Drag thinks oat milk is milk. Drag isn’t convinced that cow’s milk is real milk, though. Milk comes from a plant, drag isn’t sure something from an animal’s boob counts. Chemically it’s too different from milk to call it the same thing.
So, Drag thinks countries that believe their neighbors are part of a greater whole ruled by them as the motherland are communist?
That’s imperialism, buddy.
Let me know when: 1) China stops trying to exert absolute control over Tibet, Taiwan, and Hong Kong; 2) North Korea accepts that their ownership ends where their globally-recognized territory ends; 3) Russia stops invading neighboring countries.
Drag has no idea what you’re talking about, does not support China, and would prefer lowercase pronouns, please.
If drag does not support China, drag is probably not a tankie. If drag calls drag communist and consider Russia and North Korea communist-lead countries, drag is wrong, however.
Russia is capitalist, mate. The Berlin Wall fell. Drag doesn’t know why you think drag might be a tankie. Drag’s an anarchist.

I think practicality is the only important thing here, if something looks and tastes like milk, and can be used as milk in 98% of cases, it’s fine to call it a type of milk.

Drag doesn’t think we should call cow breast milk real milk, because validating it makes people more likely to drink it, and that’s wrong. We should be telling them it’s weird. That should be the default position for society.

Yeah no, you’re not wrong, cow milk is just another type of milk, there is no one “real” milk, animal or plant based.
It might be less weird in other contexts, but the in the context of our current farming practices, the fact that it needs to be pasteurized due to the likely presence of dangerous pathogens and has bio-available hormones, is weird as fuck.
