Isn't most sunscreen made with almost full natural ingredients anyways because we haven't been able to make anything better than the naturally protective extracts of plants
#prev tags i love you#prev tags ->#THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING ABOUT ARTIFICIAL STUFF#i hate it when people say something came 'from nature'#bc like. fucking everything comes from nature?? do you think theyre just spontaneously creating matter in labs?#the elements they use to make things all come from nature. they didnt just type in a fucking cheatcode and spawn sunscreen#they used natural elements to create the chemicals which make up the sunscreen and then combined them according to a recipe#oh you dont want anything thats made of chemicals? fucking die then i guess bc EVERYTHING is made of chemicals#your 100% organic apples are made of chemicals. your free range non-gmo uwu eggs are made of chemicals#air is made of chemicals. water is made of chemicals. YOU ARE MADE OF CHEMICALS#acting like anything thats made in a lab is 'fake' is so stupid. this is exactly like the lab-grown gems debate#putting natural elements together in a lab does not make the resulting product any less 'real' than if they had been combined in nature#on the same note. altering a strand of dna in a lab does not make the resulting product anymore dangerous#than if it had been altered through years of natural selection (which has already happened to almost every fruit and vegetable you eat)#yeah theres shitty corporations out there doing shitty things but the act of altering something in a lab is not what makes it dangerous#CAPITALISM is what makes it dangerous. corporations lying about the effects of their product for more money is what makes it dangerous#and they would just as easily copyright and sell an ~all natural~ dangerous plant if they thought it would make them money#you dont think plants can be copyrighted? the main issue with gmos IS that a large corporation is copyrighting plants#not that they put something in there to give you spidey powers or w/e the fuck people think will happen#anyways. rant over
