> There has 100% been a campaign by some group to make this disaster out to be way worse than it is. It's been all over reddit the last few days with scientifically thin, but fear mongering heavy videos/comments. That’s not a campaign, that’s just Reddit as normal. Reddit takes something that is directionally correct (chemical spill is bad) and then turns it into a competition for the most extreme and exaggerated takes. I took a quick glance at the first front page thread I could find on the topic. One of the top threads was a pseudo-scientific explanation that exposure to even trace amounts of the chemical results in death, implying that large swaths of the state were going to be dead soon. It’s amazing how Reddit turned into one giant conspiracy theory website.
