Baby smells get you high and promote warlike behavior and ethnocentrism.
There’s someone somewhere right now thinking how can they use this to turn a profit in a probably distopian way.
Isn’t that basically what happens every time politicians tell people to vote against their own interests and say it’s “to protect the children?”
