What the fuck kind of take is that lol?

Maybe you should read it. You do understand that electromagnetic radiation and ionizing radiation (which is what this symbol means ☢️) are different right? Their phones aren't radioactive, they emit electromagnetic radiation, similar to how a heater emits thermal radiation, and a speaker emits acoustic radiation.

Nah man I got bit by my radioactive cell phone and now I have powers.

Like having 5G service and receiving text messages to my teeth.

Light is radiation. So is Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. What sorts of radiation are you taking about?
