Edit: typo in the title, should be FLUOROSILICIC acid. Shits so toxic I can't even spell it right.
There have been a slew of articles recently about how excessive fluoride causes lower IQ in children
The truth is that this has been known for a long time. During my time in undergrad over 15 years ago, I did presentations about fluoride in my 'public speaking' class, and wrote a bunch of papers about all of the hazards associated with added fluoride, which included lower IQ, among other chronic illnesses, and even then this information was old. Everyone in class was shocked to learn about how disgusting tap water is. One of the things that was the most egregious is that the fluoride that is added to water isn't even pharmaceutical grade fluoride, or such that is naturally occurring in water and food as mineral. No, the "fluoride" in our water is a byproduct of fertilizer industry, and is otherwise too toxic to just dump, and too expensive to dispose of, so the government buys it up and dumps into our drinking water.
One last thing I'll add on this topic is that when I was researching it back in the 2000's, this kind of information was much easier to find with simple Google search. Doing the same research now and all I get are official EPA and mainstream sheep shit articles about "safe" it is, kind of like the results you get if you want to do an earnest research into clot shots. Internet is not what it used to be.
