Radon Alert - cancer causing radiation in whole of SA

[Wasabee!]

Millions of South Africans are exposed to radioactive radon gas in their homes and workplaces every day, as the naturally occurring gas escapes through cracks in the earth. The second leading cause of lung cancer in several countries, radon breaks down and when inhaled, decaying atoms emit alpha radiation that can damage the DNA. There are no safe levels of radon concentration. The United States Environmental Protection Agency emphasises any radon exposure has some risk of causing lung cancer.

As usual the national radiation regulator is still busy looking at the problem...

Most home sales in the US include a Radon test, and if confirmed the seller has to install an extraction system pulling out of the basement and discharging it at roof height.

Clickbait...

There is less risk in the average home, than from eating a banana.

Please be my guest. Tell the planet not to emit radon. See if it listens you.
Gun crime is also not caused by guns. It's caused by greed and criminals.

Lies. Gun crime is caused by people named Radon.

It's all about the tone. If it's off it's off.

Hard to see stupid as tongue in cheek if the tone is off. Then it's just stupid.
Comparing the tone of a message as being off to your avatar or the country is also not synonymous.

More likely to get cancer from nom nom here/

Why do we still use glyphosate?

Bread, pap and every gluten-free product (unless they're truly organic) are sprayed with glyphosate, which cannot be washed off.

Your problem is just that. Your approach is not clearly illogical, leftist or does not apply.
You are just mirroring a narrative of certain people and how fsckng stupid they are.
If it is indeed intended for entertainment value then you need to grow your talent of portraying your art.

Yet you fell for an obvious trope , do not mock if you are conveying my message in your first 2 lines .
I intend to entertain nobody but i do intend to see who gets it and who doesnt .

Dihydrogen Monoxide is also deadly and our daily intake is really concerning. We really should ban it.
