Crying

I am so tired of people thinking they know better than professionals when they don't even have basic knowledge on the topic.

I'm a student in dental hygiene who recently argued in a YouTube comment section with a guy who had said that if fluoride was effective, we wouldn't be seeing such high rates of gum illnesses in the population. Not what fluoride is for. Not even close. I took the time to explain why, but no reply.
Then another person jumped in. They were on my side, but claimed fluoride only works when ingested and not through topical applications like toothpaste. Not true. I had to correct them too, but still: no reply. No reply to me, but the two bozos keep arguing with each other for days. Misinformation against misinformation.

Why are we so stupid?

And act all woe around me when I mention I take medication?

Like I mentioned passing-ly to this guy once that "oh sorry, was taking my meds lol" and he acted like I was an in patient at a hospital. Like no? I got tourettes, depression and anemia not fucking cancer.
Like god forbid I be a jolly fellow taking my colourful medication. Gotta have some bitch act like I'm dying or something.
The only thing I'm gonna die of is fucking annoyance

Idk I might be tone deaf to this because I grew up in a family with disabilities and mental health issues who had to pop them pills.
Like I don't see taking meds as a sad thing. I take them, they help, I go on with life. Same with my mother and my sisters

I just don't see the point of acting sad over someone taking medication. If they're not sad about it don't be sad for them???
