Atrazine - 'Turning frogs ghay ?'
[Armstrong Economics] Another conspiracy theory debunked.

Alex Jones warned us long ago the government "was making the frogs gay," and he was correct, but his delivery did not go over well.

Robert F. Kennedy brought up atrazine while on the Joe Rogan podcast and explained the very serious matter. Atrazine is a legal herbicide used to kill weeds in the US. Farmers in the US are also permitted to use Atrazine to repel pests.

This chemical has been linked to leukemia, lymphoma, and numerous cancers.

It is banned throughout the world, but America permits its usage and insists it is safe. Atrazine has become the most commonly found chemical in US drinking water.

#3 Atrazine does it's job pretty well because it indeed is some nasty stuff. I do think that it was misused and overused in the past, but farmers are being much more careful with it these days.

#7 Geeesh, sorry Besoeker, totally zoned out and missed your post at #2. Please delete my post (#6).

Think nothing of it. Better to get it double posted than memory holed by our betters.
