How come we didn't evolve to drink shitty water?
Almost all animals can do it, mammals can drink from fucking rivers and even stale water and be fine, some birds can even drink sea water with no issues, hell even my spoiled ass dog can slurp from a muddy puddle and be fine.
Meanwhile, most people will shit their organs out after they drink water from even a clean spring..
How come this wasn't a great filter(heh) for humanity, considering how hard is to access absolutely pure water in nature?

In nature, one may drink from another’s toilet. Man, for some reason, insists of drinking from his own.

We did, and then we started cooking our food so less energy is spent on digestion instead of our brains

dirty water isnt more safe for animals, they just live with the parasites and diseases they get from it (and sometimes die to it). if you shoot a deer and eat its meat, there is a near 100% chance of it having multiple parasites.

We did and you can do it too if you like. It's just a matter of building up tolerance and tolerating the parasites and diseases that you will inevitably get from it, both of which are better than dying from thirst because evolution didn't give you opposable thumbs to build a water treatment plant.

>and be fine
They're not fine. Animals in nature are absolutely caked with parasites inside and out

You made this thread already, in which dozens of people perfectly answered your stupid question, therefore this is just a troll spam thread.

Literal definition of “fine”.
