Not the lead. The fluoride!
The brain worms anti vax weirdo being in charge of the CDC seems like an excellent idea, Americans. What even is fucking going on?
PRECIOUS
BODILY
FLUIDS!
Let’s bring back leaded gasoline and asbestos too!!
What fucking year is this? And while he's at it, that horses's ass can get tinfoil hats into circulation to protect against
God damn it, will all these fossils with their lead poisoned brains just die already?
I used to respect the hell outta my boss. Chief engineer, man can fix and diagnose just about anything. Then he started talking about this guy and how great he is... Like how can someone be so smart yet so so dumb? How can you not apply the same critical thinking into politics as you do into your work? Where does the disconnect come in?
Maybe it's the brain worm talking because the fluorine would kill it?
This made me laugh so hard, I spit my drink all over my desk. Well played, sir.
What year is this? This was a scare back in the 1970.
Un-fortify the wheat now!

That's about the time the worm ate through his brain and stopped any further thinking.
It already starved to death.
"Precious bodily fluids..."
Is fluoride the new Frog-engayening agent? 🐸
Flouride makes teeth white. White light passing through a prism makes a rainbow. Therefore, fluoride makes my teeth gay.
Ignore that buzzing noise.
It's just the sound of 200,000 dentists rubbing their hands together at the thought of all the extra money they're going to make.
How about making sure 100% of US residents have access to clean, safe tap water first? Eliminate lead and forever chemicals. I don't feel strongly about fluoride, I do feel strongly you should be able to drink water from your kitchen sink without having to worry.
There actually is a huge push to replace ALL lead service lines in the next few years. Also the EPA has extra funding for treatment of "emerging contaminants" which includes PFAS. Republicans are trying (and succeding) to reduce this funding.
Wow are you a commie? Tap water should only contain flammable gas from nearby fracking plants! Yeehaw
Roe v Wade: "This should be decided by the states!"
Fluoride in water: "This should be decided by the federal government!"
???
They're proposing to ban vaccines too, and they're not mentioning particular vaccines, just "vaccines". So no healthcare for trans people or pregnant women, and no vaccines. It's only a matter of time before someone convinces them antibiotics are the devil's work.
Make Cavities Great Again
Don't we have real problems to solve? Why are Republicans always making up new shit?
Because Democrats tend to agree with reality, so if republicans want to oppose them they must insist that reality isn't true.
We don't have it in Quebec, we have more dental health issues on average than in Ontario (our neighbors)
