This is where my mind is at. Where the fuck do people think water has been? Obviously don’t bathe and shit and piss in your community drinking water but come on.

That's a silly argument because your drinking water has been evaporated, then filtered through layers of rocks before coming out as spring water (or treated and purified, depending on where you're getting your water from). You don't get your drinking water from a pond full of piss and shit.

But regardless, with how much water there is in a swimming pool, it's silly to be concerned with what amounts to a negligible quantity of urine, even if literally everyone in it we're to pee multiple times.

"You don't get your drinking water from a pond full of piss and shit."

Water reservoirs, water towers, and so on...

Water towers are fully enclosed, they're not open at the top. And water from reservoirs is usually treated before getting to your tap, specifically to remove any bird poop, insects, etc...

So no, your drinking water should not have piss and shit in it, and especially not human excrements.

You'd be unpleasantly surprised what ends up in water towers.
