Got racism? You won’t believe what one college student thinks about milk

I never thought I’d hear that milk is racist, but then again, I never thought anyone would be stupid enough to believe it. But here we are in America, 2017.

A California State University-Long Beach student and staff writer for its paper, The Daily 49er, penned a wild piece about how milk is the “new symbol of hate.” Samantha Diaz feels that like all U.S. Institutions, there are “racist roots” in “our federal dietary guideline.”

Diaz desperately tries to make the connections clear:

Our current federal dietary guidelines urge people to drink three cups of milk a day, according to the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The main health benefit of milk is to guard against osteoporosis, a disease that weakens your bones — hence the “stronger bones” rhetoric. While this is a very practical health benefit, osteoporosis affects Africans at a significantly lower rate than it does most Americans, according to an article on Mother Jones…

The Mother Jones article states that not only is milk non-beneficial to Africans, but following the guidelines may actually be detrimental to their health. There is a strong correlation to calcium consumption and an increased risk of prostate cancer, unproportionally affecting African men. Furthermore, both black children and adults generally secrete less calcium on a daily basis than white people, making them less dependent upon milk.

Remember that this is the dietary guidelines for Americans. I want to emphasize that last word. These guidelines are for Americans. This means they should reflect the health needs of the ethnicities that make up America which, news flash, isn’t just white people. And since the African American community in the U.S. is continuously rising, it seems only logical to acknowledge that while something may be beneficial for one group of people, that may not be the case for another.

This insanity speaks for itself, but Diaz also pointed to video “proof” from actor Shia LeBeouf’s weird anti-Trump “art” protest, “He Will Not Divide Us.” A camera set up at a New York museum captured the bizarre behavior of several middle-aged white men, Diaz believes to be neo-Nazis, dancing around without their shirts, drinking milk and shouting about “racism” and the “vegan agenda.” With this and Mother Jones as her proof-text, we can bet she’s not firing on all cylinders.

And yet, she breathlessly writes, “Until we recognize the racist roots in our own systems of government and fight to remove them, we are all in part responsible for the white, creamy form of racism currently taking hold in our country.”

There aren’t enough face-palms in the world to help me understand the mentality of this young girl.

God help America and our education system.
