Some Anglosphere countries (USA, Canada, Ireland, Australia) love to add fluoride in water. They say it’s good for people’s dental health.

Europeans (Germany, Finland, Italy, France, Netherlands, Switzeland) think it’s wrong/unethical.

There is actually regular controversy around this

Do they put fluoride in your drinking water ? Are you happy with that?

    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
