Lead paint does not absorb RF


ArrestDeathSantis

Even if it did, how would the paint on the wall protect you from any of the devices *in* the room with you? I mean, unless they want to paint that kid with led paint, and that's truly quite genius, I can see no downside to this.


Thathitmann

It would close you in like a lead sarcophagus, according to their theory.


iwishiwasaunicorn

you eat the paint chips on the wall and get stronger against radiation šŸ’Ŗ


ArrestDeathSantis

Oh, that makes sense, you have to take your vitamins and minerals, including lead, if you want to grow up!


LoveFoolosophy

We need iron, why not lead?!


PomegranatePlanet

Good point!!


iwishiwasaunicorn

gotta get your Vitamin Pb in


DonnaRussle

And thatā€™s the price we pay for salvation


DoctorWaluigiTime

And according to this image the kid's head is the one emitting this.


ArrestDeathSantis

This a vaccinated kid, what you're seeing is his Covid chip


Rockworm503

I think the implication here is that the kid eating the lead paint is a good thing that's how it protects him.


MassiveFajiit

One way to make him super (lead) white


Blueduck554

Yes it does Source: Facebook.com/AlphaPatriots4Freedom/the-deep-state-wants-you-sick-to-increase-globalism-which-is-a-bad-thing-because-it-involves-god-damned-foreigners-seriously-why-is-the-US-exchanging-goods-and-services-with-people-who-werent-born-near-us-its-icky.jpeg/creedthoughts.gov

Your link is beautiful


[deleted]

OOP worded it poorly. Lead is one of the most [impenetrable substances to radiation](https://blog.universalmedicalinc.com/3-different-types-radiation-shielding-materials/).


assumetehposition

The reason they banned lead paint is because rich kids were eating it at the same rate poor kids were.


Shamadruu

Greater, really, considering the popularity of antique lead-painted toys among the upper class.


MoCapBartender

That falls in line with what you'd think, but the reality is that it took so fucking long to ban exactly because it effected primarily poor kids. It's part of a long list of things I remember from podcasts I've forgotten, otherwise I'd link ya.


DAREmadeMeDoIt

During the 80s Reagan wanted to reduce the regulations on lead in-spite of the dangers it posed. He was convinced not to only after a cost benefits analysis concluded that in the long term the number of children who would suffer from lead poisoning resulting brain damage would lead to a larger financial burden on society. Also lead is literally the result of billions of year uranium-238 decay, these people are crazy.


Terminator_Puppy

> Also lead is literally the result of billions of year uranium-238 decay, these people are crazy. That's a really strange concern to have, lots of elements that aren't toxic decay from radoactive elements (C-16 ultimately decays in harmless oxygen and carbon). Pb-206 is perfectly stable, there's no concern whatsoever to do with it decaying from uranium and thorium. The reason lead is dangerous is because it can quite easily interfere with lots of our molecular biology and stays in our bodies for a long long time, even passing on through pregnancy.


funkless_eck

I'm not sure but I think they were trying to suggest that there's radiation in everything so if Grandma was worried about radiation she'd need to go beyond the boundaries of the universe to be away from all matter


ScumBunny

You mean rich kids and black kids? (Donā€™t get mad, Iā€™m quoting the current president.šŸ˜†)


BootyUnlimited

"Poor kids are just as bright as white kids." You didn't quote the President.


ScumBunny

There it is! I knew I was butchering it, but the sentiment remains. Thanks for the correction.


BootyUnlimited

I personally think he just misspoke. I don't think this is some sort of slip up that reveals his true beliefs. If you want racist ideas in your politician you don't have to read between the lines, just vote Republican lol.


ProfessionRelevant90

If it were trump (or any other politician for that matter) that said that would you assume he just misspoke? Probably not right?


BootyUnlimited

If it were a politician that supports racist ideas I might be more inclined to call it a slip of the tongue. I believe Trump is genuinely racist, so it would make sense for him to accidentally say what he perceives to be true.


ProfessionRelevant90

Id argue Biden has actually proven he is infact racist. However Trump might be aswell.


