What? We put fluoride in water because people can't afford toothpaste or brush their teeth? That's news to me.

So you're saying that there's no point in having fluoridated water if you have proper dental hygiene?

The addition of fluoride (fluoridation) to drinking water that is low in fluoride or the use of fluoride toothpaste and supplements significantly reduces the risk of tooth decay.

Jeez, you really can't read, can you?

I don't expect you to be capable of making worthwhile arguments, so I'm just going to end this here.

Goodbye.

That's a loaded question because people do not suffer without fluoridated water.

Do you want to explain how they suffer without fluoridated water? That way you're talking specifics that can actually be debated upon instead of generalities where people need to make your arguments for you.

For the same reason people should “have to” resort to anything else they don’t want that everyone else is fine with.

Like lead in gasoline? The thing is, everyone else is not "fine" with this. Why do you think there's an article about it?

Why should people have to resort to using reverse osmosis to avoid fluoride in their drinking water?

Also, good job pivoting instead of admitting you were arguing in bad faith.

I expect you to keep doing that.

What a bad faith argument.

Most people who want to avoid fluoride in their drinking water use reverse osmosis.

What are you talking about?

People get cavities all the time, and it's because they don't brush their damn teeth.

Honestly, I'd wait to see how that plays out in court before freaking out over it.

I can see any average lawyer convincing a jury that there's no way to prove the client knew the software was pirated.
