Yeah, it's either his real opinion (which it is) or he's pushing way too hard for a 'joke' and there'll be enough people who follow this in earnest that it's just as damaging, because people are loving stupid.

Wash your goddamned hands you loving garbage person.

I work with a bunch of infectious disease doctors, one of whom I have seen leaving the stall without washing his hands on a regular basis. I pretty much wash my hands compulsively knowing what I'm getting in regular contact with through research.

You actually have a microfauna of organisms on your skin and if you constantly sanitize or wash you wipe it out and then bad poo poo can grow. I know a few MDs and nurse practitioners who got HPV, warts, MRSA, whatever on their hands because they were compulsively sanitizing them all day.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

you know like warts & hpv are viruses, that are not really living things and just whenever they bump into a suitable cell they jab their dna into it right

maybe i'm wrong but I don' know of anything that eats a virus and I don't know that you would be ecologically protected from viruses by not washing your hands

also has anyone considered that the actual casuse of sickness is night airs???

The layer of oils your skin produces is the protection. It's a barrier that keeps your skin surface from drying out, breaking and allowing infections to get in.

You should still uh wash your hands after you poo poo.

sickness isn't because you have dry skin it's because of evil spirits and the envy of witches

Look everyone, it's autism man where everything in his world is all or nothing. The point is you should stop touching loving everything with your grubby paws so you don't have to constantly disinfect your hands.

Fox news man knows that you only get diseases from being in a foul miasma (generated of course by smelly immigrants) and can only be cured by bloodletting and rebalancing your humors.

Really if you just follow the homeopathic principles, you'll be very safe and healthy. A little bit of anything has great effect - a tiny bit of filth, disease or poop is bad news!

Thanks to the homeopathic science however we have the perfect way to counteract these dangers. Live in filth, literally eat poo poo and bathe in disease and you will be practically immune.
