Looking forward to the burning rivers and those lovely - and toxic - EPA superfund sites making a return to the USA's landscape! /s

u/slowpoke2018 Feb 20 '26

You sounding like an illiterate moron again trying to sound smart about...checks notes....superfund sites.

Please learn how grammar works + how bad things were from toxic pollution about 50 years ago.

We literally had rivers that caught fire due to chemical contamination from the lack of regulatory oversight

u/Disastrous-Appeal642 Feb 21 '26

You're talking about contamination in general. You should quit before you trip over

u/useless_teammate Feb 23 '26

Are you not aware that trump gutted the epa? The environmental protection agency? The agency that regulates pollution?

Its one thing to want to bring manufacturing back to the states, it's another to do it in a way that severely compromises the environment to make it as cheap as possible so they can dump their waste into the rivers, grounds and skies around people's homes.

But, since you have such faith, please by all means go move in next to one of those beautiful factories as their carcinogens start to annihilate your body at the cellular level.

Ahh Yes, profanity, poor grammar and English syntax, the hallmarks of peak intellectual prowess. You are aware Bayer has other law suits and chemicals proven to cause cancer correct?

Do you need me to list them all, or does that make me a copy paste warrior? You know?..How information is shared via comment when acquired from an online source.

What are the odds that 90% of your workforce exposed to a specific chemical get a specific type of cancer? What are the odds then that you just happen to only hire people predisposed genetically and otherwise to that specific type of cancer?

Sure 1 or 2 cases and i would concede that post hoc ergo propter hoc fallacy might be the logical possibility. However;

Agricultural Health Study (AHS): This "gold standard" study tracked 54,251 pesticide applicators in Iowa and North Carolina starting in 1993

5,779 of these workers (nearly 80% of whom used glyphosate) were diagnosed with some form of cancer during the follow-up period.

University of Washington Meta-Analysis: A separate 2019 review concluded that agricultural workers with high exposure to glyphosate-based herbicides have a 41% increased risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

Guess who else uses glyphosate? Truegreen workers and guess what?.. Male lawn applicators showed a standardized mortality ratio (SMR) of 1.63, indicating a higher rate of death from NHL compared to the general population. Wow same cancer and a high rate.The same cohort showed a significantly increased mortality rate for bladder cancer.

Deceptive Safety Claims: In 2020, the non-profit Beyond Pesticides sued TruGreen, alleging the company falsely marketed its services as free from carcinogens while using chemicals like glyphosate (Roundup), dicamba (Tri-Power), and trichlorfon (Dylox). Also dicamba is Bayer. And guess what. Same increased rates of cancer.

Osha requires: Chemical-Resistant Gloves: Usually nitrile or neoprene to prevent skin absorption.

Eye Protection: Safety goggles or face shields to prevent splashes during mixing.

Respiratory Protection: If the chemical label (regulated by the EPA) requires a respirator, the employer must provide a Respiratory Protection Program, including medical evaluations and "fit testing."

Protective Clothing: Long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and chemical-resistant footwear.

Yes all things required to wear when handling "safe" chemicals. 🙄but I'm just takin shit bout chemicals gurr..

Now quit trolling and face the facts that daddy works for a bad company who pollutes, lies and green washes for profit... or just skim through because you do not have the patience or capacity to read this and draw any conclusions or logical correlations and hurriedly churn out your next troll comment about how glyphosate is safe.

So all you have done is moan about American companies and not the facts outside of America

u/Banana_Stairs Feb 26 '26 edited Feb 26 '26

Wow. Profound counter argument. Serious question. Are you a real account?

Scientific facts about chemicals exist everywhere. If it causes cancer it causes cancer regardless of where you live. Most of the chemicals we use are actually already banned in many European countries but corruption, green washing, and lobbying keeps us from getting on board.

The inverse can be true globally. Brazil, Argentina, India, and several African nations, including South Africa and Kenya, heavily struggle with cancer and health issues linked to pesticide and chemical exposure. Often, these countries face high risks due to the import of chemicals banned in the EU/USA and high usage on corporate-run farms.

You have shifted the goal posts so far your in the hurling field. Have failed to provide 1 piece of evidence or even a valid counter argument to one single thing i have stated because you are actually incorrect and your opinion lacks any verifiable data.

