  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.

I'm gen z and the milk propaganda was everywhere lmao, what's this person talking about

I think one big difference is that many people now recognize it as propaganda, whereas I remember a time when that stuff was just taken as wisdom and the dairy industry seemed to be a part of the health industry (that was also assumed to be in it for society's good rather than profit). Losing that trust was pretty big.

I'm a young millennial and it was still going strong in the 00s, so I believe it. My family of 5 no joke went through 1.5-2 gallons PER DAY in ~2005
