  • Israel committing a genocide and trying to justify it due to the actions of Hamas

    Never justified it. In the original comment I was pointing how out hypocritical it is to support either side

    No need to be offence, it’s not the way to converse with people

    Unfortunately that’s not how reddit users (lemmy in this case) work, everyone I’ve had conversations with on this app don’t use reason or critical thinking, they jump to conclusions while never leaving their ego chamber. At this point it’s just more fun to insult you all since no matter how many facts I give yall, none of you listen anyways. And I’m not the only one who sees it either

    Its not just him either, there was many more in the comments saying the same thing, he just summerized it the best




  • What’s the actual difference between a cancer cell and a normal cell, aside from the fact that cancer cells don’t kill themselves

    You answered your own question

    Is cancer from a cow transmissible to humans?

    Who knows? What’s the whole point. Were playing god without knowing the consequences.

    People knew the effects of tobacco for centuries, actually

    Wrong. Doctors lied about it for years when it first came out and long after

    Within like 2 years cigarettes went from being something prescribed by doctors to something that everyone knows gives you cancer.

    Again, wrong. Early warning signs didn’t show up until the late 50s by then it had been 20-30 years to late. And Dr. Luther Terry didn’t come in for another 14 after that in '64. Even despite this evidence, the tobacco industry went to massive lengths to discredit the research and downplay the health risks by funding biased research, launched propaganda campaigns, and used public relations strategies to create doubt. It wasn’t until '98 that the Master Settlement Agreement came into effect. A whole 68 years before they paid for their crimes.

    When something is as heavily scrutinized as vapes or lab-grown meat, you can be damned sure the effects will be widely understood within a couple of decades

    Decades? You mean the 7+ decades it took for tobacco? After which everyone had died already? Idk about you but I’m not waiting 10-20-30+ years to find out if I get a new disease named after me.

    The fact is people who advocate for this shit don’t understand science and just believe what their told to, just like what everyone believed when big tobacco ran those propaganda campaigns for 70 years, or what some still believe about global warming from big oil’s propaganda campaigns.

    Just because we don’t know something today doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, humans arent as smart as we give ourselfs credit. And just be we did it in the past, doesn’t mean we’ve learned from those mistakes because clearly you all are still buying the shit they feed you and begging for more.
