the "woke" agenda from the Jewish perspective:
Charles Jacobson 2023 6/25:
https://www.toojewishradio.com/Too%20Jewish%20MP3's/Too_Jewish_2023-06-25.mp3
. the liberal agenda has been about equal opportunity for all;
whereas the "woke" agenda now in play
is about equal results:
if a race or culture is getting worse results,
that is proof they are getting oppressed by
the races or cultures that are getting good results.
. people of the Jewish culture have some of the best results
so among "woke" liberals
the Jewish nation has lost its status as victims,
and are instead a big part of the oppression.
. actually, the main reason that
the Jewish nationals are seen as oppressors,
is for their support of zionism:
[ their being willing to wage an endless war
to maintain a Jewish state in Israel
at the expense of the Islamic state that existed there
for several hundred years.]
. authentic Judaism entails zionism,
so when liberals attack zionism,
they are being antisemitic.

"Betrayal: The Failure of American Jewish Leadership" [ad]

vegetables having bitter anti-cancer goodness bred out of them:
. when you hear that certain foods have anti-cancer effects,
consider that some are trying to breed sweeter vegetables
that could reduce their anti-cancer effects.
. many brussel sprouts have been bred to have less
bitter glucosinolates, which made them more popular.
https://twitter.com/scifri/status/1657085545338531840
https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/otc-birth-control-pill/#segment-transcript
. glucosinolates are known for beneficial effects including
regulation of inflammation, stress response,
and phase I metabolism.
Glucosinolates that combine with myrosinase,
can become an anti-cancer isothiocyanate.
. foods with high glucosinolates
should not be the primary source of energy
because heavy doses can result in goiter, anemia,
organ lesions, and reduced growth.

. in what other ways are healthy fruits and vegetable
made less healthy or anti-cancer by breeding that makes them
sweeter or less bitter?

low-dose aspirin seems good for eyes except with vitamins:
summary:
. there are some studies that seemed to show
that aspirin increased your risk of blindness;
but the best type of study (randomized trials)
showed they actually reduced the risk of blindness
unless you happen to be the user of multivitamins.
. one study showed that only people with good genes
may benefit from a good diet;
but you should be safe from AMD blindness if you
limit both omega-6 vegetable oils and your glycemic load.

Age-related maculopathy in a randomized trial of low-dose aspirin among US physicians.
Ophthalmology. 2009:
Low-dose aspirin and medical record-confirmed age-related macular degeneration in a randomized trial of women.
. using 100mg aspirin every other day
slightly reduced your risk of AMD
yet increased your risk if you used certain multivitamin supplements.
"Among current nonusers of multivitamins,
those in the aspirin group had a statistically-significant
32% reduced risk of AMD (HR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.49−0.95)
whereas among current users of multivitamins,
there was a nonsignificant 14% increased risk of AMD
in the aspirin group (HR, 1.14; 95% CI, 0.76−1.70)"

"In AREDS, both aMedi[Mediterranean-type diet] and its fish component
interacted with CFH rs10922109 for late AMD
(P = 0.01 and P = 0.0005, respectively);
higher aMedi and fish intake were each associated with
decreased risk of AMD only in participants with protective alleles.
Closer adherence to a Mediterranean-type diet
was associated with lower risk of progression to late AMD and to large drusen.
The signal was greater for GA than neovascular AMD.
Fish intake contributed to this protective association.
CFH genotype strongly influenced these relationships.
Hazard ratios (HRs) for progression in aMedi tertile 3 versus 1
were 0.78 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.71-0.85, P < 0.0001)
for late AMD, 0.71 (0.63-0.80, P < 0.0001) for GA,
and 0.84 (0.75-0.95, P = 0.005) for neovascular AMD.
For fish consumption, HRs for late AMD in quartile 4 versus 1 were
0.69 (0.58-0.82, P < 0.0001; AREDS) and
0.92 (0.78-1.07, P = 0.28; AREDS2).

breaking up the lentils
can then instead be used for immediately
attacking anti-nutrients.

I dug up the rest of the pot looking for potatoes,
but all I could find were 2 very small ones,
and one of the seed potatoes that seemed chewed,
while the pot seemed dragged out of place,
having me wonder if an animal did this,
but most likely a human was looking for a cactus.
