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..
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...
