California government has a new proposal that could ban thousands of chemicals, even if they are natural.

California is, of course, famously anti-science. The reason lawyers who wanted to sue over weedkillers filed in San Francisco is because it is the most anti-science city in America's most anti-science state. And it worked. Juries readily believe that plants are just tiny green people so a weedkiller that only acts on a pathway not found in humans at all can still somehow cause human cancer. Even if you only sprayed it one time.

But lawyers can never create anything, only destroy in vampiric fashion, so they always need new hosts. That is why one of the best friends of predatorts, California Assemblymember Nick Schultz (D-Burbank), is proposing to ban even more science. No evidence needed. Well, no scientific evidence needed. Epidemiology can correlate anything to anything if the check clears, which is why California has 80,000 bizarre Prop 65 cancer warnings on products everyone knows is harmless.

You will get sued if you don't.

Schultz wants to ban Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), heavily marketed as Forever Chemicals™ by the same anti-science activists who claimed Colony Collapse Disorder due to neonicotinoid seed treatments were causing a food web collapse. Even though honeybees basically only pollinate almonds, and those are overwhelmingly rented and shipped on trucks to farms.

In California. Which subsidizes almond farmers unnaturally renting bees that are shipped all over the state for a luxury crop no one needs.



Science doesn't matter, money does, and the lawyers who run Environmental Working Group can't really sue unless someone first makes the product illegal, despite the reality that PFAS are 12,000 chemicals, all but seven found in nature. How will activists know which are which?

They won't. To lawyers, any detection of any pathogen is proof of pathology. To predatorts and gullible juries, the dose does not make the poison, a molecule is the same as an overdose.

So Assemblyman Schultz is the recipient of political donations or is what the Soviets called a "useful idiot" for their cause. Because no one who understands science believes ever can, ever have, or ever will harmed anyone.

In California, that does not matter.
