If you recall I only mentioned that the LD50 of DDT on humans is relatively low. I did not claim that is has no effect. My point being that it wasn't because of the toxicity on humans that DDT was banned. I am not in any sense suggesting that DDT is safe; only that the original post is propaganda.
You said the meme was shit because it was anti-science and took a hard critical stance ignoring context and actual science that shows the meme is accurate
The meme isn't anti-science at all. The meme is about people questioning settled science. My point is that the science behind DDT is settled and that's why it was banned; NOT because it was questioned.
No, the science was settled when they showed how great it was by spraying up little girls skirts. When in fact, it was not settled
Now do you get it?
