Unless you are hypersensitive to gluten, gluten free beer is nonsensical. A slice of bread contains 124,000 ppm of gluten. Lagers have 63 ppm, stouts 360 ppm, and ales can have up to 3,000 ppm. So even an ale has roughly 3% of the gluten a single slice of bread has.

87% of beer sold in the US is a lager. That is .0005% of a slice of bread's gluten.

Oh yes, so many products claim this pointlessly.

Gluten free beer, corn chips, ketchup, fruit snacks, dairy products, etc.

This is not generally true. Organic farmer can use what most would consider synthetic pesticides. These are not technically synthetic because they are derived in a lab from organic material like petroleum.

Organic is technically everything in the living world. The marketing version of organic is just that, marketing. There may be some regulations, but the devil is always in the details.

This all leads to conundrums like organic farmers shunning organic pesticides. It really is nonsensical.

I gave up sailing the high seas during the golden age of streaming. Unfortunately it has already come to an end with the majority of streaming services including ads for their highest tier.

I have wasted so much of my life on watching commercials, I refuse to waste anymore.

Yes, you showed my interview by cutting up what I said, but still staying true to journalistic integrity!? Give me five billion dollars!

I don't think people can even comprehend how much money that is, for... telling the truth?

Fake news only applies to sources Dear Leader doesn't like.

The Native Americans called about their genocide way before WWII.

I suspect when our founding fathers were blowing up and murdering their fellow colonists as seen in the Sons of Liberty they were bad actors.

Having worked in the industry I can safely say they are legal child traffickers.

That was great, thanks.

They exist on Lemmy. If they are labeled and serve a useful function they are generally not a problem. I find people with Alts or those that use AI to respond to people more annoying honestly.

I think other posters note that Lemmy is not a major target due to low user count and decentralized nature.

That is a lot of drug addicts to cut off at once.
