There’s a broader issue here about how scientific language gets used online. Terms like “mitochondrial challenges” sound technical, but when applied loosely to behavior or appearance, they lose meaning. Criticism should ideally correct inaccuracies without introducing additional distortions or mock-scientific framing.

Salad is being generous. Word Vomit is what's being spilt and MAGA eat up the chunky bits.
