IF YOU THINK (P)HARMA
IS BAD
WAIT UNTIL YOU GO DOWN THE DENTISTRY
RABBIT HOLE…
Reports document dentists (especially in corporate/private equity-backed chains) pushing unnecessary procedures like crowns, fillings, deep cleanings, or extractions for implants to hit revenue targets. Healthy teeth get pulled for profitable implants; kids get excessive work. Lawsuits and investigations (e.g., against chains) highlight this.
Private equity influence has grown, prioritizing volume and production over conservative care. Ex-employees describe pressure to drill or treat borderline issues.
Procedures are expensive, second opinions vary wildly, and preventive care sometimes gets overshadowed by intervention.
These mirror pharma’s profit motives and overprescription problems.
The big one. Old 1920s research (focal infection theory) claimed they cause systemic disease (arthritis, cancer, etc.) via trapped bacteria/toxins.
Fluoride: The excessive exposure causes dental fluorosis (enamel spots, now common in ~1/3 of US kids), and studies link higher prenatal/childhood levels to modest IQ drops.
Mercury amalgam fillings: They release tiny amounts of vapor, especially when chewing. Regulatory bodies (FDA, ADA) say no clear harm for most people in the general population. Sensitive individuals or those with kidney issues might differ. Removal isn’t recommended unless necessary (it can spike exposure temporarily). Alternatives like composites are common now.
Other topics (wisdom teeth extractions, orthodontics, “biological” dentistry) vary case-by-case. Some extractions are unnecessary; others prevent real problems.

After Buffalo City Hall held a Somali flag raising ceremony and canceled its July 4th fireworks celebration, the Somali flag was STOLEN just a few short hours later.
Police are investigating and have not filed charges yet.
No other nations flag should be raised on our soil. That is the sign of a conquered nation.
America is NOT a conquered nation.
"Operation Flockout" is targeting Flock nationwide.
"Knock the Flock" is doing the same across the Midwest.
2 groups. 1 goal:
Remove every Flock camera in 🇺🇸 by 2027.
For the first time ever, the surveillance state is facing organized, multi-regional resistance.
Blessed are the privacy makers. 🕊️
Reporting suggests the Taylor and Travis wedding will have extensive security and government issued ID checks.
Wild since the Democrats tell us showing ID is racist and oppressive.
ID for a wedding, not to vote.
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
A petroleum distributor in Portland, Oregon has sounded the alarm on a plan by the state to reduce the supply of gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. In the name of seismic safety, they propose to decommission 20 percent of the storage capacity located in Portland that supplies 90 percent of the fuel for the entire state.
The problem? Oregon already has only a 3-5 day diesel supply at any given time—for the entire state. Reducing that by 20 percent puts the state at extreme risk of fuel shortages during periods of crisis, disaster, or heightened demand.
What this really represents is this deep blue state's abiding commitment to completely phase out "fossil fuels" in order to save the planet, using "seismic safety" as a cover.

The ruling class in Europe are allowed to use air conditioning but the commoners are dying because they aren't allowed to use air conditioning. But at least after they die their dead bodies are stored in an completely air conditioned cooler. The madness continues..
