Drinking raw milk is the dumbest idea ever, imo, and giving it to kids is heinous. Right up there with refusing to get vaxxed/not vaxxing your kids.

It's horrifying to me that so many people seem to be saying, "Fuck science! Let's go back to the 'good old days' when men were men, and making it to the age of 5 without being killed by a dread disease was, well, a lot less common than it has become since we figured out how to sanitize milk and prevent those diseases with vaccines! Who needs all that protection! Bring on the germs!"
