"The Right’s ‘Natural’ Meat Obsession Is a Regressive Fantasy" by @sentientmedia

<💬>
Another component for Kennedy of what constitutes “natural” is taking on things like red food dye, seed oils and ultra-processed foods — while promoting tallow, raw milk and grass-fed beef.

Vegans often are faced with fallacious arguments, and one of the most common is the Naturalistic fallacy.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturali

However, this is often a bad faith disguise. The use of naturalistic fallacies in these contexts, such as the claim that consuming animals is "good" because it's natural, is a disguise for another more insidious fallacy: the traditionalist fallacy or "appeal to tradition".

simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appe

The traditionalist fallacy is, in this context, the argument that "consuming animals is good because we've done it for thousands of years".

Traditionalism is heavily political, as the people are finding out again in places such as the US. It's sometimes known as "paleoconservatism", and it should be no surprise that the popularity of the "paleo diet" culturally connects to this.

Conservatives, ever since the rise of modernity (end of 'traditional' society, end of monarchism and feudalism) have been trying to reinvent the past through pseudointellectual and pseudoscientific efforts. This has been at the heart of incredible amounts of suffering and horror since then. I have some notes on that on my pinned thread: veganism.social/deck/@veganpiz

Bullshit & snake oil are not vegan.

A support cheers for Robert F. Kennedy Jr

Loving the discussion surrounding this @PNASNews publication on Phanerozoic #paleo #temperature evolution, one of the most interesting #paleoclimate discussions in my opinion.

Critique: 6-10 degrees #tropical #ocean #temperatures during the #Ordovician seem very low to me, especially considering that in this time (450 million years ago) corals were thriving. The critical comment by Ethan Grossman and colleagues therefore seems fitting.

Congratulations to Elisa Ziegler and the Palmod co-authors on the new paper on #paleo #climatechange in the journal Climate of the Past 🎉
Our new paper looks into systematic changes in higher-order moments of temperature and precipitation distributions based on 💻 simulations of the 27000 years of climate. This is interesting, because from the 🧊 Glacial Maximum 21 thousand years ago to today the 🌍 warmed by around 5 degrees🌡️, leading to the loss of ice sheets over the Deglaciation, and culminating in the warm Holocene -- every step of the way led to changes in climate dynamics 🌬️ 🌄.

In another, Paul Saladino, a popular fitness influencer also known as Carnivore MD, shirtlessly sings the supposed praises of raw milk, saying, "This is nothing like that pasteurized, homogenized milk you get in the store, guys."

It's the flatearthers of nutrition, health, and ethics.

<💬>
Some raw milk enthusiasts are not only ignoring the recommendations of the FDA, CDC, and pathologists but are actively spinning these government warnings into a conspiracy theory. The LA Times recently published an article highlighting some of these raw milk enthusiasts who are:

Going to refer to my previous post on how the power of raw milk is... white.

Boing Boing · Raw milk lovers are spinning the government's H5N1 warnings into a conspiracy theoryIt’s become absolutely clear that H5N1 has been detected in raw milk in “very high concentrations.” Time for a new conspiracy theory!
