Is MAGA Eating Raw Chicken? Reality is Actually WORSE Than the Viral Posts

A bizarre idea has been circulating across social media: that “MAGA supporters” have moved on from rejecting masks and vaccines to proudly eating raw chicken as a culture‑war statement.

The claim is meme‑ready and irresistible to doomscrollers. But once the joke is peeled back, what remains is a mix of shock‑influencer content, wellness‑adjacent pseudoscience, and partisan projection — not an organized right‑wing campaign.

In the past few years, raw‑meat and “ancestral diet” influencers have built substantial audiences by posting themselves eating uncooked animal products on TikTok and Instagram, including raw beef, liver, and increasingly raw chicken, all framed as a rebellion against “processed food,” “toxins,” and mainstream nutrition advice.

The posts are designed to be outrageous and shareable, and the politics of the creators range from hard‑right to apolitical clout‑chaser. Their target is not so much the government as the algorithm.​

***************************************************************************************************

The article goes on to explain that this toxic mixture of loony health ideas mixed with distrust and science will further erode any genuine scientific proof about what is healthy or not.

I don't want people to eat animals at all, but sure, MAGAs, please eat them raw if you eat them at all.....

Lots of e.coli there, and don't forget the majority of raw chicken also has salmonella or some other nasty contamination.
