      I think it’s like the FDA having just reasonable guidelines on how much UV you can safely be exposed to. RFKJR prolly thinks sun lotion prevents all the healthiness from the sun and crystallises your amygdala or something along those lines.

      It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.

        It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people.

        I mean, it halfway is:

        • “Sunscreen” – stuff with a decently high SPF rating – is a good thing that prevents cancer.

        • “Suntan lotion” – usually glorified coconut oil with fuck-all SPF rating – is a bad thing that harms people.

        • “Sunscreen lotion” – a confused amalgamation of the previous terms – is not a thing and only misleads people by conflating good things with harmful ones.

          This is not truth everywhere. Where I grew up suntan lotion is sunscreen.

      When was the last time your big FDA doctor told you to sun your butthole? Why would they hide that from you?