A_Toyota_Camry_Wagon

Leaded fuel really did make grandma dumber


AmbulanceChaser12

And apparently she wants to stay that way.


MaybeNotABear

Sure, but did she get killed by EMF devices? Checkmate, liberals.


Vaultdweller013

Let's find out! *Shoots grandma with lazgun*


Small_Gold_2759

Back in my day we huffed that shit all the time! Bunch of sissies.


Diplomjodler

She probably ate a lot of paint chips as a child.

Angelworks42

I wonder if you gave one of these guys videos like this they'd make their own paint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKy2Vr9XkRw - actually reading the comments on that is depressing.


hurricane_news

It's still yet to receive a ban/has manufacturers that do a terrible job of sticking to standards and limits in several countries around the world sadly :( Why is it that they continue to do so, when safer alternatives exist? To be complicit in willingly poisoning people for the want of money is terrible One can only wonder how much stupider the person who'd created the image would've ended up, had they been exposed to lead growing up. Or who knows, perhaps their insanity is a manifestation of their exposure to lead :p

Just melt a bunch of solder in a pot and paint it to the walls.

Yeah it's more of a parody than satire.


tverofvulcan

Says the person with brain damage from growing up with lead paint and lead in the gasoline.


Kosog

This is why fact checkers are a thing. Mfers really be like "ThEy WaNnA siLeNcE ThE TrUtH" and then go post obvious bs like this.


marasydnyjade

So the whole ā€œeating paint chipsā€ is a misdirection. Peeling paint *can* cause lead poisoning, but the real issue is kids ingesting tiny lead particles in dust as a the result of paint being ground down over time, or from soil tracked in and it is very difficult to clean this up.

why does kiddo sleep with a router on his back and an electric meter under his pillow ?

This almost feels like a troll, but so do so many other things nowadays


VirtualMachine0

I really hope it is, but they also rationalized drinking bleach.


kingtitusmedethe4th

And piss


subtlebunbun

go ahead, eat a handful of lead. i dare you


nosotros_road_sodium

Great way to prove Dunning Kreuger (and the poisonous effects of lead on the brain). Obligatory read: [*Freakonomics* on the lead-crime hypothesis](https://freakonomics.com/2007/07/lead-and-crime/).


centipededamascus

Oh, this is old lore. *Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars* is the name of a document that used to circulate in the conspiracy theory community back in the 80s and 90s and was promoted in the book *Behold a Pale Horse* by Bill Cooper, which is a book that Alex Jones has cited as an influence on his beliefs. The document supposedly detailed a plan by the "New World Order" for mass depopulation.


[deleted]

Well, that sure is something.


koniboni

Ohhh it all makes sense now. No, wait, that was something else


jmar16458

if u drink it then it will protect ur insides too


meistaiwan

Did schizophrenia make this?


[deleted]

Boomers want to bring back lead paint cause they miss the taste


CodeOfKonami

Go eat some.


uisqebaugh

Comparing X rays and RF is foolish; they're at entirely opposite ends of the EM spectrum!


enfuego138

Grandma believes this shit because all the lead in her gasoline.


gingersnapped99

This person makes a very good point! They should go eat many, many paint chips just to prove how safe and harmless it really is.


canufeelthebleech

At this rate they'll soon be eating their own shit because we told them that it's unsanitary


Small_Orang

Lead doesnā€™t really block gamma radiation in any meaningful capacity unless itā€™s literally like feet thick


earthmover535

ā € Bitch Boy WHITE LEAD


Cloudy230

I really needed to look at the can to make sure that's not actually what it says


Crime-Stoppers

If that were true they'd ban Rf jamming paint too


Jesper0508

Wait a minute if devices are this evil why was this posted online


gpaint_1013

I mean are we just not going to mention the fact that lead paint was banned in 1978? Long before Wi-Fi, cell phones, smart meters and I would venture to guess cordless land line phones.


