Trump officials quietly move to reverse bans on toxic ‘forever chemicals’

ff's tweet here may have some relevance in that.

What if there's a "new" kind of "enemy" that doesn't involve nonsense events we could dismantle in 5 minutes. Or war. War is lame.

tbf I caught a video someone posted on the totallycoolnontoxicforum.com some months ago where a farmers life had been ruined by EPA assessment at PFAS levels that might not pose a threat at higher metabolic rates. It was a tough watch, I'll try to find it.

The wokest pope ever.

Pope francis pushed migrants to the western world but did not want to house any in the Vatican. He was not Christian.

Things this pope will be remembered for:

A wooden statue of Pachamama.
Endorsing COVID vaccines and restrictions.
Advancing a secret Jesuit agenda to control the Church and world governments.
Being central to the gay lobby in Vatican.
Purging traditionalists.
Laudato Si.
Fratelli Tutti.
Undermining national sovereignty.

Pope Francis increased migration, and pushed climate communism and the depopulation agenda.

Anti corp and finance sentiment seem more prominent in the rear view mirror. Maybe yet to be coopted. Even players had pains for dot com losses.
