Why are they advertising the mineral asbestos in asbestos magazine? Surely nobody is reading that publication because they’re on the fence about the stuff?

We knew it was bad then too. This is cynical propaganda to try to normalise its use in the face of a mounting public health crisis.
Much like fossil fuel companies today will continuously put out statements and ads and fund studies that either refute their impact or minimizes it. The cigarette industry pioneered this approach which essentially consists in putting just enough doubt and uncertainty into the public discourse to make regulation seem unnecessary overreach, despite overwhelming consensus from the subject matter experts who unlike lobbyists can’t just buy their way into getting real estate in magazine stands.
