Title of your link:

Liquid Laundry Detergent Pods Pose Lethal Risk for Adults With Dementia

For all those teenagers with dementia XD

Did you know that cognitively delayed teenagers exist?

Check real quick - I think “gullible” is written on your ceiling. Watch out, I hear human traffickers are putting fentanyl laced roses on car doors.

Okay, so I posted initially to correct your false statement that:

Children were never eating tide pods either.

What you said was demonstrably false.

You then tried to walk that back by saying those ingestions were unintentional and posted a link to a consumer reports article about adults with dementia eating tide pods.

Now you are following it up by implying it applies to cognitively delayed teenagers.

Are you saying that your initial statement about children never eating tide pods is true based on this?

Because there are actual videos of (probably) non-cognitively delayed teenagers doing this.

I don't understand why you've chosen this hill to die on. Is this one of those things where you're so sure you're right you can't admit you were wrong? :o
