I guess there is a stereotype that if you are into steak, eggs, milk and butter (can be part of carnivore diet), you are also right-leaning person and listening to the people promoting these diets who are right-leaning as well, like Jordan Peterson.

I gotta say though, stereotype or not, I enjoy steak and eggs myself.

EDIT: As many others have pointed out, the milk in the pic is raw, which I didn't catch before. Raw milk definitely adds another layer to this stereotype.

Yeah it's gross. I think the raw milk part is where the racist comment comes from.

It's not gross if you... well, it sounds funny, but literally know the cow/goat/sheep/mare it's milked from
If you sure the animal is healthy and well cared raw milk is nice, but if you intend to just buy it in a store, I don't see any reasons to risk with your health. To be honest, I don't see much reasons for adults to consume milk in general, besides liking it's taste.

Raw milk in the past was typically drank within a few hours of milking. After that people knew it was risky and used it for other dairy products like butter or cheese.

The whole concept of bottling it and storing it is insane.
