If the word "skeptic" in the title actually meant that, this would be a good thing. It's good to be skeptic about everything until you're shown evidence. The problem here is that those folks aren't really skeptic.
I feel like using terms like "vaccine skeptic" for these morons is a major PR win for them. It makes it sound way more legitimate than it is. Fuck corporate media sanewashing everything going on politically right now.
We know what contributes a lot to developing autism. It's pollution, more specifically small particle matter found in for example car exhaust. The same cars for which they're now killing the environmental regulations.
I feel like I should start wearing a mask again in stores and other crowds, because this administration is going to kill me if I wait for the experts.
ps There are no experts anymore just these anti vaccine loony fuckshits.
I never stopped. And I damn well won't be anytime soon.
A large enough proportion of the populace has deemed it their God Given Right to infect anyone and everyone under the doctrine of "It's Just the Flu, Bro".
for real. During covid, I didn't get sick once, and that was heavenly cause when I get sick, it runs for weeks and get really really bad. I thought that wearing masks when sick would be the norm now, but whatever
Mark Geier
Is that the patient 0 of that autism claim? The one that was discredited decades ago (both the person and the claim)?
The biggest problem with him was, he just couldn't admit he had been wrong and continued to spout the bullshit, thus discovering a moderately profitable grift. And now his son is continuing it.
They really should review dihydrogen monoxide which is continually pushed by doctors but has a 100% mortality rate! DO YOUR RESEARCH!
This is why RFK only drinks methylated paint thinner.
Well that and he confused the methyl-part with methamphetamine.
Don’t do meth. Or methyl alcohol. Both are awful.
methylene blue to be exact, he has been seen in a video, of him using a large dropper of methylene blue on a flight into his drink. he bought into the unsubstantiated reports of it being useful.
Shit. That was supposed to be a joke.
Fuck me.
Goodness me. It's so dangerous it eats away at untreated metal. How could they foist this dangerous mixture onto us. It's worse than micro plastics. I heard estimates that claim it's now found in every living American.... and may even be now found in almost all of our food. Absolutely disgusting.
The leading cause of death is life!
“You’ll never believe it, Mr Kennedy. According to our data, vaccines causes cancer”, he says, smiling. “Once we increased our vaccination rates, cancer became a major cause of death within 15 years. I suspect that far fewer people will die of cancer, if we simply roll our policies back
F cancer.
Not that way...
"Name one person that died of cancer who never received a vaccine for anything. That's what I thought!"
And more people will die of polio, measles, mumps, and other preventable diseases BEFORE they have the chance to die from cancer!
I'd just like to caveat that a slim majority of American voters outdid themselves to undo decades of past hard-won progress.
A third of eligible voters didn't vote. The remaining people who did vote were almost evenly split. So, in rough numbers, 1/3rd of American voters put us all in this mess.
No, 2/3rds.
The third-ish that voted for Trump, and the third-ish that didn't vote for Harris.
In other words, the majority of Americans either wanted this government, or didn't care if this was the government.
a slim majority
Not even that. The majority of voters, 50.2%, voted for Harris or third party.
And how many eligible voters didn't bother to vote? They're also equally responsible for this.
"Or third party"
I see the problem...
A two party system that uses first past the post?
Needs to change.
The only pathways are direct voter ballot initiativesmin the states that have them (only 26 states do) and progressive candidates and voters flooding the Democratic primaries to take over the party.
Please.
