> it is deposited in our bodies Through exactly which sources, and in what dosages? > slowly killing us At what rate? At what dosages? With what symptoms? This is what I mean by "actionable information". If the article spent anywhere near as much time explaining the actual details of the risks as it did trying to paint DuPont as mustache-twirling villains, people might actually be able to make an informed decision of "alright, well I should limit my exposure to these things by this much, and keep an eye out for these symptoms, and we should enact these measures to prevent further harm". And that ain't to say that DuPont is not a bunch of mustache-twirling villains -- only that the emphasis on presenting them as such is far less helpful than an emphasis on the actual details and an actual solution beyond "let's be mad at DuPont".

> Through exactly which sources, and in what dosages? So any teflon product, non-stick pots and pans, waterproof clothing and furniture, self cleaning ovens, microwave popcorn bags, pizza boxes, and much much more... Non-sticky nature, has a nature of non-sticking to those products as well :P it seems ... Through those products goes directly into the body, and then when it is disposed goes to landfills, from there to water ... > "alright, well I should limit my exposure to these things by this much, and keep an eye out for these symptoms, and we should enact these measures to prevent further harm". As I said, you cannot, you are already poisoned, and you cannot remove it from the nature. You can just try to stop "mustache-twirling villains" to do the future harm, as they shown in 2019 they are capable of simply giving Zero Fs for what public wants. Additionally, calling them "mustache-twirling villains" it is downplaying danger turning it into the light comedy piece, which will make public care even less about the issue. Just imagine I poison you and then when you get angry I use perfect stand up comedian skills and everyone laugh at you, and say "don't worry you will be fine, people dying anyway" - (Which was exact sentence of the women from Scotland refusing to wear the mask during Corona virus pandemic while she was thrown out of the airplane)

  > Additionally, calling them "mustache-twirling villains" it is downplaying danger turning it into the light comedy piece, My point is that the author's reliance on hyperbolic and emotionally-charged language is what makes the article read like a light comedy piece. It's exactly the sort of rhetoric employed by anti-vaxxers and chemtrail believers, and it cheapens the message. The facts are damning enough. Let them speak for themselves.
