I was listening to the truth today, like I do most mornings, and they decided to play this disturbing video by bioethicist and writer,  Jacob Appel. I could only listen to it over the radio, but made a mental note to search out the video later. Believe it or not, I was kinda hoping the whole thing was a hoax because blue is my favorite color, but alas, YouTube doth harsh my mellow!

Kinda numbing, wasn’t it.
Lets start with the fluoride argument…
THERE IS NO ARGUMENT! FLUORIDE IS A POISON!


According to the above label:

  • Sodium Fluoride is: DANGER POISON-TOXIC BY INGESTION
  • TARGET ORGANS: Heart, Kidneys, Bones, Central Nervous System, Gastrointestinal System, Teeth
  • DO NOT GET IN EYES OR ON SKIN – DO NOT INGEST, INHALE, WEAR PROPER RESPIRATOR.

Now the Lithium argument…
We should put lithium in the water to combat depression, suicide and overall aggressiveness. The only problem with that is that, like fluoride, lithium is not good for us. According to Wikipedia, Lithium metal is corrosive and requires special handling to avoid skin contact. Breathing lithium dust or lithium compounds (which are often alkaline) initially irritate the nose and throat, while higher exposure can cause a buildup of fluid in the lungs, leading to pulmonary edema. The metal itself is a handling hazard because of the caustic hydroxide produced when it is in contact with moisture.
Side effects of Lithium:

  • Mild to severe shakiness or twitching, especially in the hands
  • Thirst, dry mouth
  • Drowsiness
  • Muscle weakness
  • Giddiness or restlessness
  • Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
  • Seizures
  • Slurred speech, blurred vision, dizziness, vertigo, coordination problems or blackout spells
  • Bowel or bladder control problems (including but not limited to diarrhea and increased or frequent urination)
  • Nausea, vomiting or loss of appetite
  • An irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia) or a slow heart rate (bradycardia)
  • Thyroid problems, including goiters or hypothyroidism.

The thing is, there’s probably already lithium in the water. That would explain why more people went to the Lebron James rally than the tea party rally protesting mandatory health care. Or why GLEE is on TV. Yeah I said it! GLEE SUCKS! And so does American Idol and Tyra Banks is EVIL!
But I digress…
We have to wake up. We have to stop tolerating this. Yes, at times, the Matrix is beautiful, but those fake boobs you’re squeezing… they’re FAKE! If you’re REALLY into water sports, you can’t be “virtually” peed on. Bottled water IS tap water! The Emperor is butt nekkid and don’t let me get started on what Outback is selling as Prime Rib steak!
Would we really create a Matrix where we were this unhappy? Human Race, GET OFF YOUR KNEES!
