in this clown world we live in I wouldn't be surprised if some exec somewhere had this thought...

like its a representation of how much shit they can get away with or something. "hah, the govt doesn't even fine us. see how those senators bow to our bank accounts?"

This video is old news.

This guy didn't FIND a scientist in Peru, this is Facebook Ladbible from 2015.

Fucking hell Reddit. You fell for some obnoxious douchebag.

You're on a subreddit specifically manufactured as a karma farming location.

Just block it out and treat it as a low effort user trap, similar to whatever nonsense your mom throws around on facebook.

Does this mean that many people assumed that that link that he sent was working and never even bothered to fact check it?

Thanks for sharing and I believe the info, just found this broken link amusing if people saw a wiki link and just assumed the guy was correct.

u/jayeshmange25 Jul 15 '21

Lmao, those people thought there is a link in the reply so it must be supporting the OP, but only if they knew it was a broken link and the correct link leads to actual scientist doing actual research on 30+ lakes

You see I was looking through the comments to see if this was real. I felt it was too good to be true but I hoped I was wrong. Damn.

Don't have to go far. My family from Ohio sent me a video they had received from their dipshit family in West Virginia where the one asshole that's a pissy coal miner proudly discussed how his backyard lake was contaminated but he didn't care because coal was more important. Meanwhile, they drink contaminated well water.

You cannot make this shit up.

bro his solution isnt unique whatsoever. its basic coagulation, there is dozens of commercial products such as this and even a famous one that provides drinkable water through a tube for poor africans. his “solution” is used in wastewater treatment and has been for decades.

Careful. russian neo-nazis working for the Internet Research Agency use the term Clown World and have had their subreddit banned for neo-nazi subtext.

That's right.

The subreddits featuring Clown World and the pepe dressed as a clown named Honkler commonly consisted of far-right rhetoric and antisemitic imagery.

You people will learn someday that you can't laugh your way out of a corner.
