What the heck, thetruth.com not truth.org ???

[edit]

What the heck, (1) thetruth.com not truth.org ??? Any reason WHY this article doesn't cover where truth-dotOrg went? .. I suspect domain name renewal lapsed due to idiocy and a cybersquatter swooped in .. but you're probably gonna tell me, oh, marketing rebranding. (2) Also, what's the connection if any to TobaccoFreeCa.com anyone know? Thanks -From Peter {a.k.a. Vid2vid (talk | contribs)} 08:45, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

What are you trying to ask?LordApofisu (talk) 03:06, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Chemophobia

[edit]

Why does this article not have a section talking about how Truth's tactics are largely misleading, manipulative scare tactics centered on exploiting people's chemophobia and scientific illiteracy? Example: "urine and tobacco both contain urea" Urea is a harmless substance that is used extensively in cosmetics and even has medical applications. See Dihydrogen monoxide parody for comparison.

@Succubus MacAstaroth: Well, playing devil's advocate here for a moment, I suppose Wikipedia editors would tell you that, as far as a criticism section for the article, any claims of Truth's tactics being misleading & manipulative scare tactics & such would have to be backed up by legitimate, credible sources.
So, I'm guessing your next step should be to start doing research; see if you can come across any legit, credible outlets that have information that's been proven. Then, you could probably start editing the article, inserting information that's backed up by research. Afterwards, would have to wait & see how Wikipedia editors respond. 2600:1700:C960:2270:844:65B9:B1FD:2CDD (talk) 06:24, 31 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
