There's no such thing as good chemicals, because the very name means "toxic waste" and is evil[0]. Aspartame and MSG are evil because they cause neurotoxicity[1]. Fluride is evil because it makes you stupid and is industrial waste.[2] GMO is evil because...well, Monsanto. And putting Prozac in there smacks of mental illness denial...I know the Natural News guy is a former Scientologist, but in most cases, it's more out of distrust of the world around them than belief in any one religion.

[0] Honestly, I blame the media in part for not differentiating between "chemicals" (which are literally everything), and "dangerous goods" (things that could harm you or cause property damage in relatively small quantities if mishandled). Images of open 55-gallon drums oozing mutagen-like green goo don't help.

[1] IFF you were to inject either one directly into nervous tissue, anyway. Glutamates can't cross the blood-brain barrier.

[2] Fluoride, as HF, is an even more powerful neurotoxin, but it also has the side effects of destroying your skin and eating your bones if you get it on you. However, fluoride in the tiny amounts they use in water isn't particularly dangerous. People that write these things tend not to understand that the dose makes the poison, and that ions don't necessarily have the same effects as the acid they're part of; this is a bit like saying salt is dangerous because the muriatic acid they use to clean bricks can burn you. The "industrial waste" thing comes from the fact that a lot of fluoride comes from phosphate mining, with the implication that it's shite because it's a side product (the main product being phosphoric acid).

fluride

Fossilmaiden · 2014-07-08 23:21:57

It's sad really. Monsanto are evil, just not for the reasons crazy people say they are.

lee4hmz · 2014-07-08 23:24:17

They're certainly greedy, but the really off forms of non-GMO think that the food is poisoned somehow and will give you cancer.

Okay, whenever I see images like this:
I keep thinking they were made by someone saying things like "the chemicals...they puts them in our fooooods, precioous...we hates them, nasty tricksy chemicalls..."

Nobody puts MSG in anything but Doritos and the like any more; genetically altered foods are a potential danger to biodiversity, not human health; fluoride is harmless in general; and while the presence of anti-depressants in the water supply and their over-prescription by psychiatrists are worrying, some people genuinely need them. Only aspartame is especially sinister, and that's more because it does the opposite of what it's supposed to do.

Sometimes I say to mother that maybe not drinking diet cola anymore would be a good idea, but she cares more about calories than the actual ingredients of the things we eat and drink...

lee4hmz · 2014-07-09 01:53:12

Aspartame-sweetened stuff has a certain bitterness to it, especially if it's just aspartame and not other sweeteners like ace-K.

Anonus · 2014-07-09 01:53:51

It's also frustrating that it feels like NOBODY has non-diet soda in their house.

A bit like how people under the age of 70 or so don't have rocking chairs >_>

Sredni Vashtar · 2014-07-09 01:55:17

I do not drink diet soda.

But then, I prefer sodas that are actually sweetened with sugar, and those are hard to find sometimes...

Anonus · 2014-07-09 01:55:40

do they sell Mexican Coke in your area?

Sredni Vashtar · 2014-07-09 01:56:20

Yes. It is good.

Obā-san · 2014-07-09 02:40:40

ROAD CLOSED

AT RAILROAD

LOCAL TRAFFIC ONLY

SF_Sorrow · 2014-07-12 20:47:19

Bury me in a marijuana field

That's where I really long to be

And I can go out in a blaze of glory

When you roll a joint up out of me

You can smoke me in your hash pipe

Shoot me intravenously

Want to be wise? Let me fertilize your garden spot

And you'll roll a joint up out of me

Don't bury me in the graveyard

Or underneath the old oak tree

I want to lay beneath the clay

Until the time when you roll a joint up out of me

When the autumn wind is blowin'

Marijuana plants will bend

It's like shoveling snow, the wind will blow those seeds around

And they'll put me back in place again

Bury me in a marijuana field

That's where I really long to be

And I can go out in a blaze of glory

When you roll a joint up out of me

Princess Alice · 2014-07-12 22:09:08
