There’s also the sad fact that not every kid is taught to—or sometimes allowed to—brush their teeth.

I hope there’s nothingsecretly sinister about it.
I mean, sure, this could endup just being FUD like with the antivax conspiracy theory, but it also has the potential of being another Microplastic polluting shit like PFAS that nobody knew was harmful for many decades.
So for things I have low-info on, its best to not hold a strong opinion, rather than risking beliving in the wrong thing. I keep my mind open to different points of view.

Nothing sinister at all. It has a long and proven track record. Which you can check out if you don’t want to be low-info anymore. Doctors and dentists support it.
But there’s a subset of people who want us to go back to disease-ridden serfs, because when your teeth are falling out and 3 out of your 5 kids died young from disease and you can barely make rent, you’re too distracted to care what other people are doing.
