Do you really not get the difference between "the chemicals are the same chemicals" and "nuh uh?"

I'm ignoring it because you don't really have anything to say besides "we don't know what the health effects of lab grown meat will be" when it's quite literally exactly the same as normal meat. It's like complaints about GMOs. The process of producing it may be different, but the physical material that you consume is literally identical on a chemical level. It's nothing like cigarettes.

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

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Counterblaste_to_Tobacco

Some doctors may have been wrong, but that doesn't mean nobody knew cigarettes were dangerous. I'll save my time and assume that if you're this unabashedly wrong about this, you're probably as unabashedly wrong about everything else too

What's the actual difference between a cancer cell and a normal cell, aside from the fact that cancer cells don't kill themselves? Is cancer from a cow transmissible to humans?

People knew the effects of tobacco for centuries, actually. But also, it became widely known as soon as it started being widely investigated. I have the same argument about vapes all the time. Within like 2 years cigarettes went from being something prescribed by doctors to something that everyone knows gives you cancer. 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

What is in lab grown meat that you reckon is harmful?

Is the leaves thing common for people who get glasses for the first time? That was the most intense sight for me at 25 years old, was seeing the individual leaves on a tree like 50 feet away

Not always an option. Sometimes reaching for your phone to turn it off will get you killed. Just don't use biometrics.

Stick around and keep trying to improve the country despite everyone else's best efforts to fuck it all up

@starman2112@sh.itjust.works avatar

Do you have any idea what genetically modified organisms actually are? We're not talking about some chemical we've never heard of, we're talking about rice (but with more vitamin a). This isn't something that needs to be proven safe.

I love the downvotes from people who don't understand what GMOs even are

I'd love to not live in a country with him, but if I leave, I know the country gets a little bit worse for those who can't leave. This is why I advocate for staying in awful states if you can do so safely. If you leave, then the state gets even worse for the people who want to but can't.
