Milk new symbol of hate?
Daily 49'er ^ | March 13, 2017 | Samantha Diaz

When you think of milk, what first comes to your mind? If you’re a millennial, you probably think of strong bones, Got Milk? commercials, or maybe eating your favorite cereal while watching cartoons on a Saturday morning.

What about racism? White nationalism? If you’re having trouble finding the connection between these institutions and milk, you’re not alone. You, along with the rest of the nation, have been so accustomed to hearing the benefits of milk that you probably didn’t even realize the subtle racism hidden in our health facts.

It may not surprise you that the United States was founded on racism. That every institution we uphold has racist roots that are sometimes difficult to catch and even harder to fight against. This phenomenon affects our voter ID laws, state testing and, yes, even our federal dietary guidelines. But how can our health guidelines, a system meant to be built upon scientific fact alone, have racist messages? Where there is a deep-rooted tradition to suppress an entire race’s existence, there’s a way.

The federal endorsement of milk in American diets contributes to the problem by uncritically pushing people to drink milk, despite the potential detriment it has on non-white people’s health.

I admit, when I am at a restaurant and being waited on by a black waiter who asks me if I want white or chocolate milk, I always worry what the right answer is.

You drink milk, therefore: RACISM

I believe the underpants gnomes have a more viable model.

Also, I’d never thought I’d see someone REE on Free Republic.

Truly the best timeline.

The racism of milk was easy to discover because it's, you know, white. But there are other foods like cauliflower that should be carefully examined.
Brussels sprouts are definitely racist and need to be banished from the dietary guidelines immediately...for the children.

In the Old Testament there are a number of curses listed warning what would happen to the people of God when they lost their way; one of those is widespread insanity. I challenge anyone to rationally deny that this generation has gone crazy lately.

Then they should never visit or live in the Netherlands. It’s the country of dairy products. We LOVE our dairy!!

I had my doubts, but when Wisconsin went for Trump I knew it had to be Nazis.

If they really want to put the SJW world into a tailspin, declare a Starbucks latte racist.

They have already gotten rid of the "Flat White" so they would probably do it.

No, I don't drink Starbucks but there is one in the mega-lo-mart where I shop.

Haven’t drank milk in decades. Even eat breakfast cereal dry. Can’t digest it and hate the taste.

This just leaves more milk for those that can hack it.

I’d put this brainwashed idiot up against ‘most any other fool we’ve ever seen. She could hold her own against the Congresscritter who thought that we could capsize Guam, against Sheila Jackson Lee (and that’s saying something!), against Maxine Imbecile Waters, and against a bucket of mud. THIS moron is the culmination of so many years of education-—obviously wasted-—from which someone of even average intelligence could have benefitted all the more. It’s a tragedy.

I remember when I was in Viet Nam, I had the biggest milk craving. One of the unknown crimes of that war was when me and some members of the 3/4 Cav robbed the Generals Mess Freezer Truck.

The goodies, Lobster, Ice Cream, and Steak, the driver didn't care and we weren't greedy.

I was NCO IC of the convoy never heard any thing about it, the Ice Cream was out standing.

One way to divert their attention is to have them research why brown cows eat green grass and produce white milk.

Notiing this week’s grocery ad at Fred Meyer’s, one-half gallon of chocolate milk is now more than double the cost of one-half gallon of white milk. Last week and for the past year, they were the same price.

Please demand organic milk from a Red Holstein or a Brown Swiss cow.

The alt-right actually does claim milk as a White Power symbol.
