More earth-shattering news from the JBS, AKA John Birch Society, those right-wing paranoid crazies from my youth. In the 50's & 60's they claimed that water floridation was a communist plot. Keep 'em coming!

"In the 1964 movie Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, General Jack D. Ripper launches a nuclear strike against the Soviet Union to stop the Communist infiltration that he fears will 'sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.' In the 1960s, moviegoers instantly recognized that Ripper's character was a parody of a right-wing paranoid. It was a leftist highbrow swipe at the John Birch Society's (JBS) opposition to the campaign to fluoridate community water supplies in the 1950s. The JBS opposed the fluoridation of public water supplies on the grounds that it is an involuntary mass medical treatment that violates individual rights."
