Doctor Zoidberg

I dunno, dude. Zoidberg has an understanding of human anatomy that's tenuous at best, and a lot of his medical advice is completely disastrous. Honestly, if he were in a government health official position, I'm not sure he'd really do any better. Possibly much worse.

Kennedy’s action comes at a time when many adherents of his Make America Healthy Again movement have adopted regular sun exposure as a core principle of wellness, with social media influencers encouraging followers to abandon sunscreen and build up their “solar callus,” or sun tolerance, instead.

Even if this doesn’t give you cancer, it’ll make you look like a California Raisin. In one of Lab Muffin’s videos (chemistry PhD who makes educational videos about beauty/skincare product misinformation), she has a great photo of an older woman who has put sunscreen on her face but not neck for decades, and it looked like they belonged to two different people. Same if you’ve ever seen photos of old truckers that don’t use sunscreen on their window side arm.

TL;DR: UV radiation bad. Protect yourself from the giant nuclear explosion in the sky. If you don’t like sunscreen, use a sun jacket or anything long sleeved with a good UPF rating.

Sunscreen on face but not neck

Yeah these people have constant access to the internet yet are entirely unable to spend 4 seconds on it to look up picture of middle-aged highland folks who are working in the sun all day.

It's like his goal is to get as many people sick from as many things as possible. No vaccines, red meat heavy diet and suntanning beds. What's next cigarettes for kids?

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

To build up their lung callus, for when they'll get work in the coal mines.

his goal is to make people look like him, his skin all leathery from UV damage, or pleathery.

So... kids shouldn't have the right to their own personal expression, but they should have the right to give themselves cancer. Got it. Makes perfect sense.

Sooooooo, trump I get. He's a narcisist. That's why he does the things he does. He's also putins bitch. So he tries to destroy america, because putin is obsessed with the cold war.

The rest of the crew are just desprate needy sycophants, who do nothing but try to gobble up as much attention and power as possible.

But RFKjr? Him I don't get. It's like he's an 80s saturday morning cartoon villain. He would fit right in alongside Cobra, or CLAW, or being one of Jokers henchmen.

I'm honestly expecting him at some point to encourage people to drink bleach.

He's just really fucking stupid.

.... Why though? Was it the big suntan bed conglomerate that got to him and paid him to make that legal?

I'm kidding of course but ... Why do this? I don't get it. We all know sun tan beds are bad, why allow kids?

In the same way that most tattoo artists won't do kids, even in states where it's legal with parental consent, most salons won't let kids tan--at least I hope.

[–] popekingjoe@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes. Hook em while they're young. Just like another major source of cancer: cigarettes.
