INCIDENTAL CONSUMPTION OF DIRT IS NOT THE SAME THING AS CHRONIC INTENTIONAL CONSUMPTION

Agree with me louder, though.

saying that everybody agrees with you

Now now, stop playing pretend, I didn’t say “everyone”. Scientists, anthropologists and doctors agree with me that incidental oral exposure to soil(eating dirt) is probably not harmful and potentially-to-likely healthy, not “everyone”. You, for instance, seem very anti-science/illiterate about the whole thing.
