PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

SHADOW BANNING

  • This is not a good thing.
  • Vinnie believes he and others like him have been the subject of shadow banning on social media.
  • Shadow banning is bad for democracy and doesn't help depolarization of this country.
  • When folks got along and could be respectful, things were better.

HEALTH SHOULDN'T BE POLITICAL

  • Health has been politicized.
  • This shouldn't be the case.
  • Meat was demonized, and those who ate meat didn't care for the environment.
  • But the science doesn't support these positions.
  • Politicizing it means that we don't really hear or engage with the science.
  • We see this in things like meatless Mondays and vegan Fridays. 
    • Encouraging children to go vegan while the science shows that this is not the way to eat for healthy growth and development isn't right.
    • And for many children, school is where they get their biggest meals.
    • Studies have shown that children who eat meat do better.
  • In Belgium, you can go to jail for feeding your child a vegan diet because it is not good for them. 
    • There, the science talks.
  • Nina wrote a great op-ed on this. Check it out here: https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-the-real-risks-of-vegan-fridays-20220211-uvx5kccnkzfwpa6vr7kilfx52m-story.html
  • You can also do your own experiment with your health. What makes you feel good? What helps you get healthier?
