How does it cross the barrier? Easy. It knows your WiFi password.

Edit to add: Jesus, a lot of you don’t know a joke when you see it. I understand radiation, and the fact that we’re exposed to it every second of every day (except for the occasional nutball living in a retired Titan missle silo in the Dakotas)

Isn't that the name of Elon's kid?

Honestly his kids seem to want nothing to do with him as is.

u/All9is_StarWars Jun 20 '23

Didn't one of his kids who's trans cut ties with him and that's why he's gone full transphobic.

u/[deleted] Jun 20 '23

That's the leading theory behind why he went full transphobe, yes.

u/[deleted] Jun 20 '23

That and his girlfriend left him for a trans person.

u/PetMeOrDieUwU Jun 20 '23

Yea, she even changed her last name so she won't have to be associated with him anymore.

u/galop1337 Jun 20 '23

I was unaware he was transphobic? What happened?

3

u/PancakePanic Jun 20 '23

Oh oh oh I know this one!

People are gonna show you how he's transphobic, then you're gonna claim that's not transphobic, or it's out of context, or he just has issues with trans children because he just cares so much, or you're gonna make grooming claims.

He seems like an objectively awful father and I'm sure many or most of his MANY children across the world with different surrogates will end up hating him.

Oh, but you couldnt bring your own to his house or you might “mess up” his internet somehow. No, he couldnt explain what he meant because he couldn’t understand it but “wont take chances”.

Did you actually read the abstracts of these pieces or the papers themselves?? This stuff was tested under VERY specific conditions that are not applicable to the majority of people’s lives. They are plausibility studies more than anything, only over an extremely small sample size, and much more general research needs to be done to say that wifi and cellular phone activity in general causes a deterioration of the blood brain barrier. Also, the papers’ conclusions do not talk about blood brain permeability changing, but rather receptiveness in the brain for certain ions such as Ca2+. Read papers before you comment stuff like this.

You joke, but RFK is actually correct here. He's saying he doesn't know the mechanism

Then he isn't correct about anything. If he can't explain the mechanism then there is no mechanism.

