because the dairy industry is tax subsidized & pays for propaganda commercials to make people think you need cow's milk as an adult

I’ve got news for you. Adults drank milk way before any of those things existed.

Only a rather small group of people were even able to consume milk past infancy without negative health effects, and that's mostly because they were the ones that survived the famine that necessitated surviving such a diet. Lactase persistence is a recessive gene

As in, people have literally evolved to be able to drink cow's milk.
