see, it's not that "we need to take measures to prevent white men from getting radicalized instead of assuming the ones who do were always lost cases anyway" is not a valid concern, but the solution is not tone policing women and bipoc who call them out on being an oppressor class, its establishing systemic safeguards against getting men preyed on by grifters who will offer simple solutions to their sense of alienation (which is not exclusive to white men) in the form of putting those pesky minorities back in their place

on november 19, 2024 the united states food and drug administration (FDA) published a warning letter written earlier in the month to tom's of maine for being fucking disgusting and not adequately responding to accusations of being fucking disgusting. the FDA found black mold-like substances growing around production equipment as well as water contaminated with disease-causing bacteria.

that contaminated water was used both for cleaning equipment and as an ingredient in toothpaste.

here are some snippets from the FDA letter.

Your firm produced (b)(4) water and used it as a component in your OTC drug products and as a final rinse after equipment cleaning. A. You recovered Pseudomonas aeruginosa in multiple (b)(4) water samples, from June 2021 to October 2022. This water was used to manufacture Tom’s Simply White Clean Mint Paste, batch (b)(4), and for the final rinse of numerous equipment cleaning processes. None of these incidents were investigated to assess product impact and water system performance. B. You also reported multiple incidents where too numerous to count (TNTC) Ralstonia insidiosa was recovered from water points of use. Your investigations included testing of new samples collected at least 4 days after the initial sampling. Batches manufactured after these incidents were released based on the microbial testing of the finished OTC product despite the quality of the water used as a component or to clean the equipment. C. You recovered gram-negative cocco-bacilli Paracoccus yeei in your OTC finished product, Wicked Cool! Anticavity Toothpaste, batch 3025UST11B. Your investigation concluded, without sufficient justification, that the growth was due to sample contamination. The batch was released based on retest results.

...

Your complaint procedure is inadequate because not all quality related issues are investigated.

...

For example, approximately 400 complaints related to odor, color, and taste in your toothpaste products, including those for children, were not investigated. These complaints are not investigated because your procedure requires an investigation only if a trend is identified.

and they ignored HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS, AT LEAST. including in products meant for children!

and most importantly, despite how many details are in the FDA warning letter, it explicitly states the list of violations is not comprehensive. this is not everything tom's of maine has fucked up, ignored, or blatantly tried to sweep under the rug.

you can find the whole FDA warning letter here.

you may note in the CBS article that tom's of maine basically said they investigated themselves and found nothing wrong using their own investigation process. considering their investigation process itself is under scrutiny by the FDA, take their response with a grain of salt.

if you use tom's of maine toothpaste, you might want to consider using something else, especially if your immune system is not the best. the FDA letter is pretty damning. these are choices that were made on purpose to prioritize profit over safety. I am definitely going to think twice before buying anything from them from now on.

tom's of maine is owned by colgate-palmolive.

this is not a recall. tom's of maine products potentially made using contaminated water, including those aimed at children, remain on shelves.

they should invent a way to self destruct that doesn't have any permanent consequences. a way to crash your car in a fiery wreck and walk away unharmed. a way to tear your organs out of your chest and be whole again by the morning like prometheus. a cigarette that burns your lungs but not your lifespan.

sorry i woke up in my rantsona. but like seriously isn't it fucking twisted that every child in almost every country are basically legal property of their parents. like their parents have complete control over where they can go, who they can talk to, which words out of their mouth are truth or lies; they're allowed, encouraged even, to be the sole interface by which the child connects to everything else in this world. like isnt that extraordinary. like how is it a mystery to anyone that children are constantly dying under parental abuse or growing up into utterly dysfunctional traumatised adults. why are we talking about these nebulous narratives of "the unstoppable and nuanced cycle of abuse" instead of looking straight at the reality we've built specifically for this purpose

[panhasablog]

Also, like, I'm sorry but if you've set up a free shelter, and people refuse to go because sleeping on the sidewalk under a freeway bridge is more pleasant, that's fucking on you, that's not on them.

You really can't compete with sleeping under the overpass so you are going to force people into shelter?

Unspeakably cruel and stupid.

“Bat swinging at wasp nest” post but I cannot be nice about astrology people. No you did not find the one good or cute or quirky way to believe the quality of someone’s character is biologically pre-determined. Just because you found a way to not base it on race or ethnicity or gender does not make judging someone’s character on an innate and uncontrolled attribute suddenly teehee fine.

I’m even more baffled by the people going “it’s just fun!” “It’s just a hobby!!” Sure if it was something harmless. It’s not. We are quite literally talking about how you intend to judge, treat, view, respect, and interact with someone entirely differently based on an inherent trait. How are you not aghast? How are you not embarrassed? Why are you so insistent on needing to operate on a hierarchy of pre-determined character judgement?

I love my people and it's amazing to see so many of us turn up today, but it's like herding very friendly cats 😂

you can discuss the problems within academia literally forever and you probably should but “historians are trying to keep information from you” is always going to be an anti-intellectual, reactionary opinion, sorry, literally no way around that
