believe.

Well, while I agree that things are pretty shit and regressive, let's not downplay the achievements we've had in the past 10 years:
- Completion of The Standard Model of Physics with the detection of the Higgs Boson.
- mRNA technology, which is now a serious candidate for curing HIV, and is potentially capable of being used against most viral diseases.
- Imaging a black hole. Doing it again. Providing more proof of general relativity.
- Measuring gravity waves. Doing it as a normal measurement now.
- Salt batteries are finally reaching the market, which will eventually end the destructive mining and refinement of lithium.
- The James Webb Space Telescope, which was already making breakthroughs and creating new questions within the first 3 months of activation.
- Solar power becoming incredibly cost effective.
- Cybernetic limbs for the physically disabled. Yes, cybernetic limbs.
- Though overused; medication that effectively combats eating disorders.
These are just the ones I know from the top of my head.