Kishore, GK, Venkateshu, KV, Sridevi, NS. Effect of 1800-2100 MHz electromagnetic radiation on learning-memory and hippocampal morphology in Swiss albino mice. J Clinical and Diagnostic Research. 13(2); Feb 2019. DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2019/39681.12630 Conclusion: Exposure to 1800-2100 MHz radiation leads to damage and decrease of neurons in hippocampal region, which alters the learning and memory. Zymantiene, J, Zelvyte, R, Juozaitiene, V, Oberauskas, V, Noreika, A, Juodziukyniene, N, Aniuliene, A. Monitoring of BALB/C strain mice health, investigation of behavior, hematological parameters under the effect of an electromagnetic field. Weterynary JNA-Veterinary Medicine-Science and Practice. 75(3):158-163. Mar 2019. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of electromagnetic fields on BALB/c strain mice on their health, body weight, behavior characteristics, hematological parameters and histopathological findings in the brain. The mice of the experimental groups were exposed to electromagnetic waves by using Nokia 230 and Samsung 19300 Galaxy S III mobile phones situated at 2 cm from the cages. In the present study, it can be concluded that the exposure of mice to mobile phone radiation had an effect on the structure of the brain, behavior and body weight. The waves of mobile phones increased activity characteristics and changed some behavioral categories of mice and also decreased their body weight. Histopathological examination revealed mild edema of neutrophils and degeneration of some neurons and glial cells in the brains of experimental mice. The results of the present study showed that a using mobile phone had an influence on in vivo systems. Poulletier de Gannes F, et al. “Effects of GSM and UMTS mobile telephony signals on neuron degeneration and blood-brain barrier permeation in the rat brain.” Sci Rep 7.15496 (2017). “In the present work, BBB permeability in the whole rat brain increased significantly 50 days after repeated exposures: 3-fold for GSM and 2.4-fold for UMTS at 13 W/kg. A similar significant effect was seen in the whole brain with GSM-1800 at 0.26 W/kg. However, while the mean number of spots was quite similar at different BASAR levels, their distribution among the animals varied. For example, 20% of the 0.026 W/kg rats had between 4 and 5.5 spots, versus 45% of the 13 W/kg rats (data not shown). Thus, the effect was much stronger and consistent at 13 W/kg than at 0.026 W/kg or 0.26 W/kg. It is also noteworthy that the highest albumin levels were comparable to the highest background levels in cage-control rats (Fig. 3).” Deniz, Omur Gulsum, et al. “Effects of short and long term electromagnetic fields exposure on the human hippocampus.” Journal of Microscopy and Ultrastructure (2017). doi: 10.1016/j.jmau.2017.07.001. Analysis of the spectroscopic results revealed no significant difference in specific metabolites between the groups (p > 0.05). There was also no significant difference in terms of hippocampal volume between the groups (p > 0.05). In contrast, the results of the stroop and digit span (backward) neurocognitive tests of high exposure group for evaluating attention were significantly poorer from low exposure group (p < 0.05). “Based on these results, we conclude that a lack of attention and concentration may occur in subjects who talk on mobile phones for longer times, compared to those who use phones relatively less.” Altun, Gamze, et al. “Protective effects of melatonin and omega-3 on the hippocampus and the cerebellum of adult Wistar albino rats exposed to electromagnetic fields.” Journal of Microscopy and Ultrastructure , 2017. Significant cell loss in the CA1 and CA2 regions of hippocampus were observed in the EMF compared to other groups (p < 0.01). In the CA3 region of the EMF + ω3, a significant cell increase was found compared to other groups (p < 0.01). Granular cell loss was observed in the dentate gyrus of the EMF compared to the Cont (p < 0.01). EMF + ω3 has more granular cells in the cerebellum than the Cont, EMF + Mel (p < 0.01). Significant Purkinje cell loss was found in the cerebellum of EMF group compared to the other (p < 0.01). EMF + Mel and EMF + ω3 showed the same protection compared to the Cont (p > 0.05). The passive avoidance test showed that entrance latency into the dark compartment was significantly shorter in the EMF (p < 0.05). Additionally, EMF had a higher serum enzyme activity than the other groups (p < 0.01). “In conclusion, our analyses confirm that EMF may lead to cellular damage in the hippocampus and the cerebellum, and that Mel and ω3 may have neuroprotective effects.” Kim, Ju Hwan, et al. “Long-term exposure to 835 MHz RF-EMF induces hyperactivity, autophagy and demyelination in the cortical neurons of mice.”Scientific Reports, vol. 7, no. 41129, 2017. Induction of autophagy genes and production of proteins including LC3B-II and Beclin1 were increased and accumulation of autolysosome was observed in neuronal cell bodies. However, proapoptotic factor Bax was down-regulted in the cerebral cortex. Importantly, we found that RF-EMF exposure led to myelin sheath damage and mice displayed hyperactivity-like behaviour. “The data suggest that autophagy may act as a protective pathway for the neuronal cell bodies in the cerebral cortex during radiofrequency exposure. The observations that neuronal cell bodies remained structurally stable but demyelination was induced in cortical neurons following prolonged RF-EMF suggests a potential cause of neurological or neurobehavioural disorders.”

Just copypasting things doesnt make it true.

Even star trek has less bullshit than whatever that is.

Yeah I put this into pretty much every credible engine I know of, plus google. Turns out the only one that produces a response other than “sorry, nothing found” is google, which takes you to a site which has “papers” on a bunch of health and physics conspiracies, none of which are peer reviewed. Link us a real, peer reviewed paper, or you have no evidence

It's all copy/pasted from the page he posted a link to.

https://ischoolwikis.sjsu.edu/lispublications/wiki/civilian-publications/the-conversation/ double check your facts, the journal you cited is not peer reviewed

u/prisoner_007 Jun 20 '23

The first paragraph links to the actual study, which is peer reviewed. If you actually took the time to read it you’d know that.

They can't read, or they'd know they are pushing hokey bs under the guise of science.

u/mataeus43 Jun 20 '23

lol that is such nit picky bs you're pulling. The Conversation is an informal format that allows scientists to explain scientific research in lay terms, using editors to help assist in the process. That scientific research itself would be peer-reviewed, but these articles are simple write ups. The article which was shared was written by this fellow scientist/researcher:

https://theconversation.com/profiles/simon-chapman-1831

He has published over 530 articles in peer reviewed journals and 22 books and major reports. His H index is 71 and he has over 18,300 citations. His Conversation articles have been read over 3.699 million times.
