It's not a bug, it's a feature

I guess the mold is a blueish color, but that's mold. Not cheese. If a block of cheese in my fridge looks like that then I somehow managed to not return home for months and now need to throw out everything.
That's about as smart as claiming the rat on your burger might be a 1000kg animal, but it has four legs and a tail, so it must be a rat.

What.... what do you think the blue part of blue cheese is?
I've never thought about it. I've never even seen the stuff before. The name turned me away from ever trying it, and this thread is only cementing that.

Blue cheese has mold in it, DISCUSTING!

I love blue cheese. I'm picky as fuck but somehow love blue cheese. Just blue cheese and some fresh crusty bread... Mmm

Ok, I can't think of a way to interpret this other than: OP eats cheese that looks like this. OP, if I'm right (and I hope I'm not) please see a physician.
It's honestly so good.

Mimolette is the cheese with bugs. (Well actually actually arachnids, but close enough)
The bugs living on the cheese are called "artisons" in France. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fromage_aux_artisons?wprov=sfla1

It's not blue cheese! It's mimonette, filled with bugs!

It is a kind of mold, but not the common (disgusting and hazardous) stuff that grows on spoiled food.

Based on what I can find, they are microscopic mites. You also have microscopic mites all over your face that you probably ingest at some point or another... So it's really not that weird.

It's also horrific animal abuse. Actual atrocity.

What you're looking for is called Cazu Marzu, and it's illegal to sell it in most of the only region of the world that actually makes the stuff.

I'm not taking a side in this, but I will point out saying "please educate yourself" while linking to a random YouTube video is pretty reminiscent of COVID deniers, antivaxers, and conspiracy theorists. YouTube isn't a respectable source and the statement itself has been poisoned when used in that way.
I'm not sure what would work for everyone of course, and some people won't be convinced either way, but linking to multiple varied sources, preferably trustworthy ones, may help your argument.

This borders on disingenuousness masquerading as helpfulness. You dismiss the argument by grouping it with antivaxers. If you don't want to watch the documentary just say I don't have time or I prefer written scientific journals. But to say ahhh youtube must be like the antivaxers, you are lumping together unrelated things which builds bias in other people.
If you want an academic paper there is no shortage. Start with Slaughterhouse Workers, Animals, and the Environment written by assistant professors from NYU and Vermont Law and available on the NIH.
Dominion is a documentary. It is on imdb with a score 8.9/10. It primarily uses drones and hidden cameras in Australia slaughter houses.
If you want to be critical do what the meat industry executives did and say its not systematic but isolated.
Australian Meat Industry Council Chief Executive, Patrick Hutchinson, has said, "What the film shows is not representative of the practices of the wider industry".
The producer who spent 7 years gathering the footage had this to say,
"As it stands, [consumers] have only seen one side of the story, the side that the industry puts out, not the side that goes behind the imagery of happy animals, to see what it’s really like on farms, and at slaughterhouses"

Yeah no I'm not sitting through a 2 hour biased documentary over the stance of "cheese is ok actually".

Blue cheese is intentionally inoculated with mold. Specifically penicillium mold that is perfectly safe to eat.
If a cheese "naturally" develops mold, there's a good chance it could be harmful, so don't eat that
