If you had trusted the settled science of the day, here is how it would have gone.
1890s: you dose the baby with Bayer's new cough syrup, the non-addictive alternative to morphine, marketed for children. It was heroin. They named it after the German for heroic.
1900s: you rub calomel teething powder on your infant's gums. It is a mercury compound, and it leaves a generation with pink disease. Swollen, peeling hands and feet, screaming for months, and some of them died.
1910s: you cook in Crisco, launched by a soap and candle company, because cottonseed oil is modern and lard is what your mother used. The process that made it solid produced trans fat, banned outright a century later.
1920s: you drink Radithor, certified radioactive water, on prescription. Eben Byers took fourteen hundred bottles for his vitality. His jaw was removed in pieces and he was buried in a lead coffin.
1930s: a chemist dissolves a new sulfa drug in diethylene glycol, which is antifreeze. It kills 107 people, mostly children, and only then does America give the FDA power to demand safety testing.
1940s: your doctor lights a Camel in the surgery. More doctors smoke them than any other brand, and the advert runs in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which sold him the page.
1950s: DDT is sprayed over your kitchen, your garden and your children at school. The man who found its insecticidal properties has already been given a Nobel Prize.
1960s: your wife takes thalidomide for morning sickness because it is remarkably safe. More than ten thousand children are born with missing and shortened limbs.
1970s: the country puts down the butter and picks up the margarine, on the instruction of the American Heart Association. The fat everybody switched to was banned in 2015 as unsafe at any level.
1980s: the fat comes out of everything and sugar goes back in to make it edible. Obesity begins a climb it has never come off.
1990s: your father is prescribed OxyContin, because fewer than one per cent get addicted. The company later pleads guilty to criminal misbranding, and the overdose count runs into hundreds of thousands.
2000s: you take Vioxx for your knee. It is pulled in 2004, and the FDA's own safety officer estimates tens of thousands of excess heart attacks.
Not one of those was fringe. Every one had a professional body, a literature and a man in a white coat standing behind it.
Nobody who followed that advice was stupid. They were obedient, to the most qualified people available.
Settled is a word about money. It means the questions stopped being funded, so they stopped being asked.
So which of today's instructions will your grandchildren read out in disbelief.
The oil washed in hexane and built into every cell you own. The statin that blocks the pathway making your hormones, to prevent one heart attack per hundred people. The injection where a third of the loss is muscle. The infant formula built out of vegetable oil.
All settled. None of it funded to be otherwise.
💥EXPLOSIVE: The Bill Gates Case: The Narrative on Trial. Amsterdam Court Of Appeal. The Netherlands. March 2026💥
If you want to truly understand what is unfolding in the case against Bill Gates, Albert Bourla (CEO of Pfizer) and Mark Rutte (former Dutch PM) along with 15 other defendants - watch this!
In that courtroom, lawyer Peter Stassen didn't just speak; he delivered a calculated, scorched-earth dismantling of the defendants. What he put on the record is absolute fire. You have to watch it for yourself.
This case is real. It is happening. Please take the time to watch the full update, and share it. While the mainstream media remains predictably silent, we are the ones breaking the blackout. We are the ones ensuring the world knows exactly what was hidden.
History isn't just being written; it's being corrected. Never give up on the truth. This is our moment. Watch. Share. Be the witness history requires.
@its_Lexieroy Not sure how I feel about that. I really like Rand Paul. Congress is full of liars grifters and thieves pandering to NGOs. That’s why they can’t do anything meaning for those who they pretend to represent.
Could the United States feed the United States without glyphosate?
Short answer: obviously yes
The main problem with our food system is that it’s being run out of Washington.
That’s why we have vast swaths of farmland doing stupid things that make no sense except to bureaucrats in D.C. — maxing out soybean exports, subsidizing domestic sugar production, growing the majority of corn for ethanol (something that’s bad for cars but good for the egos of D.C. politicos), etc.