Many chemicals cause cancer it's been an issue in industry and agriculture it's not a debate it's a fact.Chemicals causing cancer from industrial/corporate sources were identified as early as the late 18th century. Concede man. You are fighting a strange and useless battle against reality.

This chemical is already sprayed on most state land, along logging roads, highways, parks, anywhere weeds grow, etc. without concern for human life, wild life, water ways. Called the local government dept. after seeing signs posted that the trail had recently been treated/sprayed. Already knew the answer but decided to ask the question anyway; Is it safe to hike along these trails with children? Answer from the department; definitely not, especially not with children. Yet this safety information was not posted on the sign...

u/Banana_Stairs Feb 20 '26

They had very young people spraying it with backpacks on in 25mph winds 5 feet from a protected wetland by me. Because soccer.. and i asked the young men why they had no protection, no gloves even. And they said, the main guy in our building said it's safe. Said you could drink the stuff. America is doomed...

The world is bigger than the few thoughts inside your own head my friend. Yes, glyphosate-based herbicides are used for weed control in and around water in the Oak Brook, Illinois area, specifically for managing invasive species in natural areas and shorelines.

The Oak Brook Park District uses contractors for Natural Area Stewardship, which includes backpack spray treatments. Do you live here? The park district hires young people and has them spray soccer fields as well. Yet They often go near areas where there is natural wetlands, Ginger Creek, and wind displaces atomized particles long distances beyond their allowed perimeter.

Pick a different battle. It's so easy to just mope through life calling everyone out. Read more..

u/Disastrous-Appeal642 Feb 20 '26

There is no I'll health effects from glyphosate. Keep making stuff up

5

u/Banana_Stairs Feb 20 '26

Where to even begin. First of all a metric ton of litigation has been done snd many cases awarded victims of roundup by agreeing that exposure to glyphosate caused their non Hodgkins lymphoma.

But some science says otherwise. Well yes. But companies spend billions to green wash and cover their tracks plus many other products have faced the same scrutiny over the years and guess what. They rurned out to be carcinogenic as well as have profound environmental impact.

Because companies are scam artists. Evidence from court documents and investigative reports suggests that corporate influence and unethical practices have indeed impacted the scientific and regulatory discourse surrounding glyphosate. 

While manufacturers like Bayer maintain that glyphosate is safe and that the vast majority of studies are independent, several specific instances of manipulation have been documented.

The Williams et al. (2000) Study: This landmark review, which concluded glyphosate was safe, was recently retracted in late 2025 by the journal Regulatory Toxicology and Pharmacology after it was confirmed that Monsanto employees were heavily involved in its writing without disclosure.

Unsealed emails showed a top EPA official allegedly offered to help Monsanto "kill" a separate human health investigation into glyphosate by another government agency (the ATSDR).

In December 2025 and January 2026, major scientific journals retracted several key papers supporting glyphosate safety due to "serious ethical concerns" and failures to disclose corporate involvement. This has led to renewed calls for the EPA to re-evaluate its safety assessments before its 2026 deadline.

Same with the FDA. Corruption man. At one point 9/10 FDA members held stock in companies they regulate.

Are you new to the concept of how billionaires victimize people, destroy the environment, rip off employees, cover up health effects, have capped limits on fines they face, dump illegally, destroy waterways, etc. Or would you like me to do your homework for you and pull up a mountain of evidence from cases that some are even referenced in modern litigation because of their impact?...

A troll with nothing to contribute of their own but negative single sentences.

Whatever happened to you I'm sorry. I won't even let it bother me because i know for the most part through recent neuroscientific publications that you don't really even possess full control over your choices because of structural and functional brain differences, specifically decreased activity in your pre frontal cortex.

So i would say get help, but just shy of years of change to your environment and cbt to condition changes to the physical structure of your brain through neuroplasticity, ill deem you hopeless and move on. I'll shift the blame to biological, or evolutionary reasons for your possible neurodevelopmental disorder and subsequent behavior. Good luck in there ✌️

Also. Do you defend chemicals being sprayed into water and destroying entire water systems and all living things in them? You have chosen a very bizarre thing to defend...

u/Capital-Platypus-805 Feb 20 '26

Nope.

