Your complete lack of an argument doesn’t make you sound any smarter
“Antibacterial” soaps aren’t strictly banned in Europe, but many of the ingredients used in antibacterial soaps in the US are. Sorry these dense mfs giving you grief
The term “anti-bacterial” is a marketing term. It doesn’t indicate anything about the specific ingredients in a product. For example, triclosan and benzalkonium chloride are banned in hand soaps in the EU but in wide use in the US. Products in both regions can be marketed as “anti-bacterial” but contain completely different ingredients. You’re willfully ignoring what I first said while falling head over heels for product marketing and implying I’m the one who’s not smart lmao
Regardless of the marketing term “anti-bacterial” on the label, there are quite a few specific ingredients in this area that are banned in the EU but in wide use in the US.

Wow, that was a huge leap there. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with not wanting to seek an intimate relationship with someone in your established circles. Like dating someone at work, this can come with significant social risk.

protist@mander.xyzto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are dating apps really as bad as people say?English7·19 hours agoThey’re not the best, but there isn’t a reason not to try if it interests you. A good friend of mine in his mid-40s was divorced from his wife and went on Bumble about a year and a half ago. He went on a handful of dates and only a couple months in met his new girlfriend. They’ve been together a year now, they’re doing well and she’s great. Point is there are lots of success stories.
We do live in a decent sized city, where there are a lot of fish in the sea.
Was Desert Storm World War 3? Or the Vietnam War? Or the Korean War? Or Russia’s invasion of Ukraine? Or the US’s invasion of Afghanistan? Or the US’s second invasion of Iraq? People constantly claiming “here comes World War 3!” makes it sound like you’re excited for that, which is depressing. The reality is it’s not World War 3, and world geopolitics do not portend another war on the horizon of the same magnitude as World War 2.

US naval vessels themselves will become targets, and there would likely be some costly US losses. Regardless, the increased risk of traversing the strait will have an immediate impact on oil prices, even if no ships are actually blocked
