Fluoridation is the most monstrously conceived and dangerous communist plot we have ever had to face.
Do you realize that in addition to fluoridating water, why, there are studies underway to fluoridate salt, flour, fruit juices, soup, sugar, milk... ice cream. Ice cream, children's ice cream!
You know when fluoridation first began? Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 1946. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works.
Edit: For those who haven't seen the cinematic masterpiece Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
Meds. Meds now.
It's a slightly doctored quote from the movie Dr. Strangelove to remove references to the person he's talking to. But yes, the person saying it was crazy.
I can't see the word fluoride without thinking of it.
I was expecting "precious bodily fluids" to appear sooner, but otherwise I was onto it from the start.
They're always after me lucky fluids
