Poison Conspiracy Fraud #8: Nobody Poisoned With Cadmium
“No Cadmium Poison Cases in 1977!” One of the single most convincing pieces of history that confirms how the P-Con can’t possibly be true is the simple fact that doctors were only beginning to understand how cadmium impacted the body in 1977. In the early 1900’s the water supply inContinue Reading

Written in response to Kaunteya Das’s letter by Antardwip das
Kaunteya Das wrote: Recently, Sarva-drik Prabhu wrote: “One small request . . . Best to keep the discussion civil.
