    All these evidences keep pointing to preservatives dissolved in specific fats. Makes sense it’s passing through gut lining and pickling our brains on a mass scale.

    We need to move away from Generally Recognized as Safe and towards whitelisting substances that can be put in food without slowly poisoning society.

    And I mean shit like adding titanium dust to cornflakes to make them appear more white. We’ve wrapped all the way around to adulteration of food. The FDA, the USDA, the Department of Agriculture, and the EPA need massive revamps and restructuring.

    Too much corporate capture. Not enough consumer advocacy.

      Yes, and this is part of the reason why I think we should have Medicare4All available to everyone - to guarantee oyr government agencies are working diligently for the public health’s best interest. It’s kinda hard to sue for cancer, Erin Brokovich style, if you never get diagnosed with cancer in the first place because you couldn’t afford to see a doctor, get tested, or get treatment. And I’m almost certain this is a major reason corporations don’t want us to have it, along with it forcing us to work and/or join the military for healthcare. They don’t want more class actions.

      And it’s bullshit because the money from those class actions isn’t even enough for the medical side. But it should pay for all the medical stuff, AND THEN SOME, for shortening our lifespans and pain and suffering