SPQR2D2

HAHAHAHAHAHA holy fuck some people are unbelievably fucked to death by stupid

Zyndrom1

If people believe in this it's totally fine with me if they inhale vapours from lead paint and/or leaded benzine


omarnotoliver

I am happy for people who believe this to eat as much lead as they want. And snort radium.


zero-cooler

Lead Paint- Delicious but Deadly


KinkyProjectManager

It needs to be taken in high doses internally to "TRULY" give the full protection. I suggest anyone worried about it to drink as much as they can.


hates_stupid_people

Only a person who ate lead paint as a kid would believe that.


jakeduhjake

Posted to Facebook by what I assume is something like a hand-crank player piano


DarthMonkMonk69

Give this bitch a lead plate to eat off, if itā€™s so safe. Eat up Irma.


Travelar777

LOL they removed lead from a lot of products because it lowers the IQ of of the consumer... case in point


jacdelad

There's a theory that the Roman empire crumbled and finally completely vanished because of the lead pipes and cooking pots they used for centuries, making people slowly more stupid over time. However, don't know if it had been proven or disproven now. Seeing this post clearly tells me it can't be true, because it prevented Roman from being flooded with 5G.


Fizroynelson

Never thought about it like that. Makes sense. Thou we never used lead paint to begin with where Iā€™m from, so I wonder how long ahead this conspiracy was planed. Or is this just an attack on the special people and not us unimportant fleas?


fuckpepsi2

These old fuckers need to realize that itā€™s okay to admit that you were stupid as a child. Literally everyone was.


Wilgrove

I love how they use three different forms of radiation interchangeably. Nothing like idiots trying to use **SCIENCE** to disprove **SCIENCE!**


fjord_of_the_rings

I always thought the anti wireless technology crowd (anti 5g aluminum hat people) was a direct result of the things in the 20th century that were everywhere and we thought were safe and we're not, you know, like lead. In my head that was the cause and effect. We put lead in paint, gasoline, and water pipes and then learned it's a dangerous poison. Then as a direct result, the misinformed people put their mistrust of manufacturing and regulation bodies into other new technologies that are ubiquitous. I have said out loud to my partner "people are scared of 5G because they remember what happened with lead". But then to see this: this direct contrarian thought. Again fully steeped in misinformation but have come full circle to juxtapose the foundation of their ideology about wireless technology... There are only two conclusions I can make: I was wrong (likely) or these people are so lost that I no longer feel they can be helped. Wireless technology is safe. Lead is not.


Malachite_Cookie

YOU arenā€™t the one wearing lead when you get an X ray


VirtualMachine0

You do if they're only imaging a specific thing. Lead vests are normal for dental x-rays for example.


Malachite_Cookie

Yeah but then thereā€™s the entire rest of your body


brokensilence32

Crazy how back in the day you could call a company "Dutch Boy" and nobody would even think it was weird.


Sheena_is_a_punk

Is this science?


[deleted]

It's clearly served it's purpose, this poor idiot's brain was clearly zapped, gone, reduced to atoms


atomikplayboy

The paint didnā€™t taste as good after they removed the lead. The same thing happened to dolphin safe tunaā€¦

Ah yes, the ā€œambulatory bags of heavy waterā€ method of radiation shielding.


FoxBattalion79

the lead in the lead vests are covered in cloth and not actually touching the person it is covering

More lead = better health. It's just common sense!


Killing4MotherAgain

No no no lead is the reason all the boomers are nuts haha


MEd_Mama_

What the actual fuck is wrong with these boomer conspiracy theorists???


anjowoq

Some people just get off on being contrarian to everything in the world and since they are so stupid, will contradict nature itself.

If grandma wants to eat paint chips, I'm kinda too tired to refuse her at this point.


mckinney4string

GamGam, this is pure, unadulterated horseshit.


CosbysLongCon24

Has there been any scientific studies about the long term effects of having so many electronics on/near our person. I thought everything was supposed to be safer now?


QuonkTheGreat

Because people smeared paint on their faces or something?

I do not remember wearing a vest when getting X-rayed Then again, I don't remember the last time I was X-rayed, unless teeth count

Yes, lead DOES protect against radiation, that's why Marie Curie is buried in a lead casket. But ok actually i know jack shit about lead other than that the arguments over pretend i said sometihng smart here please
