Is there such a thing in this game? If not I don't see the point in end game. I can tank anything, but 1 little snake speed at me I'm instantly dead. Am I missing something regarding poison or is this the endgame experience?

reduced duration of poison on you
chaos resistance (still works vs poison i think, thats how it is in poe1)

Is that so? How have I not been told the poison damage is resisted through chaos? That's gotta be the most useful information I've been given since I started. Very much appreciated.

from the ingame tooltip for poison

Beautiful. I play Xbox so it's hard seeing all the tooltips. Huge thanks.

Well, there's the charm to mitigate poison dmg for a temporary fix.
