What value do George and u/parking_war add here?
Sorry for being snippy. I do appreciate the post, it's just funny to me how lately, a lot of memes are three levels of quotes deep.
We can go deeper.
They're just citing their work
Reddit and Twitter are cesspools that I quit a long time ago, I've never been on TikTok, if the better content from those places gets reposted elsewhere (putting aside whether this qualifies) that has value.
I need to somehow post Hank Green's Tiktok crashout basically saying "Everything is a conspiracy if you don't know how anything works." I think Lemmy would love that video.
Meme conscientiousness callout, a thankless job 🫡
Conspiracy theory people pride themselves on "knowing" something that others don't. It gives them a sense of superiority to everyone else because of that "knowledge"
Hard to blame them when "hermit who was right all along" is such a dope lifestyle
Problem is that people seem to be more intent on being right all the time instead of the hermit lifestyle part. Which means we get way more exposure to people who think they're right all the time.
It's kinda like having the lady full of lip filler and botox injections telling us that we shouldn't inject vaccines because we don't know what toxins are in them.
And they never realised Botox means botulinum toxin, an actual neurotoxin.
It's an ✨️aesthetic✨️ disfigurement and swelling.
Yeah.
I mean, people aren't perfect, they're hypocritical, but I draw the line at loudly preaching hypocriticism, and would want a chewing out if I was this person.
I remember a guy I used to work with, when I was drinking cold water he said "cold water is bad for you". I said "you're holding a cigarette right now".
I had a friend who wouldn't drink tap water because she claimed it contained parasites, but was addicted to Adderall and nicotine and insisted that American Spirits were "healthy" because they are "all natural".
An Epidemic of Fear: How Panicked Parents Skipping Shots Endangers Us All (2009):
Curt Linderman Sr., the host of “Linderman Live!” on AutismOne Radio and the editor of a blog called the Autism File, recently wrote online that it would “be nice” if [rotavirus vaccine co-inventor] Offit “was dead.”
I’d met Linderman at Autism One. He’d given his card to me as we stood outside the Westin O’Hare talking about his autistic son. “We live in a very toxic world,” he’d told me, puffing on a cigarette.
It was hard to argue with that.
they do say pick your poison
Same weirdos who hate seed oils claiming it's a poison by the government but drink alcohol every evening.
I mean, pick your poison, amirite?
read the title to the tune of bohemian rhapsody
Wait til she finds out there's fluorine in toothpaste
Most people who smoke, knowing what's in cigarettes, are idiots.
Ah so thats the joke!
Thank you.
Glad to help
They're on their way to the gym.
"🎶everyone wants to be, my enemy"
We used to shun people like this. No one would dare spew crap like this, let alone advertise it. Now they have their own little groups to tell them they're sane, they're right. People need to step it up and show them their shit is socially unacceptable.
Break that fucking sticker out with a fucking tire iron.
"Oh my goodness! That's going too far!"
No, it is not. People like this are poison to society, they are hurting us. Their bullshit has to be shoved back in the shadows. Make them afraid.
Before I stopped drinking, I never mixed coke with my scotch because that sugar water is poison.
Let me see
We don't know if they put that on the car.
Or if they agree with it
And even if they did
They have absolutely every right to put a sticker there
So I actually fail to see a problem
Do you want real life to be every form of expression to be censored and controlled by a central authority?
I mean, setting aside conspiracy or whatever clamor we could make about tap water... if someone is already addicted to nicotine, are they just not allowed to get angry at systemic forces anymore? Is that the point of this post?
Like, if the city government lets some company dump toxic waste into our drinking water supply, are the smokers just supposed to be cool with that? No, of course not, that would be absurd. You'd want smokers and non-smokers all marching on city hall, wouldn't you?
You people just want to hate on addicts. Just spare me the fucking soapbox in my inbox please, I really don't want to hear it.
This is right up here with making fun of horrendous people for the way they look and these people do that all the time. It's so important to insist that our enemies are fat or have weirld shirtless pictures when that's not even anything to do with why we are fighting them. Childish behavior.
They aren't angry at systemic issues, theyre mad because fox news and info wars told them to be mad.
mad at.... perceived systemic issues. the fact that it's fake news is irrelevant, since the criticisms levied here are applicable to any instance of government pollution. yall are basically saying "you can't be mad at that if you poison yourself in other ways!" which is obviously an absurd thing to say to someone who's angry at your cause. the only alternative explanation is that the people here assume she just doesn't believe that smoking is bad for her?? like that's it's funny to believe a bizarre thing is true and a well known fact is false? but you can't all possibly be that naive to think she doesn't know smoking is bad for her.
this is important. these are the kinds of biases that we NEED to keep in check.
Wasn't the last time this was posted her having an anti-vaxer bumper sticker?
One is a choice the other is not.
It's just funny that a person is protesting a potentially harmful substance while consuming one of the most harmful readily available substances.
Uhh sure, but both substances are sold by corporations. Both are poisons. One has no health benefits beyond an extreme minority and the other has great health benefits applied topically.
I won't get into all the details about ingesting fluoride and where municipal fluoride comes from unless you want me to. It is a very unpopular here even if it is the truth.
