This explains Trump and Biden?
Christ, can not every thread be about them?
Given their age it's more likely lead poisoning
They’re old enough that my bet is atomic testing.
Haha, rich people houses didn't use lead paint. That was for the poors. Rich people have paneling and frescoes.
For decades everyone has lead service lines and gasoline had lead in it.
Unless a person lived through the 20th century drinking from a spring on an island hundreds of miles away from any industrialized nation everybody got hit with lead.
The question is degrees, most inner city wealthy property is above the smog line, there are so many things I can list but I am tired of class warfare for today.
The single greatest source of internal lead for that period was children eating paint chips because lead tastes sweet. Sure it was in the gasoline but the degree of exposure from just gas fumes as compared to living in rooms coated in it is significantly different.
So rich people have absolutely no painted surfaces in their homes, and burning leaded gasoline was NBD, got it.
You can tell the people worth blocking because they only ever go back and forth between extreme viewpoints, looking for any strawman they can stand up.
You were actually wrong here mate. They provided, correctly, the multiple sources of lead poisoning.
It wasn't kids eating the paint but the dust that was a big problem.
I don't know what comment you are reading but the bullshit I blocked has literally zero references anywhere in it.
So either you are a badly configured bot or a sockpuppet.
Welcome to the list, mate.
Sources as in causes of poisoning not references. Maybe work on your reading comprehension before you're pointlessly rude to people.
The Lemmy classic: say something stupid, double down, and get pissed when people call it out.
or both