We got to this point through the usual way: the cost of business ia slowly driven up, via regulations & the rest of it, until most farmers can only afford to sell out to Tyson, etc. Then lobbyists convince lawmakers monocropping & pesticides are the only way to affordably feed Americans, and laws are enacted exempting manufacturers from liability, only quickening these trends.
In the past 8 years, we’ve lost up to 170,000 farms — 1 in 15. Meanwhile, only 10 percent of U.S. corn feeds humans; the rest feeds animals or cars. On the other side of the equation, 85 percent of farmers have to work off-farm. Yet 80 percent of the Farm Bill is SNAP. It’s like a self perpetuating cyclone of bad decision making & worse consequences.
As long as things are being run out of bureaucracies, we could at least do so through the prism of enabling local communities to feed local communities.
Easy layups:
— SNAP benefits double for whole foods, and/or can only be redeemed for foods with less than ~5 ingredients.
— Farmers get low-interest loans
— No more subsidies for monocropping
— USDA lets farmers slaughter their own meat
— Monsanto-style liability indemnity is removed so everyone’s competing on a level playing field
People here probably already know about Joel Salatin and his Virginia-based regenerative/permaculture farm, Polyface, as it appeared Michael Pollen’s popular documentary, The Onnivore’s Dilemma.
Salatin & other regenerative farmers have written dozens of books showing how farms that replicate patterns we find in nature — herbivores graze before chickens scavenge, before the land transitions from pasture to agriculture te animals again, all of which increases the fertility of the land year after year.
Salatin: “Plants and animals should be provided a habitat that allows them to express their physiological distinctiveness. Respecting and honouring the pigness of the pig is a foundation for societal health."
Practicing farming as God intended wouldn’t only be good for the planet, but could also expand supply.
Market summaries report that diversified regenerative farms can match or exceed conventional yields and even increase total productivity over time — with one dataset claiming regenerative systems can yield ~78% more food per acre total calories when considering diversified outputs, not just one crop.
Polyface Farm, at just ~500 acres, supplies thousands of local families and dozens of restaurants — prioritizing multiple outputs per acre (meat, eggs, vegetables, grass-fed products) instead of a single commodity yield.
And studies have found nearly 30 million acres of U.S. cropland that have been abandoned since the 1980s.
@RepBillFoster Lies. Medical research doesn’t cure anything. It never has. Name one disease that they have cured. They create patentable drugs that treat symptoms and cause side effects. End of conversation. Prove me wrong. Show me????
@TrumpsHurricane Country is not perfect. Trump has been a great disappointment but the embarrassment that I feel started long before Trumps first term and peaked with Biden.
@HustleBitch_ I use AI to assist me with everything. Makes alot of mistakes unapologetically. Very bad at running comps. Chooses houses that not only are not correct but at times that don’t exist. Good at reading local codes but really bad at things that are open to interpretation.
Melanie Phillips delivers a chilling diagnosis of the West's intellectual crisis: Ideology has replaced knowledge, and reason itself is under siege.
Key points from her 4:37 clip:
- Modern orthodoxies (multiculturalism, lifestyle equivalence, etc.) are treated as absolute moral goods.
- Challenge them → you're not just wrong; you're evil, standing against human/planetary betterment.
- Dissent must be silenced: no platform, no debate, no hearing.
- Evidence contradicting the ideology is dismissed as lies or "not facts."
- Universities—once crucibles of reason—are now engines destroying it, while claiming moral superiority.
- Result: Civil discourse dies. Replaced by insult weaponized to shut people down.
This isn't just about politics—it's the erosion of objective truth, evidence-based reasoning, and the ability to disagree without demonization.
We're witnessing the destruction of reason itself.
4:37 clip laying bare how ideology has become inimical to rationality 👇
When ideology trumps evidence and disagreement becomes "evil," what survives of open society?
Where do you see this dynamic strongest right now—in academia, media, politics, or everyday life?
