      Short version is conservatives in America hate being told what to do and love telling others what to do. The government putting fluoride in the water is them being told by the government what to do.

      people have been propagandized that flouride is toxic, so many people have switched to flouride free toothpaste, just look at amazon reviews, some have reported they got cavaties again, no wonder.

      they bought into the study that children who had consumed alot of flouride, developed flourosis on thier teeth.

      while studies have shown that flouride-hydroxapatite, its when the flouride ion binds to your teeth makes more resistant to acidic attacks. theres a new kind of toothpaste in various brands usually nano-hydroxapatite, but the effects and study arnt concrete yet.

      That sounds exactly like conservative. They’re basically synonyms now. Anyone who votes conservative this day and age is either dumb or evil.
