Fluoridated water doesn't seem to make a difference on cavities. It does have neurological effects. It's simply not acutely fatal. It's already in our toothpaste. We don't need it in our municipal water supply and the majority of developed countries don't.

I appreciate that you put some reputable sources, rather than relying on a random tweet/post.
Now say something that bros can really understand, like "fluoride affects zinc and magnesium absorption". Just don't tell them how it interacts
I never met the fellow. I never did the science either.
You all are easily impressed.

Nah trust me bro.
The question about this is that the same can be said about lead. Do we want to consume that?
No. It can't be said for fluoride. Lead is known to be extremely toxic. We've seen what it does. Fluoride in water is not toxic, which has been shown multiple times.
Your argument is asinine.
Toxicology isn't a real profession. These people are run by big toxicity. For real water advice you want a homeopath.
It could likely be replaced with hydroxyapatite instead (it also can be used to remove lead and other things from water, which makes searching about being added to municipal water difficult). Good for not only teeth, also bones.
I also wonder if adding other vitamins would make more sense (just enough to stop deficiencies) if we're talking about health outcomes, though the first idea I had with vitamin C came up with results of that messing with the chlorine in the water.

"That's just what they want you to think!"
Come up with a rebuttal to this that an ignorant right-winger would believe.
Okay fluoride gang (of which I may be a member)…
A study about the affects of fluoride in municipal water on plants: MSU study
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
