Holy shit. Unplug from reality for a second and appreciate the pure, unfiltered, fluoride-free comedy of this video.
I need to take a break from reading Russian propaganda so indulge me for a second as I break this truly unhinged video down.
First off: Paul Gosar has numerous ties to far-right and white supremacist groups. theguardian.com/world/2022/jan…
He was censured by the House for sharing memes suggesting his rivals should be killed. cnn.com/2021/11/17/pol…
Can't stress enough: washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
First off: Yes, it's *another* Mineral Monday (I wish it was Sunday, that's my gem day.) Gosar legitimately hosts a weekly show where he talks minerals. One such mineral was....airplanes.
"Without mining, you can't build planes," he says.
Onto fluoride: he's coming to you live from a drain

I mean, obviously, wonderful.
This is directly from the "Fluoride Action Network."
The word "elevated" is important, because some of these "74 studies" found cognitive impairment *could* happen when levels hit 2ppm, whereas the U.S. regs recommend 0.7ppm. (Fluoride occurs naturally, remember.)
And a snake
Also, of course, if your criteria is "studies that connect fluoride to IQ" — you might get a weird cohort of studies.
I also think this bonkers graph conflates the acceptable fluoride water levels and the fluoride levels in women (Tends to be well below 1.) Anyway.
Deeply, deeply funny.
Anyway, well-regulated fluoride levels in our drinking water is good and Paul Gosar is insane.

Vodka, that's what they drink, isn't it?
It's breathtaking, really.
