Florida is poised to become 2nd state to ban fluoride from public water systems
Florida is poised to become 2nd state to ban fluoride from public water systems
“Anything that relates to water quality, removing contaminants, things like that, we’re not touching that,” Tuck [the bill sponsor] said. “It’s anything that has to do with health. So fluoride, vitamins, whatever else it is.”
This is grim. Water fluoridation was one of the biggest public health victories the US had gained.
Keep your teeth safe, comrades. Try a fluoridated oral rinse if you have difficulty with consistent brushing.
I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.
Watching Dr. Strangelove for the first time was interesting, because of how similar General Ripper's character is to modern chuds - the same brainworms being around in 1964 as in 2025
The florida jewish dude who shot up 2 Israelis in Miami makes more sense now
NOOO MY TEETH
i've actually heard even "progressives" say fluoride causes low IQs so not particularly surprising i suppose
I will never forgive the nazis for experimentation with fluoride. The other stuff, too, but also fluoride nonsense.
Anyone who talks to me and dares to call themselves a progressive and then says the words IQ is getting a harsh slap across the face
fluoride mineralizes and closes your third eye.
lead opens up you up to eternal, spiritual wisdom.
like how pooping the bed and rolling around in it while squealing jibberish turns you into an antennae for Christ.
Private dentist lobby must be laughing their asses off at how much money they'll be raking in from this.
There was a first?
Yes, apparently Utah banned around a month ago. I must have missed that reporting too.
it’s got to be a really high bar for me if we’re going to require people to be medicated by their government.
-Governor Cox
Honorable mention: Hawai’i refused to even enact a fluoride requirement in 1966 and it’s failed in the legislature ever since.
In 2015, the state’s 3rd graders had the highest rates of tooth decay in the entire US.
This is one of the bluest states in the entire nation. Would you like to know more?
The dirty soda cabal and dentists conspired to make this one happen
Bonus Fact: Gov. Cox posed with Donvict Dementia last year at Arlington National Cemetery to campaign for votes over dead vets, endorsing donOLD Krasnov. Cox apologized for the vet desecration stunt, but not for endorsing the Tax Tariff Troll. Now kids have to get fluoride in other ways as the government chisels away at the things that actually make Utah great.
fluorida
Nothing really changes
can't wait for mandatory methylene blue water
we'll have the bluest water folks
vitamins in water system
Florida? More like Fluoride-dont
Oral hygiene has a direct relationship to your health, just the increase of heart disease alone is going to kill or disable so many people
Good that you can't misspell the French name for the state in while in a public water system I guess, but I don't imagine that's a common issue.
floridaman here
now im actually going to have to start using toothpaste again just to get my flouride
and i dont even mean this as a bit you dont need toothpaste it doesnt help with bad breath or cleaning your teeth its only useful for the flouride if you dont get it naturally
You should be using fluoride toothpaste regardless of if your water has fluoride or not. Fluoridated water is better than nothing, but fluoride only prevents tooth decay when it's actually physically in contact with your teeth. Obviously that contact is much more consistent with two minutes of brushing compared to the seconds it takes water to pass through your mouth when you drink.
the insulting assumption that i take one sip of water per day jfc the internet is amazing when people respond to you they dont even stop and think for like even a moment
im in my 40s with all my teeth even wisdom and no cavities and drink almost exclusively tap water daily so i think ill continue on this course comrade but you rub that chalky shit all over your gums if you like dont let me talk you out of it
This is some real brain expanding third eye open shit
You need to go on Rogan
no im serious not only is toothpaste uneccesary to good oral hygiene but numerous peer reviewed published studies show that not only does it not help you clean your teeth better but brushing without it often leads to better results
another fun one: there is no good science behind flossing. the usa is one of the only countries that still pushes it. some countries that used to push it have stopped because the studies just dont show any significant benefit
Poised* not poisoned as I first read that line. My myopia. OK go on.
Good idea I guess, wouldnt want to waste flourine flouridating the ocean once florida sinks into the sea next year lol
I feel like this presidency is really showing the base/superstructure distinction.
Like, obviously everything that's happening is in response to the base (declining empire, destruction of the public sphere, etc.)
But there are just so many instances this time around of the fact that we're being run by ideologically committed morons. Like, removing this shit from the water supply is not, like, a ploy to privatize the fluoridation of water. They're doing it because they're conspiracy brained.
And it’s not targeted either, it’s not like they’re pulling funding for fluoridation in heavily black areas or anything like that
They’re genuinely stupid people who actually believe insane conspiracy theories about fluoride and don’t believe in the benefits. There’s no plot. They’re just really really dumb. They’re also evil, but it can’t be understated that they’re dumb.
Daniel Craig's little speech at the end of Glass Onion describes the current era better than anything else I've seen
There's gotta be a broad overlapping of profoundly stupid and "evil." The garden-variety evil person probably is just really, really dumb, while a small minority of evildoers are highly intelligent sociopaths.
Of course the more involved they are in organized religion, the easier they probably are to push into weird evil shit, since they're primed to comply and not question their own actions.
But I nevertheless predict that fluoridated bottled water will be on store shelves by the end of the year if it's not already.
This will not happen. Fluoride is already available to people who can afford it in the form of toothpaste, and toothpaste is a way more effective method of fluoride application than drinking water. The point of fluoridated water isn't that it's the best way to prevent tooth decay, compared to toothpaste it really isn't. The point is that it provides fluoride to literally everyone, even people who can't afford toothpaste, because everyone drinks water. It is completely pointless as a product.