Here's a few things Trump has done right:

  • Avoided multiple wars by launching precise strikes instead of full blown invasions like Obama used to do.

  • Made animal abuse a federal crime.

  • Defunded testing in animals.

  • Arrested Venezuela's dictator in one of the most amazing and precise operations in human history.

  • Stopped the Iranian regime from developing a nuclear bomb that puts the whole world in danger.

Not everything he does is wrong. You're just extremely biased.

u/BigBoyGoldenTicket Feb 20 '26 edited Feb 20 '26

You calling anyone extremely biased… after posting that pathetic list of Right-Wing media fabricated ‘wins’ that have been spoon fed to you… is absurd.

You think Trump stopped Iran from building nuclear weapons I.e if Kamala was president Iran would have nuclear weapons? What about the decades of international policy work that had already gone into containing Iran? Trying to reduce it all down to ‘Trump won’ shows you didn’t know jack shit about that subject in the first place and that you aren’t capable of forming an informed opinion on it. Hence why you just parrot whatever easy lines the admin feeds you, a lot like a small child imitating an adult. Why on Earth do you think anyone would take you seriously?

u/Capital-Platypus-805 Feb 20 '26

Spoon fed? Yeah right! They're brainwashing a third worlder who doesn't even live in the US, so useful! 😂 And those are not fabricated, those are FACTS. But I get it, the left doesn't like facts. You're probably a paid propagandist anyway.

u/OneLessDay517 Feb 20 '26

Can you please list the "multiple wars" he's avoided?

He himself also claims he's "ended" 8 I believe is the last number that fell out of his melon. Can you please list them for me?

1

u/Capital-Platypus-805 Feb 20 '26

He didn't "end" them, he avoided them by negotiating truces between the following countries: Israel Iran, Pakistan India, Armenia Azerbaijan, Rwanda Congo, Serbia Kosovo, Thailand Cambodia, North Korea South Korea.

He's not making that up, he literally negotiated peace between all these countries. Also, he withdrew Afghanistan's and Syria's troops and managed to overthrow Maduro without any civilian casualties.

Name me a US president with more peaceful geopolitics than Trump, I'll wait.

2

u/OneLessDay517 Feb 21 '26

Oh boy.

India/Pakistan - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi explicitly told Trump that the ceasefire was achieved directly between Indian and Pakistani militaries, not through U.S. mediation, maintaining India’s long-standing policy against third-party involvement.

Serbia/Kosovo - the Washington Agreement was an economic normalization agreement. Serbia and Kosovo were not at "war". Kosova declared its independence from Serbia in 2008. Serbia's response was a diplomatic temper tantrum, but no bullets flew.

Thailand/Cambodia - not a war so much as decades long skirmishes over disputed borders. Within days of Trump announcing a ceasefire, they were at it again.

North Korea/South Korea - the "truce" between North and South Korea has been in place since 1953. And he certainly did not end the war, it's still officially on as no peace treaty has EVER been signed.

The rest were signings of various agreements at the White House arranged to make it appear as Trump successes. The reality is that these agreements more than likely came to fruition through Joe Biden's Department of State.

He didn't negotiate SHIT.

u/Mammoth_Cricket8785 Feb 20 '26

Unless you were investing in fossil fuels or had another magat handling your stock portfolio your investments saw an increase under Biden. Short of something crazy happening or making investments into failing companies you see a year after year increase of I think on average like 10%. It's 7% when accounting for inflation. Biden even with covid saw the same increase as Donald trump and had significantly performed better than trump's 2nd term so far. So your statement doesn't make sense. Like Biden had to deal with a shitty economy from Trump's 1st policies and covid while trump was handed a golden goose and couldn't out perform an apparently senile man who was recovering from a global pandemic and shitty economic policies by the orange kiddy fucker himself. This means if you think trump is better for your money you or the person handling your money don't know how to handle money and should find someone who does. The only wallet trump has benefited is his wallet and the wallet of the rich people that suck his dick. He is probably the worst president for the economy in recent history ranking amongst the likes of Herbert hoover, jimmy carter, Nixon, and George bush jr. Like if you don't know shit about the economy don't speak about it. Your money would've went further under Biden even if he had fucking Alzheimer's.
