“Fact resistance” is a very apt term I heard the other day. Even with mountains of facts, these people dig their heels into the ground and refuse to accept that vaccines do not cause autism

Gravity is just a theory... Teach the controversy.

What pisses me off most, personally, is that he says he just wants to have a conversation about an area of scientific controversy, yet he has refused to screen my documentary.

And, in fact, a good number of them are high school dropouts, and practical none have any kind of advanced scientific education. (Ken Jeong is a licensed physician, though.)

It’s so unbelievably disloyal to your children.

It can be tough to accept the fact that your child is different. But using quackery as a means to explain it does not help your child. At all.

What will happen is the next generation will have many individuals whose parents decided to forego vaccines but they will still fall somewhere on the spectrum. Or they will die from the measles.

As a mom of a child with autism I find it mind-boggling that parents of non neurotypical kids jump on the anti-vax wagon. Because the message of the whole movement is: “It’s better to risk the life of your child than to wind up with one with autism”. It’s so unbelievably disloyal to your children. My son is perfect…

Condemning their children, along with anyone else who is allergic to vaccines or has a condition that suppresses their immune system so they can’t receive them and are especially susceptible to disease.

Yup, and the same to people who think ‘natural’ remedies are better than conventional medicine because they have less chemicals. Guess what, idiots, naturally occurring chemicals also exist and the wrong one can be just as bad for you as a man-made one!

My thing about the anti vaxxers are that most of them already have the vaccines in their systems and turned out fine. Now they are just condemning their children to horrifying diseases because of some weird fear of autism which can be proven didn’t happen to them upon receiving their vaccines.
