This really applies to the west in general not just the U.S. Responding to another thread, but this is how I think the "just grow your own food" movement will go. > and there is nothing (nothing) which could prevent that custom from being restarted. "home farm animals, in particular, suburb style *amateur* animal husbandry, as opposed to *e X p E r ts and s C i e N t i F i C l L Y* run *modern* farms, risks spreading dangerous diseases, antibiotic-resistant strains, and new and more deadly forms of covid! Experts and scientific consensus, and health officials agree, that raising things like chickens, and pigeons is unsanitary and a risk to public health. People who do this are uninformed about how to properly care for and breed these animals, often lack permits, or often claim, without evidence, that theres a 'conspiracy' to deny permits or make it more difficult to get a license to raise animals. Anyone posting differently to this, or posting dangerous misinformation obviously has an agenda, and you should see twitter/reddit/facebook/your email providers policies about spreading potentially dangerous conspiracy theories and ignorance. Anyone who disagrees is probably just some country bumpkin racist/nazi, or one of those kill-grandma-for-my-chicken-sandwich 'muh guns and right to endanger public health!' bigots. They can roundly be ignored and banned. No one needs to listen to that nonsense, and their rights to advocate for dangerous new diseases and have 6 million chickens in a SUBURBAN FUCKING BACKYARD end where our right not to be endangered by their unsanitary practices begins, including the local water table polluted by run off."
