This is some truly 1984 double speak bullshit

Step 1 prevent agency from doing it's job

Step 2 shriek about how agency does nothing and must be dismantled

Fuck these guys, what time is the white house raid?

So, in other words, we will no longer be able to trust the USDA to safeguard our food supply and companies will be able to bastardize any and all foodstuffs without any kind of oversight whatsoever.

You can also forget about exporting those.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah, the EU is already pretty wary of US agriculture goods. This is going to absolutely murder the farming export business in the US.

To be fair though the Democrats tried to stop dumb shitheads from pushing horse paste on Twitter during a pandemic, so no one's blameless in the censorship game.

(Please don't make me reply clarifying the intent of this statement.)

Is that fair? One follows scientific consensus and the other defies it.

Free speech still has limits and distributing false medical information should be restricted.

Genuine question because you absolutelyalready took the time out of your day to clarify the intent with your parenthetical at the end there: is this an ego thing? Like what is it about tone indicators like "/s" that you hate so deeply that you feel the need to go out of your way to create a bespoke, alternate tone indicator which was 10x longer and 100x whiny-er? Where did these feelings come from? Clearly you understand that they're needed, so why do you persist in this nonsense?

I don't know why because I've never done it before today, but as I was about to post that I imagined someone taking it seriously and I was not in the mood to deal with that today so I cut it off proactively. And I've never liked /s.

Where was this taken? Wondering who owns those photos.
