There is no scientific backing for that MSG is dangerous. None of the claims have been proven.
We know clearly that cyanide is dangerous.

Yeah, but that is the risk taken to get that high comp potentially in the first place.

Reply to comment by mixer99 in Revolutionary Violence and Counterrevolution ["revolutions involving more violence are less at risk of counterrevolution and that this relationship exists primarily because violence lowers the likelihood of counterrevolutionary success—but not counterrevolutionary emergence"] by i_have_thick_loads
If you kill your opponent during a revolution, they are less likely to strike back.

Reply to Chronic intake of liquid sucrose in mice at concentrations relevant to typical human consumption induces sexually dimorphic metabolic effects in liver, adipose tissue, and the microbiome by Meatrition
The mice that had water with 10% sucrose gained weight(and a lot of fat mass), while the mice that drank pure water didn't. My guess is that is is purely from the weight gain, and not the sucrose directly (but indirectly from ease of overconsuming calories).

Yeah, I am completely agreeing with that part. Natural doesn't mean good, but is still used in marketing to imply that it's good/healthy/safe.
