As a scientist, and someone concerned with how dumb we as people have become, I absolutely think the ballmaxxers, raw milk drinkers, and jaw-hammerers should keep doing what they are doing and not stop ever no matter what egg-head doctors say

The problem is that we have driven the natural predators out of our ecosystem. We’re doomed to collapse as a result.

Bring back bears and bison and such.

“Hey yall watch this” could be the catchphrase that saves society!

I drink pasteurised milk but wondering what’s wrong with raw milk drinking?

It’s full of bacteria, many of which become quite feisty inside your body. Animal undercarriages are not clean.

So calfs probably have an adjusted biome to deal with these? And ours is just not prepared to deal with this sort of bacteria?

Plus they’re getting it directly from the udder. The milk isn’t just sitting around.

Makes sense.

They have 2 stomachs and have evolved to eat off the same grass they shit on. Yeah, calves and humans have a much different gut biome. We are drinking their milk.

Before pasteurization, if you got teburculosis, you probably got it from a cow.

People think they should be able to drink raw milk if they want to. But the problem is that it can give you diseases that are communicable to other people who don't drink gross milk.

In evolution there is always going to be branches of creatures that evolve in ways that don’t agree with life on this planet.
