Jesus, 3 posts in...

For the record, the political affiliation for anti-vaxers is mixed. At 1st, it was the left pushing it. Now, it's the alt-right to protect religious liberties.

The worst part is people call them "anti" vaccinations. This is mostly false. Most just want proper safety testing and cleaner vaccines w/out the toxic adjuvants and preservatives.

Calling people something they are not is not the best way to proceed on this issue.

You know, that leaves a lot of ways to be interpreted.

He cited long debunked studies linking vaccines to autism on the Senate floor. He is a nimrod.

He may be a Democrat, but he is the Southern Baptists' puppet. Will Hall says jump and Milkovich asks how high.

Well, there has been smoke to that issue before. CDC got caught burying studies that showed some minor correlation. Shortly after, mercury was removed from MMR. Coincidence?

Now also take a look at recent studies showing links between aluminum toxicity (aluminum is a highly potent neurotoxin) and many issues like alzheimers, autism, etc. Many vaccines have aluminum in their adjuvants to invoke immune system responses. This is where the attention needs to be placed by all sides. There is a lot of evidence pointing to this being a problem.

Instead of looking at modern data, people like to fall back on MSM stories (yeah, the MSM was honest back then, right?) trying to paint anyone questioning the issue as crazy conspiracy theorists.

This doesn't even get into vaccination schedules where children are given multiple vaccines at once when there has been ZERO studies on the safety of doing such a thing.

This whole topic needs to be taken seriously by everyone. If we all work together, we can probably find a way to make safe and clean vaccines with much less risk than the current batches.

And if you think any of this is hyperbole, I'd highly suggest reading up about "science day" at Merck's ongoing trial. That should be enough to get anyone to take the topic seriously.

more cases can be linked to deodorant usage

I agree. Quit attaching useless information to vaccines.

To be honest, this is a serious issue. I'll agree with you on that.

The misinformation out there is the biggest issue.

The extremely low percentage of children who die from vaccinations should not be considered an anomaly and covered up. The risks of vaccinations are out there. What else do you need?

He is an idiot.

That said I don't remember measles being that deadly when I was a kid. I got the Chicken Pox and the Mumps but never got the measles although many in my school did. I don't remember anybody dying of it. I guess we got vaccinated somewhere along the line.

He’s not wrong about that. Alex Jones is very big on anti-vaccination. Specifically he wants people to be aware of the risks, push for more studies, more testing, more information on vaccines. Vaccines are highly unregulated, which is absurd considering it’s something everyone puts in their body

A large portion of the push against them is that vaccines shouldn’t be mandated. If there is a legal precedent to force people to take something into their body that is deemed “good for them” by medical boards, there’s a lot of risk for corruption

ETA: I like Alex Jones, but his vaccination stuff is one thing I disagree with him on. I think he goes too hard on them, which encourages people not to use them. I think we need to make changes to vaccines to remove the additives and make them safer and more consistent, but I think people need to take them now as is

Hey dude guess what! Nearly 100% of Americans with cancer use toilet paper daily. Toilet paper must be causing cancer.

Vaccines are already safe.

There has not.

This is not true. There has never been shown to be a correlation between vaccines and autism.

Thimerosal was never in the MMR vaccine, dumbass. Even if it had been, the type of mercury contained within does not bioaccumulate and is in no way harmful at the volume of a vaccine.

quote:

The aluminum levels in vaccines are negligible and also shown not to accumulate in the body.

You mean like every single study that shows there's no link and that you're a dipshit?

153,000 results on the safety of vaccine schedules on google scholar, champ.

It is - which is why we know definitively that vaccines do not cause autism.

We did that in the 60s. You're welcome.

I understand both concepts. That doesn’t mean I agree with a legal precedent to force someone to take an injection. That’s a very leftist thing to say you’d rather violate the personal rights of one person bc you believe it’s better for the majority

Then you understand why individuals should be forced to take the vaccines absent any contraindications.

It's a very Republican thing to say you'd rather not give something not harmful to an individual and allow them to possibly kill dozens to hundreds to people just so their feelings aren't hurt.
