Oh, they were already there. Someone I know who regularly bumps into the raw milk people was recently telling me he was surprised just how many of them are huge Trump supporters. They were ranting to him about how this is just another hoax and that they aren't scared.
Probably has something to do with the crunchy to alt right pipeline, if I had to guess.
I've had occasion to buy raw milk to test making different cheeses (that hobby didn't last long enough to produce much cheese, sadly). This would have been before Trump was a big thing in politics, but I swear every person I met there was a damn tea party nut.
If you go far enough down the political spectrum everything comes together eventually, and I think raw milk is one of those points. Both right and left seem to have an equal standing.
Lefties are interested in it for the natural side or its different cooking properties. Rightys are making sure the government isn't putting female replacement hormones or some nonsense when pasturizing.
And here I am, drinking half and half because I need to go to the store.
And that's fine. What we need to do is not collectively be pushovers and call them out on their bullshit this time around. While not universal, many of us averted our eyes and ignored their behavior and I honestly feel it's costing us.
Hawkins: I've got it! I've got it! The pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle; the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true! Right?
Griselda: Right. But there's been a change: they broke the chalice from the palace!
Hawkins: They *broke* the chalice from the palace?
Griselda: And replaced it with a flagon.
Hawkins: A flagon...?
Griselda: With the figure of a dragon.
Hawkins: Flagon with a dragon.
Griselda: Right.
Hawkins: But did you put the pellet with the poison in the vessel with the pestle?
Griselda: No! The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon! The vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true!
Hawkins: The pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon; the vessel with the pestle has the brew that is true.
Griselda: Just remember that.
And once again, it won't be the stupid people killing themselves. They're going to spread the virus, and kill old people, babies, and the immunocompromised. Hospitals will be sapped of resources, services will be distupted, Big Pharma will make money, and life will continue to get shittier while we tolerate stupidity.
That's a scary thought. I am fortunate that I have never had such a factor as obesity to affect me in this way, but if I had, I would already be well through over half of my life. That's scary to me.
Ah yes, this is exactly what Republicans wanted. A bunch of forced "anchor babies".
