Milk is Now Racist! Didn’t You Know?!

You know the old saying, “Milk does a body good?” Well, it does, and you’re a racist.

Samantha Diaz, a writer for California State University-Long Beach’s (CSULB) newspaper “D49er,” wrote an article this past Monday asking the question, “Milk, new symbol of hate?”

In case you’re not familiar with Diaz’s article/argument, here you go:

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.

Diaz references a study that states that 75 percent of African-Americans are lactose intolerant. Therefore, touting the health benefits of milk ignores non-white people, and is intrinsically racist.

“It may not surprise you that the United States was founded on racism,” Diaz added, by way of explanation. “That every institution we uphold has racist roots that are sometimes difficult to catch and even harder to fight against.”

Diaz goes on to argue that white nationalists and neo-nazis are using milk as a form of white supremacy.

Really? Seriously? What’s next? Elmer’s glue and plain yogurt are racist, too, right? Why don’t we just classify anything that has the color “white” in it or on it as “racist,” while we’re at it. And what about chocolate milk? That’s not white. Although, it very well could be white milk masquerading as chocolate milk, and that’s cultural appropriation. Just another form of closet racism — somehow.

Apparently, this all stems from internet trolls finding a Mother Jones article, which Diaz provides no source for (here, Samantha, I’ll do your job as a journalist for you), which asks another question, “Are the U.S. Dietary Guidelines on Milk Racist?”

No! No, they’re not! The crazy portion of the ever-growing liberal population have been trying to prove that white people are racist for so long that they’ve jumped the shark and become the predominant purveyors of racism themselves.

But Diaz takes the Mother Jones article as gospel — particularly the excerpt stating that “milk is non-beneficial to Africans.”

Here’s another little nugget of dumb from Diaz:

Remember that this is the dietary guidelines for Americans. I want to emphasize that last word. These guidelines are for Americans. This means they should reflect the health needs of the ethnicities that make up America which, news flash, isn’t just white people.

Oh, the life of the Social Justice Warrior is so hard, having to alert for every smidgen of politically incorrect language, action or heaven forefend, a impious thought that violates the Progressive dogma.

 

There must be no rest for those securing the ramparts of citizen thought control. The State must be preserved.

Daily Insanity

As usual, give the Progressives/Liberals a modicum of space and they’ll fill it up with crap that has no bearing on the reality of current important events.

Over 2,000 People Sign Petition To Retain “Stallions” As A Mascot

A few days ago, I wrote about how a high school in Kentucky had its mascot changed from “Stallions” to “TBD” after a mere 200 people signed a petition claiming that “Stallions” was an offensive, sexist pick. Now, more than ten times that number have signed an rebuttal petition asking the district to keep “Stallions” as the mascot for Frederick Douglass High School in Lexington. [snip]

It’s a weird world when two high school freshmen (or should I say “first years“?) have more common sense than fully-grown adults. A school doesn’t choose a mascot to marginalize or offend part of the student body, and to suggest it does is ludicrous. There’s nothing wrong with “Stallions” as a mascot, especially for a school in Kentucky that’s literally being built on a farm where stallions were raised. Everybody who is upset over this needs to take a massive chill pill.

Given that the district was so willing to submit to the demands of a mere 200 people, I wonder what they’ll have to say about 2,000 people telling them that they’re out of their minds.

What a major circle jerk. These clowns have nothing better to do than cause a disturbance. Why not just name the female variations of the sports teams, ‘The Mares”.

Deputy: Man stole work tools, then accidentally called boss

Authorities say a man stole tools from his workplace at an auto repair shop and then accidentally called his boss as he tried to sell them.
Citing an arrest report, the Times West Virginian (http://bit.ly/2hWxGir ) says the owner of the repair shop in the community of Millersville told deputies that one of his employees recently called him about tools he was selling. The owner said the employee immediately hung up after he realized who he had called.

Deputies say they recovered the stolen tools after they obtained a warrant to search the vehicle and home of the worker, identified as 37-year-old Shawn Nelson Furner of Fairmont. [snip]

Not too swift in the criminal department, wonder how he was doing when actually working. Something says there’s a deficit in that department too.

NYC culinary staple China Fun shutters, blaming over-regulation

For 25 years, China Fun was renowned for its peerless soup dumplings and piquant General Tso’s chicken.

What left a bad taste in the mouths of its owners and loyal patrons was the restaurant’s sudden Jan. 3 closing, blamed by management on suffocating government demands.

“The climate for small businesses like ours in New York have become such that it’s difficult to justify taking risks and running — nevermind starting — a legitimate mom-and-pop business,” read a letter posted by the owners in the restaurant’s front door. [snip]

Albert Wu, whose parents Dorothea and Felix owned the eatery, said the endless paperwork and constant regulation that forced the shutdown accumulated over the years.

“When we started out in 1991, the lunch special was $4 a plate,” he recalled. “Now it’s $10, $12. The cost of doing business is just too onerous.”

Wu cited one regulation where the restaurant was required to provide an on-site break room for workers despite its limited space. And he blamed the amount of paperwork now required — an increasingly difficult task for a non-chain businesses.

“In a one-restaurant operation like ours, you’re spending more time on paperwork than you are trying to run your business,” he griped. [snip]

The only small places left to eat in Communist run cities will be places like the Government approved “Socialist Peoples Noodle House” or “The Organic Tofu Vegan Diner”.

“Egging” her on

There wasn’t enough clatter and clash going on at the Spartanburg Denny’s restaurant so a pair of employees there enlivened up the store by fighting over a hard boiled egg.

Cops Called To Break Up Fight Between Denny’s Workers Over A Hard-Boiled Egg

An argument between two Denny’s workers “over a hard boiled egg” was broken up yesterday by  a South Carolina cop, according to a police report.

In response to a 911 call about a “disturbance between employees,” a sheriff’s deputy arrived at the eatery in Spartanburg around 10:30 PM.

The cop learned that workers Nancy Michelle Kirkpatrick, 56, and Quanisha Dre’Shawn Fenn, 21, had “got into an argument over a hard boiled egg.” During the squabble, Fenn said, Kirkpatrick called her a “bitch.” “After that,” a cop reported, “Ms. Fenn called her mother.”

Fenn’s mother, Toska Marie Lightner, 47, subsequently arrived at the Denny’s and began arguing with Fitzpatrick. During the squabble, Lightner threw a tape dispenser at Fitzpatrick (who was not struck by the item).

Kirkpatrick declined to press an assault charge against Lightner.

The police report does not further detail why two adults were arguing over a hard-boiled egg.

Wonder what the argument was about?
Was it over whose turn it was to try to hatch it?
