Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

You’ve actually pretty much got it. There’s the wellness to fascism pipeline, which includes seed-oil-phobia and beef-tallow-philia. The biggest proponent right now is likely the current US secretary of health and human services RFK jr., who in a recent interview at a steak and shake decried seed oils in favour of beef tallow.
I don’t actually think there’s much of a hyper-masculine angle to it, but wouldn’t be surprised if I’m wrong. I think the manosphere would be more into eating meat that needs to be hunted. I don’t look much at that part of the internet.
More discussion at a.s here
I feel like I've seen chud weirdos ranting about seed oils suppressing testosterone levels, but I could be hallucinating
I’d believe it! I don’t spend much time looking at the specifics of chud weirdo discourse, but that definitely sounds like something they’d pull out of their ass.
