Where I live, we have periodic episodes of this stuff raining down from the clouds (possibly due to natural chemtrails), and we have to stay indoors until it passes.
At least 4,500 Americans per year die from hydroxyl acid exposure

Where I live it does that so often that many people from the area are known to just go outside and walk in it with no extra protection or shielding. Crazy in my opinion.

It’s alarming how much this chemical is found in high concentration in the tissues of human bodies.

I guess you could use a centrifuge to get it out, blending beforehand?

Spoiler alert IT IS CHEMTRAILS!! Wake up sheeple.

Everyone who drinks it will die.

Dihydrogen Monoxide can make your lungs shut down, killing you, and if gets into your blood it can cause your brain to swell, also killing you. Cancer, Coronavirus and Polio all thrive in environments rich in hydrogen monoxide. If a building’s foundations are exposed to dihydrogen monoxide it can lead to structural collapse, and it causes painful blistering and instant cell death if flesh is exposed to it in its gaseous form. Despite this, the food industry - clamouring for profits above all other considerations - uses dihydrogen monoxide throughout the food production process, meaning this dangerous chemical is present in almost all processed foods.

But I’d literally die without it.

Addiction. Oh you poor soul…
CareHare@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
Very addictive. People abstaining from it for 24 hours will crave it like nothing else.

Don’t try and justify your addiction to it!!!

we also die from lack or too much “dioxide” or dioxygen

No, those are just the withdrawal symptoms due to your addiction.

Its also a waste product from many industrial processes and can remain stable in the environment for millions of years!

You know the Grand Canyon? It was created due to Dihydrogen Monoxide destroying rocks. Imagine what it would do to your body.

The joke
Y’all talking about water right?
starman2112@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
It’s considered by chemists to be a universal solvent. It’s more acidic than bleach. And they want this stuff in our tap water!

Hydroxyl acid? That sounds even more dangerous than hydrogen hydroxide, which is a notoriously dangerous base!
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
only 4500? I’m sure hydroxil acid exposure plays a role in millions of deaths every year

Thats definitely convinced majority of americans who have seen it
Stomata@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
Just think it can kill thousands of people

This terrible chemical directly caused the pressure increase that lead to Chernobyl.
Klear@lemmy.world 3 days ago
It was used in some Auschwitz showers instead of Zyklon B.
neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 days ago
Alright let’s stop it here.
Btw there weren’t any gas showers, they were put into huge slaughterhouses that were then filled with Zyklon B.
Idk where the myth of the shower comes from.

Bro, have you seen what happens to metals when they are exposed for a prolonged period of time to dihydrogen monoxide?? This is crazy.
JuxtaposedJaguar@lemmy.ml 3 days ago
Pure DHMO is actually pretty inert. It’s only once you add ions of sodium (a highly reactive metal) and chlorine (a highly toxic gas) that it starts damaging metal.

A mixture of HDO and h2o.
