Comment on Is there really anything stopping an evil government from just poisoning the water supply to commit a massacre/genocide/ethnic-clensing?

Yeah, there are systems in place — water is tested regularly, and lots of people are involved, so it’d be hard to secretly poison it without someone noticing. But if a government is evil enough to try something like that, they’d probably use other methods anyway. Most real-life atrocities happen through laws, force, and fear — not movie-style poison plots. What really stops it is people paying attention and speaking up.
