Notes:

Honestly, at the same time I believe all this might be true of Oat milk, I always wonder about ideological and ulterior motives someone with Jake Trans-esque platform has to do this, as if he's a big milk or big meat man or something...

For context, he has videos like "plant-made and lab-grown meat is a scam"

    I would bet money the carbon impact claims he makes in the video are a bunch of bullshit and the lady he used clips of is some kind of dairy/meat industry paid scientist. There have been tons of articles about the harmful methane from cattle and she tries to minimize it by equating it to wetlands naturally occurring methane emissions. Lmao. But I’m too lazy to go research the lady.

    Overall after watching this video and reading the comments here it just makes me so fucking frustrated that you just can never get straight information about anything that is actually true. We need a soviet ministry of health that doesn’t get lobbied or act as a revolving door with private industry to actually be able to tell people the actual truth about food healthiness. Ugh i hate living in capitalism, it fucking corrupts everything, even science. It just makes me ignore all of this shit and just eat whatever i want and pay attention to whether it makes me feel like shit or not. Fuck it we all die some day.

    And also the obsession with the self and health and having the perfect body and perfect health is all part of the narcissistic behavior that capitalism trains us to engage in obsessively because it helps them sell us products. (I think Naomi Klein’s new book doppelganger reflects on this a bit). I hate this world.
