      Lol, we definitely have had clean drinking water for far longer than we have had dirty drinking water, thank the industrial revolution for that. And try skipping a shower for a day - you’ll be fine. Soap also has a long history https://www.soaphistory.net/soap-history/ over 4000 years

      So literally wrong on all three points. Perhaps you need to read more instead of doom scrolling and swapping nudes on your smartphone

        I’m pretty sure there can be other bad stuff in water that existed before the industrial revolution

          Sure, loads of sewage. But it also had smaller settlements, less people, and human waste was recycled more in times gone by too. Far more water was far more drinkable even 150 years ago

            Where do people like you get their information from? I’m seriously wondering, is there a shitty nonsense site out there or do you just pull shit out of your ass?
