The intrinsic intolerance hidden just beneath the veneer of an accepting society drives us straight to the bottom and splits us in two, whether it be sexuality, race, or lactose. Whoever needs to hear it, it’s okay to be gay, black, or a milk drinker.
Folks really need to normalize casually drinking milk the same way people drink CO2-infused sugar water. Milk is delicious and a great base source of nutrients.
Honestly, this reminds me of the "facebook crisis": it's forbidden to show a nipple publicly on facebook, but they accept pictures of guns. Really shows you their values and ideals.
One time I was working a late shift in winter and I just needed something warm. I heated up some water and just poured it into my coffee cup. My co-worker looked at me like I was crazy and told me I was a "weird cat" which in itself is kind of ironic. Then he proceeds to fill his coffee mug with diet dr pepper and walk out into a blizzard like it was nothing.
