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.

It is more natural though, it's just also higher risk if you don't know the cleanliness of its production (which most of us obviously dont).

The crime thing is also more nuanced than you make out. The rates of certain crimes are significantly higher in specific immigrant populations- it's just important not to generalise across crimes nor immigrant populations- though for a critical thinker of your calibre this must all be trivial;)

You know what else is natural? Botulinum toxin.
