Using Nineteen Eighty-Four references incorrectly is a right-wing trope.

The "Ruthless" joke is one I remember from effing "Swallows and Amazons", the ancient British children's book, where one of the protagonists calls herself Nancy instead of her given name Ruth, because she's a pirate and pirates are ruthless.

There's a subtype of goldbugs that want "hard money" to be represented by something more universal than gold, like energy. It's why they convince themselves Bitcoin is worth something. Maybe this joker is one of them.

You are doing the Robot God's work here, my friend.

An aside - what will EY do when/if ole Muskovitch slams the paywall down on the smoking ruins of ExTwitter? All these perfectly crafted missives, lost from plebeian view. Such a tragedy.

Buried in the google drive is a note that this does not remove the need for brushing teeth, but it just notes that not doing that will give you bad breath.

In fact I believe that this is the true cause of this not being a product - people will still need to brush their teeth for other reasons than preventing cavities. If brushing teeth correctly currently lessens the risk of both caries and periodontal disease, having a shot that removes the risk of caries could conceivably mean less conscientious tooth care, which increases the risk of gum problems.

Like the old saw goes, I traded health and happiness for the ability to detect an alt-right chud after 2 sentences.
