The

community is ableist, and harmful to the

community. I have learned so much, and have so many regrets. The biggest one is not getting my son help sooner, because the blinders I had on. My son is 5 and fully vaccinated now.

It would be really funny if a vaccinated person donated blood to the unvaccinated blood bank. What are they going to do, ask for papers to prove vaccination status? The thing they rallied so hard against? HAHAHAHA.

18. Autism has gone up do to various factors. It has been linked to older parental age for instance and many people delay having kids. The DSM5 also broadened the definition of autism which also increased dx.
Avoiding vaccines has zero protective effect on autism. (Hviid 2019)

The heads of the antivax movement arent experts in vaccines. They have an entrepreneur/airplane creeper, an English prof, and and MIT computer scientist, a veterinarian, a washed up mRNA guy, and 2 disgraced cardiologists. Its really pathetic.

If someone dies of covid antivaxxers will immediately bring up comorbid conditions as the cause but overlook them when someone dies of anything else to blame it on the vaccine. The mental gymnastics are insane.

Every time antivaxxers come at me, I beg them for citations and evidence and their understanding of that evidence, and every. single. time. they fail to deliver and validate my choice to fully vaccinate my family. Not one of them can deliver.

Everything is a nail when you're a hammer, and everything is a vaccine reaction when you're an antivaxxer.

Vaccinating your children is providing them with the most basic form of healthcare. It's not a controversial decision and if you don't vaccinate, you're negligent. I was a negligent parent. Misguided but negligent all the same.

Antivaxxers will complain about excipients in vaccines that are thousands of times below the toxic threshold, would be invisible to the naked eye if removed and then consume borax, in a visible amount, which is literally ant poison.

20. If your child gets injured by a horrible disease, who will take care of them. The rate of SSPE in infants is 1/609.

With a gap this big (41%), a few children will statistically get SSPE, especially when these 7 year olds spread measles to babies who cant get vaccinated until 12 months old. SSPE is 100% fatal.

I have a message for anyone that is provaccine: If you do not get organized at the level that antivaxxers are, especially when it comes to speaking out at govt. hearings, you will lose. When 100 antivaxxers show up and only 10 provaccine parents show up, its bad.

I thought if he was, he was just on the cusp. His level 2 ASD diagnosis hit me like a ton of bricks. I hit the ground running, and found every single resource available. I now know my son is still the same beautiful, brilliant boy. With OT and SLP and an aide, he is thriving.

Today I discussed surgery with
@gorskon
and he would not concede that butter knives are better than scalpels, even though I've never performed surgery in my life. He got offended and kept avoiding discussing butter knives.
Today I discussed germ theory with a PhD. He constantly changed the topic and avoided my questions. At the end of the discussion I was asked to “have some humility” and “believe” viruses are real because “it’s the right thing to do.” His request seems pretty unscientific to me.
