@Mr_NutterButter He's an ultra-zionist, arguably moreso than most US presidents, and a country as insignificant as Argentina could probably get away with not being zionist.
He is doing a good job improving the economy and cutting government bloat, but he still gives off the whole "hello my fellow libertarians" vibe.
Peter Theil is a shitty technocrat LARPing as a libertarian to make himself look like one of the good guys. He has made his fortune off of government and military contracts, including mass surveillance tools for Israeli intelligence. James Corbett has made a series of articles documenting Peter Theil and his career, showing how he is no better than Bill Gates or Klaus Schwab:
People REALLY need to start calling out these controlled opposition technocrats like Peter Theil and Elon Musk. I'm tired of people falling for their traps.
@Alex@arcana I think butter (namely organic butter from grass-fed cows) and animal fats are superior to most seed oils, but it is generally agreed upon in alternative health that coconut oil blows both of those out of the water, but good luck finding restaurants that cook with coconut oil unless you live in a tropical area.
Regardless, the fact of the matter is that it is much easier to find organic, grass-fed beef and dairy products than it is to find organic peanuts, at least from my experience. Peanuts and soybeans are often genetically modified so they can be more resistant to pesticides.
>Whatever valid arguments people have against particular types of oils get drowned out by these stupid culture war arguments 99% of the time
Honestly, I didn't know many people who were talking about this shit outside of alternative health circles. A lot of them are conspiracy theorists, but honestly, before COVID and before Trump appointed RFK, most mainstream RWers didn't pay attention to this shit outside of the soy meme. Do you really think MAGAtards gave a damn when their idol is known for bringing McDonald's during board room meetings? From my experience, the alternative health community are mostly libertarians and non-culture war leftists. Just go to your local health food store to see what I'm talking about.
@Mr_NutterButter I still have a gut feeling that he is controlled opposition, given the people he has hanged out with. I'm still waiting for him to show his true colors.
@TheMadPirate@icedquinn I think there is a pretty good reason why so many people would rather use self-checkout lanes. People would rather interact with a machine than someone giving out fake smiles.
@meeper It's not just the corporate world. I've seen ordinary people who are sensitive to body language. Then again, those are the people who are extremely sensitive to you being slightly mean to them.
@TheMadPirate@icedquinn Some managers are pretty laid-back depending on the job. Customers are unpredictable and will try to search for a single flaw in their service quality in order to report it to the manager/corporate so they can get a free meal or a discounted item.
@TheMadPirate@icedquinn Society expects you to act nice to anyone who isn't a complete asshole or downright evil. That includes giving out body language that implies compassion and gratitude, so you are expected to fake body language sometimes. Anyone who has ever worked in fast food or retail can tell you this.
I really hate the whole concept of body language. It's just basically you unconsciously expressing yourself and even then, it doesn't paint an accurate picture of what you are truly thinking or feeling. Some people are oblivious to it while others are extremely sensitive to it.
When I was a kid, I got in trouble multiple times for "displaying inappropriate body language to teachers" and I never knew what I did wrong.
@icedquinn Okay RFK got one thing wrong. It's that the solution to seed oils isn't beef tallow. Coconut oil blows both seed oils and beef tallow out of the water.
