Comment on USA | Bird flu detected in raw milk sold in California as fears rise of virus spreading

In Colorado, the big agricultural/ranching areas are the most reactionary. One cattle town, Greeley, even attempted to secede from the state over the barest COVID restrictions. Raw milk is a big culture war thing for them and the hippies who flocked to the most densely populated areas of the state. Luckily we live in the 21st century though and it’s illegal for a commercial dairy to sell unpasteurised milk.

So anyways the dairies are owned by reactionaries who love selling raw milk to other reactionaries. Since it’s legal to drink the raw milk of your family cow, the dairies circumvent food safety laws by selling a “share” of a “cow”. That entitles you to X amount of raw milk per week. The cow is one of hundreds in an industrial dairy being fed chicken shit. The first human case from this current epidemic was a prisoner being used as slave labour to bury all the chickens at an infected farm.

It’s so much filthier than any of the racist shit hogs said about Chinese wet markets. This is a wholly manmade horror perfectly within our comprehension purely being driven for profit. I hope it ends with crucifixions.
