Reading Lost Connections made me lose trust on FDA, Watching You Don’t Know Nicotine made me lose trust on WHO, I dunno but the more I delve deeper into Health Science the more I divert to popular opinions, am I getting insane or the world is?, is my beliefs an opinion or a prejudice?, am I overeducated or semiliterate?
your young, the more you know, the more you realize that the world is not a fairytale.
take for example yung phone na gamit mo, did it cross to your mind yung components niyan most likely mula sa slave labor ng tsina and those rare minerals from minings like sa africa na pag-aari ng mga warlords.

yes I’m aware of such malpractices, I also knew malpractices in other industry like porn and fast fashion, In fast fashion I learned a lot of companies are getting labor for less wage in 3rd countries and the proletariats environment is also physically abusive I watched it in “The True Cost”, Age for me is also irrelevant imho
i mean about you being young, mas marami ka pang time para malaman ang dark side ng reality, pero life also has a bright side din naman, so don’t stress yourself too much.
