That's not true. Here's an archive of the same page from 2015. https://archive.is/4OKBO#selection-687.84-687.85 mRNA has always been a mechanism to move instructions from the actual DNA to outside the nucleus. It's never been a mechanism to rewrite DNA (although it is likely that there have been attempts to edit DNA that involve mRNA, but that is not the normal function of mRNA). You are fucking wrong. I took AP biology which isn't much but it's enough to know what mRNA is.
Okay, fine but I made another sibling post, https://kotakuinaction2.win/p/12kFn8M2ul/x/c/4JEW0zrpxHG, where I transcribed a passage from a book from 1976 written by one of the people who won the Noble Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1965 for the discovery of mRNA. Your memory is wrong. It's unlikely they are making convincing fake scans for books in the 70s. Please do not make me search used bookstores for a physical copy because I'm kind of invested here.
To
translate and form the chemical bonds in protein, the bacterial cell
deploys a piece of extremely complex equipment. The synthesis of
proteins is a two-stage process, since the protein sub-units are
assembled and polymerized, not directly on the gene, but on small
particles in the cytoplasm which serves as assembly lines. the deoxy-
ribonucleic acid text of the gene is therefore first transcribed into
another species of nucleic acid, the so-called ribonucleic acid, by
means of the same four-sign alphabet. This copy, called the 'messen-
ger', associates iwth the particles in the cytoplasm and brings them
the instructions for assembling the protein sub-units in the order
dictated by the nucleic-acid sequence.

You do need an account to 'borrow' the book. And maybe archive.org is making very convincing edits to their scanned books but that seems wildly unlikely since most people won't investigate past the first internet rag that comes up on google.
That is not at all correct. e: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Messenger_RNA&oldid=790415279 here is the July 2017 wikipedia article on mRNA (which is probably unpozzed because at that point there was no politics attached to mrna).
