>97% of the Earth's water is undrinkable
>Said water will make you thirsty when you drink it
Why do people fall for this meme? Has anyone here ever met someone who drank exclusively sea water for a few days? There's no evidence of it being harmful.
It's so obvious that it's an attempt to create a small, easy to tamper with pool of "drinking" water where they can put chemicals and other shit in it, while keeping the never ending tasty water all to themselves.
