In case it’s not painfully obvious, this is a parody account.

    For sure instead of having your child scarred for life from a vaccine like the picture shows, a mild case of death is preferable.

    Stay safe out there, vaccines contain stuff with long words that sound dangerous. There are also many rumors that vaccines can cause all sorts of weird things you wouldn’t believe.

    In case you wonder, this is sarcasm.

      Just yesterday I was about to eat an orange from the supermarket, but then someone told me these contain (2R)-2-[(1S)-1,2-dihydroxyethyl]-3,4-dihydroxy-2H-furan-5-one. I mean seriously, I can’t even pronounce this - the question is who benefits from adding these chemicals to our fruits? The government?

      Luckily for me though, I replaced oranges with a healthy dose of Cheerios™ and I’m feeling very healthy and refreshed.

        Chemist here, no clue what this was at first glance. Hell’s bells IUPAC names for organic molecules are ugly. It’s ascorbic acid.

          Chemical engineer here, I remember when learning orgo that I thought the IUPAC names were hot shit and so formal and cool.

          As I got older and got exposure to industry it was a hard left turn. What do you mean “ethylene” is a better name for the olefin of ethane, vs ethene for the alkene? I mean seriously what kind of distinction is that?

          That’s why we biologists don’t ever touch IUPAC names.

          Does it come from an orange? Great, now it’s called orangy acid. Works fine for us.

          What’s that? Sugar from a fruit? Fructose. Don’t bother us.

        Absolutely outrageous, they also contain vitamins, and did you know vitamins are chemicals!!! Better to avoid that shit. With artificial flavor and color you get way fewer chemicals.

          Oh no, I drank some Dihydrogen monoxide! I hope I don’t die, cases of death from Dihydrogen monoxide exposure are quite common

      Reporting you for implying that I am willing to tolerate reading long words. Stop scaring me!

      /S cuz I’ve had dumber posts of mine taken seriously.

        No I report you! Look at the smart guy here, using fancy pantsy words like “implying”, as if that’s even a real word. ;)

            If it helps, I have to admit, that if the punctuation is correct, it’s purely accidental. It’s kind of on a timer. ;)
