“Milk choice”. It’s now a rallying point.
What, she thinks it’s the flavoring that has the nutritional value? Oh, my mistake; she thinks that banning flavored milk means that all milk is being replaced with “vegan juice”. This is rich, pretending to care about the National School Lunch Program.
Jesus Christ, the Qliban are stupid as Hell!
“The federal government has demonized milk, resulting in a lost generation of milk drinkers, despite the clear nutritional benefits,” said Chairman of the House Committee on Agriculture GT Thompson.
That’s actually an excellent point, assuming that by “demonized milk” he must mean “failed to regulate aggressive corporate advertising of soda and energy drinks to minors”.
I just googled the nutritional value of Silk® Original Soymilk:

It seems to me the “vegan juice” is a bit more nutritious than the milk.
Another thing: I thought the mean old magaters did not want those on federal assistance to be getting things like chocolate milk instead of regular ol’ milk. Hmmmmm.
Yup. Sort of like the no flour tortillas, white bread or refried beans. No American Cheese either. So a good grilled cheese is right out. It’s all about punishment for being poor.
I think that “Woke Artifical Intelligence ChatBot refuses to say n***** even if it’s the only way to save the world from nuclear event that kills millions.” definitely deserves a place on the list.
Next, I expect Congress to enact legislation requiring ChatGPT to say n***** if the fate of humanity depends on it. It doesn’t get more performative than that.
To paraphrase what I said in the SRIotD thread, this is either the worst episode of 24 or the best episode of Black Mirror.

ChatGPT is probably wondering about all these accounts which obviously don’t pass the Turing…
Jesus, the thought of these people getting mad at evolutionary Clippy is funny as fuck.
Woke ChatGPT is inserting a little bit of CRT in every paper it writes for our children! When is Gym Jordan and the House going to get to the bottom of this?
It’s amazing, isn’t it, how a group that is clearly at the bottom cannot reach the bottom.
Move over, Jesus Chicken…
The Breaded Cauliflower Sandwich will bring them down.
Conservatives, you idiots, that sandwich and gay marriage have something in common: If you don’t want one, you don’t have to have one.
Sorta the same situation as abortion, but that doesn’t prevent them from freaking right out about it.
Don’t these people get tired of being outraged all the time? It must be exhausting.

The right is losing their minds over Lift Every Voice and Sing - nicknamed the “Black National Anthem” that was sung at the Super Bowl.
Not quite. IMO they find it exhilarating.
The only problem for them (and even more for their enablers) is that like with any repeated stimulus, the human mind accommodates to it and over time it will take a bigger hit to achieve the same “high”.
The freakouts must keep getting wackier to deliver the same exhilaration to an ever-more jaded audience of ever-freakier freaks.
I would suggest it is time for these ladies and gentlemen to turn to illicit drugs; there is a similar stimulus and reduction in that stimulus - but with less harm to society in general.
I hear fentanyl is freely available, to the point of being handed out like candy. According to these folk, anyway.
Don’t you have to wait for Halloween to score all that free fentanyl? Anyone have a child I can borrow? I’m a bit old to be out trick-or-treating.
