    Yes! And thank you for actually reading it and not just disregarding it because it’s happening under Trump admin or RFK Jr. as most of Lemmy has been doing lately.

    Lemmy needs to remember that liberals hate ultraprocessed foods too. Just because republicans are hating it and working on it, doesn’t mean Lemmy needs to suddenly like ultraprocessed crap!

    It’s bad, regardless of administration, guys.

      the man is insane and dangerous and will likely be responsible for mass death due to negligence, but the stopped clock rule still applies.

      very few people of good conscience (and that includes a ton of lemmy users) will tear down objectively good policy. its the other, absolute batshit insanity that is objectionable.

        Honestly as a parent with a kid that has life threatening food allergies I can’t beleive a crazy man is actually making our lives easier…

        …at least until we all die of a easily cured disease he kills funding for.

          why, yes. yes I did.

          in fact I have read many of the articles you have posted because they are reasonable touchpoints for discussion. I would not have commented on your post without reading TFA.

          I have also upvoted quite a few of your posts because you post across many instances and that is one of the best things anyone can do for the fediverse - so thanks for that.

            Fair points and thank you. I apologize if my comment seemed abrupt.

            Regarding the article, I actually think this particular FDA rule change is a good thing.

              no worries.

              its very prelim, but yes, agreed. thoughtfully implemented this could be a very good thing. right now the american people need a win - any win. and, if this proves to be one, I will absolutely give due credit.

              now, can you get on your super secret conservative hotline and pretty please ask rfk jr to restart all the vaccine planning meetings for next flu season?

                Meh, to be honest, I’m actually Libertarian. Republicans sorta hate us too, just not as much as they hate conservatives. So they wouldn’t take my call either. Sorry. lol

      Agreed, I saw this posted in two conservative subs as well and one was negative while the other was still at one. I’m sorry if the bad guy is the one that wants this but this is a positive change. Especially with all the deregulation going on. I guess such a disjointed administration can’t help but fuck up rightly occasionally.
