Are there any aspects of modern life that are widespread but also harmful to health or mental development?

Caffeine?
>>
Caffeine is a symptom of what you're talking about.

>television and other eye-straining shit
>being sedentary in general
>toxic preservatives

Sugar

Caffeine makes you smarter and durable, as long as you do not have pre existing blood pressure problems then drinking it is as harmful as drinking clean water.

The only risk in modern life is third wave feminism.

Why are the people who have basically identical views to Muslim fundamentalists the ones who are most hostile to Islam? Saudi Arabia is exactly what you want you stupid faggot.

Fluoridated water. Seriously. These days even the American Dental Association advises against giving fluoridated water to infants.

Even at the levels in the US studies show it has a negative effect on IQ. Source: Harvard School of Public Health.

Why is the United States at the forefront of research and innovation then?

Alcohol.

It ain't the 20th century anymore. The party is over. Police spy state installed, creativity dying, paranoia rising with religiousity. Shiat, its looking like prewar Germany.

What does this post have to do with the one it is replying to?
>>
Traffic fumes, cause asthma
Pesticides, household chemicals, cause all kinds of shit.
Some vaccines. Read the word 'some', dick brains. And if you're still derping, go look up gardasil. It's a fucking abomination.
Sedentary lifestyles.
Income variation between the highest and the lowest in any society.

Don't argue me faggots, everything I mentioned has research and google is your friend.

Someone just post the periodic table of elements.

Yes.

All of them.

>you couldn't justify this post if you tried.
Not that guy, but I will take a shot at this.

>LGBT
Islam, or Islamic countries to say the least, are extremely homophobic. I wouldn't be surprised that in some countries you get beheaded for being gay/trans/whatever

Feminism
Women rights? Equality? HA!

>Modern artists
Don't have much experience in the matter, but growing up in a country with a decent % of Muslims they are generally anti-arts.

To summarize. Islam is the only things takong an active stance against these things. You hate and blame Islam for all of the world's problems, yet Islam is your last bastion of hope against LGBT, feminism, and modern artists(things that you hate)

Sorry that I prefer actual art that is complex and clearly shows emotion unlike that stupid cookie cutter crap you and everybody else likes.

Obesity.
Sedentary lifestyle.
Processed meat. Sugar, sweets, soda. Juice too (harmful for teeth). Margarine (transfats). Deep fried food.
Tobacco smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, of course.
Personal automobiles - air pollution, also car accidents are main source of external death, especially for youth and children.
Air pollution from coal power plants and factories, especially in developing countries like China.
Overuse of household chemicals.
For child mental development - single moms. Also helicopter parenting.
In the past - lead from leaded gasoline and paint, very bad for health, reduces IQ, even very small amount of lead in organism is harmful. Now banned.
>>
Maybe capitalism.

Okay senpai, you've got me interested.

How is that? Aren't the left over pharmaceuticals being urinated by an over-medicated populace in the under-filtered water supply more harmful to people?
In over 20% of the United States, the natural fluoridation meets or exceeds the national standard of artificial fluoridation. Wouldn't a gross deficiency in intelligence have been seen in these regions years ago?

- pollution in general, including noise and light pollution
- wage labor culture
- institutionalised schools
- the lack of need to physically exert oneself in daily life
- continuous staring at digital displays
- overly processed food
- fragmented and accelerated routine
>>
>>7956309
You actually made sense with the first few, but then you took a hard right off the overpass into kaczynskiville
>>
>>7957312
The digital displays bit is about deteriorating eyesight and the sleep cycle-disturbing effects of the blue light, not social commentary.
>>
Most habits listed aren't that bad for you, it's just overhyped bullshit designed to alarm people who think everything is bad for them.

>>7954922
>tobacco smoking

I hope people here realize that the lung cancer connection is mostly bullshit. Nuclear fallout is likely what causes it.
