Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swill_milk_scandal

Swill milk referred to milk from cows fed swill which was residual mash from nearby distilleries. The milk was whitened with plaster of Paris, thickened with starch and eggs, and hued with molasses.

You couldn't make milk like this today. Because of woke.

You couldn't make milk like this today.

Listen, if people want to buy and drink plaster cosplaying as milk, it's their God-given right to, and the government shouldn't have a say. Let the invisible hand of the Free Market™ decide whether or not it's a good idea.

The FDA this month also suspended existing and developing programs that ensured accurate testing for bird flu in milk and cheese and pathogens like the parasite Cyclospora in other food products.

I, for one, welcome our Glorious Cat Overlords and I hope they are successful in culling the human herd as they see fit. Please, remember me. For I am one of the good ones.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 days ago

Holy crap. I won't be able to stop thinking about that phrase.

Let me introduce you to our friends at Bayer-Monsanto

Never happier to be vegan, tho lacka FDA inspections will surely be fuckin up plant-based too

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago

Maybe the FDA director will put out a video saying that E. coli is natural so it isn't bad. And in fact it makes veggies pop with flavor.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago

I was just thinking the same thing. The entirety of US food supply is going to be massively impacted by the flippant disregard of safety regulations.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 days ago

so much for vegetarian

It's even funnier that he supports this administration, then.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

I would respect him if he didn't back down.

Don't worry, the FDA is refusing to name the companies responsible for the E. coli outbreak in lettuce as well.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

Uhhh, non-USA gang stay winning..?
