I saw an ad on Facebook not too many hours ago, which claimed that a link to non-Hodgkins lymphoma was found from glyphosate. That of itself doesn’t tell me anything useful: a compound found in celery can lead to skin cancer, yet nobody’s trying to ban or sue over celery. How was the glyphosate dose incurred? How severe was it?

Correlation is not causation.

Except that it didn’t say anything about “correlation.”

That said, scientific thought as it used to be honored is going badly downhill with the acceptance of “global warmism” theories (we do not have knowledge of enough factors to draw the alleged conclusions), and it would not be surprising to see other such thought declining too.
