I hate this whole anti vax thing. Thought this would be funny.

Why not just make vaccinations required and refusal come with heavy fines until you do. (I know some people are unable to be vaccinated)

I wish we could get vaccinated against the stupidity spread by anti-vaxers, but then we would all be autistic.

Seriously though, the only thing I ever hear about this outrage is the outrage itself.
Cerinna
It's spreading to the animal owners as well. =/ Fortunately, they want to introduce "titering" instead, which seems smarter to me.

Did you know that drinking two cups of bleach can kill the genes that are responsible for low intelligence?

Even if it did cause autism I'd rather have an autistic child than a dead one
MeggaMillion
Is this still a thing? Are people not doing this still?

Here's the kicker... even if vaccines DID cause autism (they don't) autism is far better than fucking polio.
3OpposumsInaTrenchCoat
My favorite thing is that people would rather rusk there child getting polio than having autism....wtf?

Anti-vaxxers put normal people at risk, not just themselves. Keyword: herd immunity

If you tell anti vaccers about that guy that was proven a fraud, they'll just tell you that big pharma wanted him out or some shit like that
whyiseverythingupsidedown
So they basically have PhDs in stupid?
Mycologics
Exactly. They'll say that he was shunned because he was the only one who spoke the truth!

Why do people hate progress?? Honestly.. What the falt earthers and all.. Im beginning to lose faith in humanity.. WAIT, ALREADY HAVE!!

+1 for throwing in 'toxins' at the end. I always ask someone what it means when it comes up, every time I get a different answer.
ElevatedExistence
Know a guy that didnt want to vax his kids because he thought that "He would build up an immunity to the diseases

I've actually never seen an Anti- Vaxxer
aSlaveToChaos
Oh, they wxist. My fiance's german-babtist aunt tried to tell me vaccines gave her two children auto immune disorders.

#5 Boasting about how you shut someone down isn't actually an argument. It's just argument adjacent.
ProfChaos23
Oh yeah, cause proving someone to be a fraud and child abuser is totally not a reasonable argument for banning them from practicing medicine
heteroscedastic
Yes, that's fine and just. It just doesn't further your argument to demonstrate that you can hurt people who disagree with you.
ibleedglitterandgold
My bf wasnt vaccinated for chicken pox. he got chicken pox. i was vaccinated for chicken pox. ive never had chicken pox. but he argues ...
ibleedglitterandgold
that we shouldnt vaccinate our kids because if they are vaccinated and get chicken pox it will be terrible for them...?
ibleedglitterandgold
honestly I dont even know where to go with that logic.

#2 - Huh? Is Shatner anti-vaxx?
RandAlTh0r
Its a reference to actors pushing anti vax ignoring doctors.
OldmanSerious
Jim Carrey would be the one. He's an anti-vaxx loon like his ex-girlfriend Jenny McCarthy. He's also into other woo, no surprise there.
yourfriendlyneighbourhoodtotoro
I'm completely with you. I've stopped trying to argue with idiots though. Coffins still come in baby size.

Ill say this about vaccines. My daughter had no symptoms of any kind of allergies. Immediately after her vaccines, she now has allergies (1)
BurnerAccount626
Like, her whole body is covered in bumps all the time allergies.

been forever since I read the books. didnt the author die before he finished? (which lets be real, you could cut out a books worth of fluff)
starrydance
He did, but Brandon Sanderson finished out the series. Its wonderful, go finish it up!

Yes it is and Brandons books are great also.

Even if it did cause autism (it doesn't) I'd rather my kid have that than polio.
kanybal
Yup. Once again, the worst part, to me, is that antivaxxers are basically saying: I'd rather my kid be dead than autistic
DonkeyMilk
I've been saying this verbatim for a while. Polio is the WORST thing I've ever seen.
LizLemmon
I know a lady with a PhD in psychology who didn't vaccinate her kid. Her husband (pilot) went along with that. Complete fools.
LizLemmon
Irrational thoughts can make a smart person do extremely irresponsible things. Even without religion as the driving force.
fredlinkage
No you wouldn't. Depends on the level of autism.
DonkeyMilk
I've seen severe autism and I've seen severe polio. Polio is worse.
thevortexmaster
I've seen and know people that have very high range autism. It can be trying at times but I'd still rather have that then my kid dying
MRWubbs
This one of those times the difference between then and than is important
thevortexmaster
Hahahaha whoops. Good call
MrsFX
Dont matter, come back after you have googled polio
fredlinkage
Google doesn't show you real life fool! Experience life before opening you mouth. Google don't know shit!!
fredlinkage
I'm old enough to have known brothers who have suffered severely from both! The bro who had Polio was glad he wasn't autistic like his bro.
peachesforme
but what about having polio and being autistic because you were not vaccinated. it's not an either or
fredlinkage
Have you ever heard of someone having both? I certainly haven't. But I think you are taking this the wrong way. I'm for vaccines.
