I made this connection a month ago - that a couple of generations of humans grew up breathing exhaust from leaded gasoline and dust from lead paint and had a bit of an epiphany about the state of the world.
Dude. As a whole the world is stupider by several tens of IQ points solely in specifically due to lead poisoning.
Lead poisoning is the single most detrimental effect ever experienced by humanity so very few people even understand that!
They've been poisoning people with lead since before Roman times. They used to make drinking glasses from lead
Lead poisoning is the single most detrimental effect experienced by humanity, so far.
Wait til they find out what microplastics do to us, if we last long enough to get the results on that shit.
Makes me wonder if we're not undergoing something similar. I imagine that a lot of people didn't know the effects it'd have on them when those things were first introduced
Plastics are the modern lead.
