A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I don't think the claim is that it's deadly; I believe the concern it's that there's little to no proven benefits when used topically and at least a few proven detriments when ingested. I haven't done much reading on the subject, so I'm not sure.
Regardless of the veracity of the aforementioned claims, I believe it's immoral for a government to add unnecessary chemicals to public water supply.
