Thanks. I guess then my next question is, why are they doing this? Whom is it benefiting? Big Water?

It doesn’t always have to monetarily benefit anyone. It’s just fringe leaders playing to fringe ideas in this case

Is there scope to believe they just think it may be better not to have it in the water?

  • By default, we should not add anything to the water.

    The burden of proof should be on the people who want to add it. Because that is extra cost, extra chemical. If they can't prove it, then we don't do it.

    Are you asking if there's room to believe it's just a sincere "everything you eat or drink should stay untouched, like it's found in nature" belief? OK sure, let's go with that. So why aren't they working to dismantle water treatment plants altogether and e.g. fighting against modern industrial farming practices in that case?
