Trump Administration Sued By Physicians Over Inappropriate Meat & Dairy Influence in US Dietary Guidelines
In a lawsuit filed with the US District Court for the District of Columbia, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) argues that the Trump administration “hastily assembled a handpicked panel of meat, dairy, and fad diet industry insiders” to replace the independent Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC) and its two years of work.

Seize control of a trusted authority and exhaust its credibility to promote your financial interests. Absolute capitalism.
And this will accomplish what?
I mean, I know what I want it to accomplish, but I have doubts.
The previous somewhat more independent commission had reports that encourage more plant-based proteins over animal-based proteins. Not that we'll necessarily get a commission like that
Site doesn't load
Huh, strange it loads for me
Can try looking at an archived of it instead https://archive.is/MtYYw
Ignore them, they’ve turned off JavaScript and know how to fix the problem.
That archive site also never loads. It puts you in a captcha that requires a insecure browser running JavaScript
Can try other archives to see the site. Original site seems to load without Javascript for me (not archive.is) so I am not sure what the issue is

That Japanese one works, thanks!
Look m8, you’ve imposed an incredibly restrictive rule on yourself, which is your right to do. But just like a vegan walking into a BBQ restaurant, you don’t really have the wiggle room to complain that you’ve shot yourself in the foot.
On top of that, you’re giving annoyingly vague comments like “site doesn’t load” which immediately prompted the OP to try to help your annoying ass.
Tl;dr: Don’t punish others for your own choices.
I think there must be some other issue since the original site actually loads without JS, or at least it does for me when I tested it. The archive one doesn't of course
As an aside: not sure this a good comparison because veganism is not about the effects on oneself, it's about the effects from animal agriculture on non-human animals and society
Aside to the aside: vegan BBQ is also quite good as BBQ sauce itself is almost always vegan
It's actually a really good comparison, because ensuring we post links only to websites that everyone can read, it helps domestic abuse survivors and refugees and others at risk, who have to use aTor Browser and disable JavaScript to stay safe.
Veganism is for others, as is posting accessible content
It’s really not a good comparison because you’re trying to create false equivalence around the lives of sentient beings versus a random person being inconvenienced by technical illiteracy.
Edit: it wasn’t a paywall
You do you.
At the very least give a descriptive reason the site doesn’t load. This is the equivalent of calling tech support and saying “it doesn’t work” and intentionally leaving out the fact that you took out the main part that makes it work.
You know the problem, as proof by the fact that every time someone tries to help you pull out your “JavaScript bad” comment. So maybe just say “this site requires JavaScript and I don’t have it enabled so it won’t load.”
Hell, someone would probably paste the article to you if you did that. But instead you play this coy game.
