People had their life ruined for a tweet from a decade ago. Now imagine your whole life is tweeted minute by minute. Even if the current government won't hang you, it doesn't mean the next one won't do it for the things that

What science? The science that says that shepards who eat meat can live 100+? Nutrition beyond basics is freakishly complex and nuanced. There is no place for blanked statements such as "meat is bad" here.
