How To Talk To Anti-Vaccine Advocates Without Your Head Exploding
This article starts with Ad Hom moves on to manipulation and ends with idiocy. This is my breakdown.
There's an open-minded thinker for you.... it's dripping with hypocrisy.
And just after that, the clear motivations surface for the article.
You bet. How would this writer like it if his doctor got to call all the shots for his health? Suddenly there would be complaints. Where's informed consent for admittedly risky choices?
If by reasonable people he means pro-vaccine tyrants. Tyrants who like to say things like "prison is the right place for parents who don't vaccinate."
He claims that we won't hear reason so he goes into the next strategy of manipulation.
He then goes on to associate organic food and autism. Vaccine critics have been long pointing out the erroneous nature of assuming correlation equals causation but still the sheep keep pushing the numbers that show diseases dropping around the same time period as vaccines were introduced, ignoring the other things introduced at that time, also. (Improved sanitation, for example)
Until it's your two year old who suddenly stops talking and making eye-contact after a vaccine reaction.
But it's not anecdote that autism-vaccine study data have been manipulated by scientist-believers in vaccines, and they have the motive to manipulate all on their own, since they don't want to see the measles resurge and their confirmation bias doesn't let them see what is going on, themselves. They forget that the measles parties that spread the disease widely are a thing of the past.
Actually, if the airlines were cited for manipulating safety data we'd have a good comparison. So how about we look at the most popular drugs like Zantac, Yaz, VIOXX, etc? People died and were injured due to sugar-coating the truth or not seeking it at all. People die or are injured all the time from Big Pharma screw-ups and crimes.
The same cannot be said of Boeing at this time.
Do we need to expose the foolishness behind this argument? It's just an appeal to authority, and a flawed one at that!
Water is not inherently risky when clean and taken as directed. The same cannot be said of vaccines.
As if I feel safe around vaccinated children that are shedding live viruses. Mmmkay.
I can't get the MMR as a mom because the Rubella might harm the baby I could conceive, if I'm not already pregnant. So why would I want that live virus in my kids, anyway? It certainly does not make me feel any safer. I want to stay away from recently vaccinated children like that
And don't get me started on Pertussis.
Plus, nobody puts my kids at risk when they say no to something like tetanus. How retarded this overgeneralized argument is!
