I'd say at least it's not generational lead poisoning, but we'll probably end up with that too at this rate

Approximately 40.5% of men and women will be diagnosed with cancer at some point during their lifetimes.

this might be worse than generational lead poisoning

Nah, everybody dies of something. It's also never ACTUALLY "old age". It's either cancer, or a cascading failure of organs caused by a chronic disease, or both.

a lot more people are getting cancer at younger ages than before

and is it like how there were "suddenly" more left handed or non-straight people? Sounds more like everyone jumping on headlines.

Maybe pumping chemicals and plastic into the food and water supply is actually really good for us. I bet everyone didn't think about that.

You might be able to link the cited article to a decline in sperm count.

Might. Saying, "yep, definitely why cancer" is simply and only a jump to conclusions.
