EPA to reduce regulations on PFAS/PFOA/C8 in tap water.
If you don't know what that means:
Basically it is proof positive that these people are either the most incompetent retards, or genuinely evil people, of all time. Out of all the retarded shit coming out of this agency - even more retarded than the regulations that make it more economical for automobile manufacturers to build gigantic diesel trucks with horrible MPG which have essentially strangled the compact pickup - this is one of the dumbest things I have ever heard of.
PFAS/PFOA/C8 are chemicals that have a half life of two to four years - which means that it takes 2-4 years to reduce the total amount currently present in your body by half - and have been linked in the largest blood sample study in history, of some 70 thousand people in West Virginia, to an increased risk of a myriad of different health complications, including cancer and birth defects.

The attorney Robert Bilott has been suing the DuPont chemical company for over 20 years now, which is where the study originates from. Basically sometimes in the 70s or 80s, DuPont just dumped a bunch of toxic shit into some WV town, and Bilott fucked them in the ass for it (but not before suffering the process as the punishment for 20 years). In 2017 they paid $671 million to 3,550 people whose health was identified as being affected by C8 in the 70 thousand strong blood test, and they paid - along with Chemours and Corteva - over $1 billion in 2024 over claims related to PFAS in public water systems.

Here is Bucky Bailey, whose mother worked at DuPont in Parkersburg WV in the early 80s. He was born in 1981 and yes this is a real image. He was born with a gimpy eye for no other reason than that DuPont wanted to keep selling Teflon manufactured with C8, and never reported any of their findings on the toxic nature of it.
Basically this is the most evil shit ever conceived. I implore you to contact your elected representatives and ask them what in the fuck they are thinking by letting the EPA reduce the regulations on these chemicals in drinking water.
Also watch the 2019 biopic Dark Waters if you want a slop movie version of this story.

On a more hilarious note, people are still "vandalizing" DuPont's wikipedia article to this day, but with 100% utterly true facts, which have been adjudicated in multiple courts of law.
