How is stating a fact that masks are made of plastic a conspiracy? TMK a conspiracy is when two or more people agree to do something. I could cite studies, but there are plenty to peruse here. https://searx.be/search?q=disposable+masks+shed+microplastics https://searx.be/search?q=disposable+masks+shed+microplastic...

The conspiracy is that masks are dangerous to wet, don’t play dumb. The first study in that list shows masks REDUCING micro plastic inhalation risk on their first use. The second is about UV degradation and weathering in the environment. Did you read any of these studies? I’m talking about the bullshit conspiracy mongering you engage in across a ton of threads.

  I don't think you understand what conspiracy means. If I was to say that some people have conspired to make us wear masks with intent to damage our health, then that would be a conspiracy theory. All I said is that the masks are made of plastic. Many of us moisten these masks with our breath, crumple them up in our pockets, and expose them to sunlight when outside. Then we suck air through them. If you don't think that might put nanoplastics into your lungs, it is your choice to believe what you want.

    Again the studies you linked pointed in the opposite direction. Sure it’s possible that using a mask to death could probably shed particles, but hey the instructions for how to use them correctly are pretty clear. I’m referring to the nonsense vaccine and cia related conspiracy nonsense you’re slinging in other threads. Just take it elsewhere.

      I did not cite anything. I sent you a search query of many studies, some of which were very clear about how they break down. I have no idea what conspiracy nonsense you are talking about. This is a place for critical thinking and discussion which includes skepticism of stories reported. If you want blind agreement with official narratives, just take it elsewhere.
