John F. Kennedy Jr. Was Right All Along: Fluoride’s Making Our Kids Idiots

Oh, how the tables have turned! Remember when everyone laughed off John F. Kennedy Jr. as some kind of conspiracy theorist for his warnings about fluoride? Well, guess who’s laughing now, you sanctimonious know-it-alls? The U.S. government has just served up a heaping plate of humble pie with their latest report from the National Toxicology Program (NTP). They’re now admitting what RFK Jr. was shouting from the rooftops: fluoride, when in excess, might just be turning our kids into brainless zombies.

So, while you’ve been chortling at the notion that this common water additive could affect your precious offspring’s smarts, the evidence has been quietly amassing. The report suggests that when kids drink water with fluoride levels over 1.5 milligrams per liter, their IQ could be on a one-way trip down.

Now, let’s not pretend this is about your typical American water supply – this is about the places where fluoride’s been having a field day. But the principle remains: RFK Jr. was onto something while you were busy scoffing.

The American Dental Association (ADA) probably wishes they could go back in time and mute their praise for fluoride. And the scientific community? They’re scrambling like they’ve never seen a study before. Some are finally nodding in agreement with RFK Jr., acknowledging that maybe, just maybe, he wasn’t just spinning tales. Yet, others cling to their skepticism, highlighting the imperfections in these studies like it’s their job (which, to be fair, it is).

Here’s the juicy part – there’s this growing murmur that this might be fluoride’s “tobacco moment,” where we all look back and go, “Oh, so RFK Jr. was right about this too, huh?” But science moves at the pace of a snail on vacation, so it’s not like we’re going to get instant answers.

To all those who dismissed RFK Jr.’s warnings as quackery, it’s time to eat your words. Maybe now you’ll think twice before rolling your eyes at someone questioning the status quo. If you’ve got kids, you might want to check that water quality or invest in a purifier, because apparently, RFK Jr. had a point.

And remember, while we’re re-evaluating fluoride’s role in our water, don’t throw away your toothpaste just yet; unless, of course, you want to start losing teeth faster than your kids lose brain cells.

So, in conclusion, to all those who thought they knew better, John F. Kennedy Jr. was right all along. Maybe next time, listen to the so-called “conspiracy theorists” before they get vindicated by science.
