The anti-soy stuff is 100% a psyop by the meat industry. (hexbear.net)

Complaining about tofu being bland is the equivalent of saying that a blank canvas is boring.

Saying you hate tofu is such a self own. It is one of and maybe the most versatile food of all time. It is cheap. It's macros are at parity with chicken breast. It keeps well AND is much safer (food safety and healthwise) than meat.

I can confirm as someone going from eating meat with every meal to vegan, basic ass fried tofu tastes better than most restaurant meat these days.

What is even wilder is that the US grows a lot of soybeans, and the ideal target for MAGA would probably be a soybean farmer.

It absolutely cooks my brain that gym bro memes from 2012 are common knowledge among chuds now. the whole 'soy has phytoestrogens therefore soy makes you a woman' felt like a psyop even back then

Wish the argument about how many days there are in a week would break containment

I think they've forgotten the phytoestrogen propaganda entirely and it has become its own self sustaining soy mythos.
