    I had a lady tell me that sunscreen gives you skin cancer. She was a nurse that quit during COVID because she refused the vaccine. That was a miserable conversation.

      There is this football player, very famous, he was on the wining world cup team. That’s a solar cream negationist.

      He has videos saying that people needs to make solar callus taking sun all the time and they won’t get cancer.

      If you ask me he should be in jail, he is going surely to cause many deaths.

      But here we are, the new crazy people bogus is that solar cream is somehow something bad.

        Is… that study not about damaging DNA if inhaled? I do not often inhale sunscreen.

        Plus, DHA is used for tanning. Not exactly sunscreen.

          it’s used in tanning lotions. If you smear chemicals on your skin, they get ingested.

          Crush some garlic in the palm of your hand. You’ll taste garlic.

            Yeah, I’m not using tanning lotion. I’m not talking about that. And they might get ingested- I don’t… really agree with that, but even if that’s true they won’t get inhaled.
