    this crazy fuck is right. hormones and other substances released in the water/dumped in the water change the genetics of animals living there. but yes cOnsPirAcY tHeoRy… until it’s affecting you it’s all a joke

      Also it’s only a conspiracy if there’s intentional disregard for the best interests of people whom you are intentionally hiding information from. Where I live they were pumping out hormones into the river all the way back into the 60s, screwing up fish life. But it’s because they were ignorant and dumb. This is from the same time when the government had a campaign for people to weigh down garbage with rocks before throwing it in the sea, because it’s unsightly when it floats.

      Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
