@wdlindsy Irradiated food would be safer but we have a combined superstition about radiation and NIMBY problems building the infrastructure here in the US.

We can't replace normal food safety with *nothing* but that's clearly the direction we're headed.

@wdlindsy Paywalled. Doesn't seem to be available on Archive. Thanks for the excerpts at least.

@wdlindsy The food side of the FDA is already underfunded and broken. I shudder to think how much worse it’s going to get.

@Nonya_Bidniss Webpage Archive is how I read it, actually. This link should take you to the article at that site:

archive.ph

If that doesn't work, then try going to this link and entering the url for the article: https://archive.ph

What unites them all—and what legitimizes them in the eyes of this next administration—is a lasting rage over COVID."

"In addition to eroding our democracy and constitutional norms, the incoming Trump Administration presents one of the greatest modern threats to the safety, health, and well-being of American families.

A plurality of American voters decided they were fine with possibly dying just to temporarily feel great again."

@Nonya_Bidniss You've taught me something, that there are two separate urls for that site. I hadn't known of the .is one.
