The bill passes, soy milk rebrands itself as doujiang - a traditional nutritious drink from China, its popularity explodes, the dairy reign of terror ends
This proposal is blatantly antisemitic, effectively genociding the IOF corpse milking squad by banning their name. Fetterman is worse than Hitler, almost as bad as Corbyn.
CALLING LIQUID FROM PLANTS "MILK" IS NOT A NEW CONCEPT YOU FUCKING MORON AND PEOPLE AREN'T BUYING PLANT MILK BECAUSE THEY THINK IT'LL TASTE LIKE COWS MILK IN FACT MOST PEOPLE BUY IT SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME QUALITIES AS COWS MILK YOU IDIOT YOU FUCKING IMBECILE YOU ABSOLUT DOOFUS I AM BEGGING YOU TO GO LOOK INTO THIS SHIT JUST ONCE BEFORE YOU SPOUT SOMETHING THIS DUMB. STOP CONTROLLING MY LANGUAGE
I don't know a lot about the english "milk"-word but I do know a bit about its germanic root and at least there "milk" might even first have referred to liquid from plants, and THEN we transferred it to also entail that from animals. Seens like there is a case for that in english, since the usage in the 1200's meant "Milk might even first have referred to liquid from plants, and THEN we transferred it to also entail that from animals."
And we know "soy milk" has been a thing since the 1880's. AHHHHH
This is so fucking stupid. Yeah, people are just too dumb to understand that soy milk and almond milk contain no dairy. Are you gonna rename peanut butter? There's no more pressing issue than renaming shit. These people need to be hit in the head.
I always thought it was weird that lefties got behind this guy when I remember him years back on the Colbert show bragging about the public-private partnerships he had pulled off. Like it was good he had helped his town and all, but it wasn't in anyway Left.
Reading "Dairy Pride" I was very shortly thinking about trans-cows and rainbows and lqbtmoo and so on.... And then came to think that just too many people will not think this is funny, so i wont go into details.
Example number 259 of capitalists betraying their own free market ideas when it isn't self-serving
Also, CHUDs like to call us "elitist" but here they are thinking that the average person is too stupid to know that almond milk is not dairy milk, let alone read the carton.
Pretty sure the word cheez was invented for just such an occasion, companies would just lean into 90s x-treme style marketing as an excuse to misspell things in a very legally convenient way
I mean the Chinese invented soy milk and we mostly call it "豆浆" which more accurately translate to "soybean starch" and we consume way more of it than yanks.
Forcing yanks to learn Chinese to own the libs is a good bit.
