    It’s better to stop reading the headline at the word “diet” . You can then envision RFK Jr roaming around farmland feasting on live animals. Perched like a gargoyle on top of a cow carcass, blood covering his face as he greedily stuffs chunks of meat into his mouth. The farmers look on in horror. They know there’s nothing they can do because he has the backing of the Republican party and the president. The farmer dials the number for his cattle supplier with a shakey hand as he watches RFK Jr. pull off the cows full leg with his teeth.

    Funny how our animal agriculture industry is collapsing and prices for meat are skyrocketing thanks to climate change.

    Hey, you idiot goobers. Fight for your meat! If you can’t afford meat, work harder. Sleep less, hustle more. Join ICE. We just increased their budget to $170M, I’m sure they’ve got enough spare coin for a few BBQs,

    It is interesting reading the new guidelines. It’s almost like you can read between the lines and see the statements from real scientists trying to walk back the “just load up on beef and dairy” statements dropped on top of everything.

    Like it will say, “get lots of healthy fats from butter, tallow, and beef” on one line, but further down you’ll see a statement about the importance of decreasing saturated fats.
