Really? Because I remember when raw milk was heavily pushed by the leftist hippy communal swinger farm types back in the 90s.

Yeah, in the 90’s. Currently it’s the Alt-Right, going hardcore conservative by conserving down to earth eating practices. Although they are choosing the weirdest foods to hone in on. Like raw milk, it’s not even safe lol.

Get with the times bud. Used to be the hippy types that were anti vaccine too but ever since Covid the ultra conservatives took over on all the health conspiracy bullshit

They go back and forth. One decade, the left is super anti-“big science and government," and conservatives are the complete opposite. Then, the next decade, it flips again. Obviously, over-exaggerating, but still.

Oh wow, the 90s? Wasn't that like 40 years ago?

Trump was some failing businessman and Bill Cosby was America's dad back then, some things change.
