Products increasing cancer risk revealed
Studies have shown this literally since the 80's, I did a video on it actually.
Amazing that people claim their body is a temple, then knowingly poison it.
People will never understand how to follow their life - based on science (facts), and forever live a pure narcissistic hedonistic cycle of sense-pleasures, even when their entire family is drowning from the continent sinking (yes, there's a map that proves that the entire US will be underwater in just years).
It's just like anti-maskers/vaxxers, they follow their opinions like (herd immunity), even though that doesn't apply to covid and new viruses..
They 1. refuse to do something so simple a child can do it.
- refuse to get a shot based in science-fact that proves a healthier lifespan after getting covid.
The mass-dissonance is utterly baffling and would be hilarious if I didn't have to suffer for everyone else's selfishness that doesn't even care about their own health or their families (according to logic and science, not opinions).
