Asbestos is a sad story tbh. It’s an amazing engineering material, incredible in any high heat application, resilient, strong, and insulating. It’s actually great. Aside from that tiny, itsy bitsy little problem of it causing cancer in anyone that handles it…
cancel culture has gone too far

And CFCs: a really great refrigerant but it just also loves reacting with stratospheric ozone! Oddly enough, both commercialized by the same very evil man en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Midgley_Jr. 
 
- henfredemars@infosec.pub 1 year ago- Can’t say asbestos without “best.” 
- jeffw@lemmy.world 1 year ago- First they took your gas stoves, then they took your asbestos!! What’s next??? - ItsAFake@lemmus.org 1 year ago- Next thing they’ll be coming for my lead based paints! 
- BakerBagel@midwest.social 1 year ago- The gas oven thing was so dumb because there was never even any mention of banning gas ovens and stoves. They just said that the fumes cause severe breathing issues and the ventilation for most gomes was drastically insufficient. Literally all that you have to do os install a proper fume hood. Most home just have a fam button on the microwave anove the range that blows air behind the cabinets - RestrictedAccount@lemmy.world 1 year ago- Sorry. There are such people as lefty extremists and thy are not moderates at heart. This is why we can’t have nice things. - Chicago is still trying to ban them. New York already has. 
 
- Mr_Fish@lemmy.world 1 year ago- Don’t you date touch my leaded fuel 
 
- Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 1 year ago- CFC is back on the menu, bois 
- hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year ago- filling my house with asbestos to own the libs 😎 
- gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago- You know what? Considering what we can scientifically prove about the impacts of asbestos exposure… if they’re inclined to dive into the shallow end of the gene pool, who are we to stop them? 
- urfavlaura@lemmy.ml 1 year ago- *cancer culture 
- niktemadur@lemmy.world 1 year ago- Yeah, well guess what - during the four years it squatted in the White House, the orange cock holster lifted restrictions on the use of asbestos in construction.
