I kinda get risking a tummy ache for raw milk if that’s your thing. I don’t get risking being patient zero in a bird flu pandemic.
I think people have already proven that they rather kill their families and neighbours than experience a mild inconvenience.
The inconvenience in question here is not being able to do something unimaginably stupid.
It's not even an inconvenience. Raw milk is harder to get, more expensive, and doesn't keep as long. And it's the sort of thing you have to actively look for to find it.
The thing I can't figure out is where these dumb opinions and attitudes are coming from and why is it getting worse? I can't go on social media without coming across something insanely stupid within a few minutes (like, I just saw a pro-raw milk post this morning on Facebook). But it's not just online - I'm seeing more and more "normal" people I know just adopt patently false ideas.
Like, what's happening to our society that people are just not using critical thinking anymore?
I can only make assumptions. But if I would be a sociopath and bored out of my mind. I think making up this kind of shit, fabricating and pushing bullshit just to see what sticks could be something that seems like fun?
Yeah, I'd be all for them doing it if we weren't talking about an infectious disease.
It's because they think it's a fake conspiracy so they're proving "them" wrong. And toxic masculinity.
Same reason these stupid fucks had covid parties. "I ain't afraid of no cold. Ya'll are fucking cowards!"
Idiocracy explains this mentality better than I.
