Re: 'Also "common chemical sunscreen ingredients cause cancer" is a common FUD trope. Sunscreen reduces cancer mortality, full stop. Each person's circumstances vary based on their daily habits, geography, and personal/familial history.'

You didn't actually prove anything with your counter point here, as confident as you are - which is as confident to whom you're responding to.

At this level of ideological-indoctrination, it seems each person would have to actually participate [run and observe them] in the trials to see if certain ingredients cause an increase in rates of cancer.

How else do people indoctrinated into a belief, believing they simply know better - and must be right, than have people repeat clinical trials on animal models [or better]? Genuine question.
