(Acommpanied with an image of a menu reading “Lactose and Gluten Free Restaurant”)
And this is what I’m tired of seeing everywhere.
Lactose & Gluten Free?
So we’re just pumping out the tofu over in this restaurant?
And it stays in business?
Does no one understand what the agenda behind soy is?

As part of a culinary travelogue series, Jamie Oliver went to Okinawa: which has one of the longest-lived populations in Japan. It's certainly one of, if not the biggest consumers of Soya-based products.
So someone's wrong: and it's not looking too good for your 'agenda', OP.
Typical winger, makes allusions without saying what they are.
(In case you didn’t know, he’s actually saying that 1.) a lactose and gluten free restaurant must be reliant on soy, 2.) soy has feminising qualities in men and 3.) that there is a conspiracy to turn men feminine so that they won’t vote for manly politicians like him. Yes, it’s fucking retarded but this is exactly what he means and what he is implying.)

He is running as an independent. There are also two Democrats and two Republicans, one of whom is the incumbent (Brian Mast). The odds are not good. (Not good for the quotee, I mean. Better for everyone else.)
Sure, outside from those really suffering from coeliac disease, gluten-free diet is a fad, but there is a large number of persons unable to injest lactose.
And which would be the use to push these, apart if you believe “Big Soya” is powerful enough to enact these measures?

I’m glad this guy’s chances are nil. Also, Do these idiots ever consider that people vote for Progressive stuff out of their own free will because it’s beneficial and not because something they ate brainwashed them into it?
Also, He speaks of feminization like it’s a bad thing!
Soy was first made “a thing” in the heavily-Patriarchal cultures of China and Japan, both known for a past strong culture of mighty warriors, technological innovations and huge populations. If soy turns a guy into a hybrid of Mohandas Gandhi & Charles Nelson Reilly (the real one, not the ‘Weird Al song’ one) I’d imagine the Orient would have been a lot less militaristic, macho and populated (…not that would be a bad thing necessarily…) and a lot more “fabulous”.
Sure; Too much opposite sex hormones could mess-up a person (He’s grown boobs! She’s looks like a hirsute Shrek!) and a lack of sex hormones could be also problematic (as guys with low-T count and menopausal women could attest), I still think society as a whole could use a huge shot of “Feminine Virtues” because this macho crap hurts EVERYONE! Masculinity is awesome provided that it accepts and respects the Feminine. Femininity is a “Humanizing force”.
Finally, soy is full of PHYTOestrogens…NOT ACTUAL ESTROGEN. It’s called “phytoestrogen” due to the molecule resembling the estrogen molecule despite being completely different! Unless you have hypothyroid (like yours truly), soy is perfectly healthy and beneficial.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
