I recall someone doing the math on this and demonstrated that spending decades next to a wifi router exposed you to as much radiation as being outside in the sun for a few minutes.

Einstein won the Nobel a hundred years ago proving that light works in chunks called photons. If a photon needs frequency v to ionize an atom, then you can shine frequency v/2 on it for years if you want — it will never ionize the atom. This is because the energy from the lower frequency light doesn’t “build up” in the atom until the electron is kicked out. The photon must have the correct amount of energy needed to interact with the electron and eject it. Otherwise, nothing happens.
So it might be true that the overall radiation exposure from WiFi in terms of total energy might be equivalent in a few years to solar energy received in a few minutes, but the physical impact is not equivalent. Sunlight contains ionizing radiation (hence sunscreen) while WiFi routers do not emit ionizing radiation. You can sit next to a router for your whole life and it will be fine. Maybe if you had a super powerful router, you’d start to worry about thermal radiation since WiFi sits in the microwave part of the spectrum.
You receive far more radiation from the heat sources and light sources in your home (separately, not combined!), than from wifi 😱
So it's kinda like I DO go outside!
Remember when people used to claim cellphones would cause a rise in brain cancer? It used to be repeated constantly in the early 2000s on "real" news channels.
Remember when "4G LTE" was going to spike cancer rates? Same for 5G.
Total clown shit. In many ways I don't blame average hogs for believing insane shit like vaccines are bad or don't do anything. They've been lied to so many times about everything else. Now we have a professionally bad liar as the health guy and Congress (democrats obviously) were last seen spinning in their chairs going "Uh, what can we do? Guess we'll do nothing!"
I guess there will be no attempts at third parties either for mid terms or even probably for next presidential election. Everyone is just lying down in the highway and waiting for the inevitable.
The venn diagram between people who held and loudly expressed these beliefs tended and tend to be defenders of people right to smoke if they want to.
@Grok is this true? And how do we kill the sun?
Just switch it with a black hole of equal mass really fast and hope nobody notices
Replace it with a cooler temperature bulb.
that will just make it brighter and bluer, we want it out not cold
Yes, the sun is a very strong source of radiation in comparison to wifi signals, and long-term exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer. This is why the countries with the highest rates of skin cancer are Australia and Israel, whose population's white skin is not adapted to the higher rates of sunlight in these regions compared to the ancestral homeland of white people. These diseases are caused by the sun's rays; in other words, it is because the sun is bright that it is dangerously radioactive. This is why the only solution to save white populations from skin cancer is to replace our current bright sun with a black sun.

Where's Sirhan Sirhan Jr. when you need him?
I'm starting to think Sirhan Sirhan was a time traveller who went mad from the time travel process and targetted the wrong rfk.
I knew a guy who believed this. He worked in radiology.
I once met a former radiochemist who claimed he could feel radiation. Similar to anti-vax nurses, certain people can have been directly taught all the things that would debunk their crank shit and keep those beliefs anyway.
I mean, I guess you can feel it at high enough doses

At a certain point, these people become so convinced that they have the "special secret" that any evidence against their position only reinforces it, because why would people try to disprove them so hard unless they are right?
Anti-vax nurses are pretty common where I am from. Tbh they are the whole „dunning-kruger effect“ personified, doesn’t help that there is a idealistic class tension narrative between the „soyboy arrogant doctor“ and the „experienced working class nurse“
I knew a guy like this and he was getting his PhD in physics dealing with xrays to non-destructively test materials for cracks and other crazy shit.
This explains why hardcore gamers are so much smarter than casual gamers. The hardcore gamers are using ethernet cables while the casuals have fried their brains with wifi microwaves.
Casual gamers have just forgotten all the racial slurs due to years of wifi abuse
This is going to be used to make sure that only "government approved" wifi is allowed, and in turn, is also just going to be used to censor the internet so Americans can't actually escape their media bubble. And the hogs will go wild for it, despite claiming to love freezepeach and hating when the government does stuff.
love freezepeach

When Joe Rogan manages to (inadvertently even) make you look like a moron, you are beyond help
When they couldn't get the president's daughter they started working their way down the list. It may shock you to hear this, but RFK Jr is only 23 years old.
I kind of want to see RFK jr. fanart where his head is a parasite from Parasyte: The Maxim, now.
You need a password to access your WiFi and barriers often need a password to bypass so obviously your blood brain barrier is getting your WiFi password and unlocking itself. Honestly it's just basic scienceology.
Quick, plug an ethernet cable into your phones!
Think Joe! I said 'radiation'! What is radiation measured in? Rads! What else is 'rad'? Radicals! As in: Radical Leftists! are hacking your brain! Q.E.D.
Fun fact, the Rad has been deprecated since the 80s and replaced with the Gray. Which makes this an even better joke because it'd be a classic Rogan "expert" guest who has no idea what the fuck they're talking about.

the internet is bad for you
I like my blood-brain barrier CLOSED thank you very much!😤
„All the toxins in my body”
Meanwhile my liver:
if this were true, they wouldn't sell imodium over the counter
Honestly it would probably be good if America banned wifi
I've seen enough from those yanks. Pull the plug 
Wait i thought this was a meme
Taking otc gaba supplements and switching on the wifi
i thought exposing yourself to harmful toxins made you into a super saiyan
A humble conspiratorial nutjob: there's a limit in my understanding of things that people doesn't know are true and I'm mature enough to admit my lack of expertise.
