@kevinnbass@JamesSurowiecki Dummy the key issue is the DOSE. We are specifically talking about the *doses used in water fluoridation* and NOT *dosages found in waste water contaminated with a slew of other heavy metals like lead* which is what the studies showing a tiny effect on IQ are based on.
@NorthofNB Again what I said was a fact. I'm glad we both agree that Ukraine has in fact targeted Russia proper and thus the location of the targets is not the issue. Thanks! ๐ค

@N1ckyL1ck 4. Oh and to address the ridiculous link you posted. They discuss fluoride in rats. I dare you to post the dose they used on those rats.
Rats are over 100 times smaller than humans, and they are given doses that are orders of magnitude larger.
Just a laughable comparison.
@N1ckyL1ck@BramR0t 3. That moronic logic of yours would discard nearly all science. You can always invent a hypothetical conspiracy theory to dismiss anything you want. The question is do you have evidence. You DON'T.
@N1ckyL1ck@BramR0t Despite the tobacco industry trying to fund their own studies, the majority of evidence STILL showed it was not safe to smoke.
The scientific community as whole - representing tens of thousands of scientists - isn't as easily bought as you conspiracy theorists think.
@N1ckyL1ck@BramR0t Just to drive home how wrong you are and how NOT comparable these things are, here's the surgeon general in *1964* already saying the overall evidence showed smoking caused cancer.

@seriously133 Also if you dig into these studies - which I'm sure you haven't - you'll see many of them are based on Chinese studies looking at high exposure from contaminated water. Water contaminated with many other things, including lead!
Dishonest pieces of shit like you ignore this.
@seriously133@drummyt@zukosmadre Did you even bother looking at the DOSE, you imbecile? Those are high levels of exposure, FAR above what would ever be used in water fluoridation.
Anything can be toxic at extraordinary levels. Salt is deadly at high levels. So is water
You are a moron.
@seriously133 And I didn't say you said that it was the only one.
But you did imply it's worth - according to you - poisoning the water supply for.
A completely nonsensical position when there are countless other alternatives that are far more profitable.
