Are you not reading all the other comments on this thread? Haha. They might not be outright saying "don't use them", but there are several comments in this thread that say 'if you use candles then you don't care about improving health safety.'
I certainly get that vibe from a lot of the comments here, even if I detest scented candles and wish my partner would stop using them!
- medstrom 4y agoYou got an example of such a post? Only one I see is maybe dekhn's post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34427789 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34427789 But because someone says that "candles produce soot and other molecules which have been shown to be harmful", it doesn't mean the speaker is in a doom and gloom mindset: that's an interpretation you make.
