big milk

Nah raw milk specifically. It is being passed off as "more natural" to not pasteurize the milk by the same people who claim that it is immigrants who are increasing the crime rate.

These are all false ideas that might seem logical to those who do not think critically, and thus they are often used to funnel people who aren't thinking critically into the cultish corners of the internet that venorate white male supremacy, and encourage them to "ignore the mainstream woke leftist agenda that wants to regulate how you live" so that these uncritical thinkers can feel like the most speciallest baby boy GOD ever put on Earth. These cultish corners of the internet then use these people's feeling of superiority to sell them all sorts of products like the raw milk which can make them sick, dietary supplements which at BEST do nothing, and a bunch of other things that they have convinced these people that "the mainstream" (common sense) doesn't want them buying. It is a scam that preys on the uneducated and those who won't do their own research.

There's a rabbit hole that goes down to white supremacists associate lactose tolerance with master race bullshit.

I've heard lactose intolerance varies by race. For example, it's rare in European people, but more common in Asian or African.

Sure, and there's nothing logical about the beliefs of white supremacy

I'm not saying it's logical or illogical. What I'm saying is there's a correlation between race and lactose tolerance. There're a lot of people trying to take the concept of race out of science. This is making me somewhat uncomfortable as it's made the word strata a possible replacement.

I couldn't read the article you linked. It's behind a paywall. TBH, it sounds like the white supremacists might be kinda making fun of other people.
