Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I mean I think there's info coming out about microplastics contributing to heart attacks and strokes by forming clots in the circulatory system, so if we got plastics in our blood and balls it's not too far of a stretch to say we got plastics in our dangle dongles too
Yes I know, I just think I would be a lot happier not knowing. I mean everyone is already riddled with anxiety. At least with politics we can study and understand and exert some agency however small. What can we do about the fact people are pumping our bodies full of plastic for profit? And then when they repeatedly put these articles in the press before they’ve discovered the implications (I mean maybe microplastics cause ED but they’re really just spitballing here) it doesn’t seem to have much social utility
Ignorance is bliss, knowledge is power. Use that power to tell the people capitalism is destroying humanity and that the cure is socialism.
