Many Bitcoiners eat loads of fatty red meat because they think it makes them stronger, healthier, and even more masculine. The reality is, it leads to clogged arteries and erectile dysfunction, among many other well-documented health issues—there's nothing masculine about that.

Ultimately, the only knowledge is self-knowledge. I can't make anyone do anything—any more than all this carnivore fad diet talk can make me do anything. All I can do is share my perspective, backed by decades of modern research, thousands of years of lived results, and today's world-class vegan athletes and peak performers.

Freedom of speech and reclaiming our attention/time/life from big tech is a thread that connects people who use Nostr, so it was time to start speaking more about it.

And yes, good on you—don't let perfect be the enemy of good. For example, I enjoy buttermilk, but I don't buy it because of the way cows are treated in factory farms.

'Grass-fed' is just a label, like 'organic'—with loose regulations that are easy to game. There's a stark difference between a Hindu cow, or Bessie being milked on the farm and well-cared for, and a mother who has had her babies stolen from her, lives in inhumane conditions, is shown no love, is an object to be used, and is pumped with antibiotics and other medicines just to keep her alive until she can't produce anymore.

And then they're thrown away like garbage—sent to slaughter at just 4-5 years old when they should live to 20, their bodies so broken and worn they're only good for cheap hamburger meat and pet food. That's the reality behind every glass of milk from factory farms.
