>plantations automatically mean slavery nooooo we can't say that word!!
Firstly, everyone who was a slave owner or who was a slave in Barbados is long dead. So no, no one should feel guilty about life from 191 years ago. https://barbadosghs.weebly.com/post-emancipation.html
The West Indies Rum Distillery (Plantation Rum) was founded in 1893, 59 years after slavery was abolished in Barbados. https://www.businessbarbados.com/articles/west-indies-rum-distillery
So this is purely virtue signalling. It's possible that the plantation used for the distillery was previously a slave-based plantation, but that's irrelevant because it would have changed before the distillery was founded. Avoiding a normal agricultural word doesn't provide any kind of merit. Are all the dead slaves of two centuries ago going to roll over in their graves and transcend from limbo to the heavens, as if everything bad done to them was undone, because a fucking liquor bottle tries to prevent the possibility of people having a thought that links rum to slavery?

No, that's not how this works. Iodine tablets saturate your thyroid with a stable isotope of iodine, preventing an uptake of radioactive iodine. All they do is temporarily protect your thyroid.
Even if you got thyroid cancer, it can be surgically removed. If your thyroid gets completely smoked and shrivels up, you can take hormone supplements. People live like that now without nuclear fallout.
Iodine tablets are for the retarded public to make them feel better.
