Comment on it's making the frickin frogs gay
slappypantsgo@lemm.ee 8 hours agoI don’t understand why idiots cannot admit that this is supposed to be an amusing exercise. It always has been and it has always been about superiority. Unearned superiority by worthless STEMbag dumbfucks who should be strapped into a rocket and fired directly into the sun.
Tricking your moral and intellectual superiors into thinking that a scary chemical is out there just to then reveal that it’s actually water is intellectual idiocy of the highest order. If bottom of the barrel worthless dumbfucks want to combat chemophobia, all you have to do is engage in education.

Let me be clear: I myself am not a big fan of “mock people and then pretend it’s about teaching them”. This is just being a scumbag.
But this is not meant to be that, or if it’s used by someone in this capacity, it’s a very poor laughing matter indeed.
It is good, however, as a conversation starter to bridge the gap. Meant not as mockery, but as an illustrative example to explain how we shouldn’t be afraid of “scary words chemists say”.
