A political discussion? Stop it! I want science.Who is making exposure to glyphosate/POEA/Browndown more complex than it needs to be? Does Roundup elevate risk of NHL, Hairy Cell leukemia CKD or not? Evidence so far indicates it is "a probable human carcinogen"
In what sense? I think it gives some context to the fact that "probable carcinogen" is not a particularly informative category for the average person, which is often missing from alarmist arguments on twitter

Because you're not writing in that tweet that the classification "probable carcinogen" is not informative. You write that it's not scary. Which is a completely different statement.

I think one follows the other. The fear comes from the information conveyed - the idea that you'll get cancer if you're exposed to the 2a substance - but the reality is that there is little information to be gleaned from this fact and thus little fear
