"It's too much liquid."
Transcript: "It's inconvenient. Ugh, you're gonna have to go back another year later. You're gonna go back each year for 4 years, 5 years, 3 years. Just break it up, break it up because it's too much liquid. Too many different things are going into that baby at too big a--too big a number. The size of this thing when you look at it. It's like 80 different vaccines and beyond vaccines. 80. Then you give that to a little kid."
editor's note: babies are not being given anywhere close to 80 vaccines.
tfw you want to pander to anti-vaxxers but don't care enough to learn what their preferred pseudoscience objections to vaccines are.
When bigots say "I'm not afraid of trans people, so I can't be transphobic," they're confessing to scaremongering about us without actually believing their own lies
I am so *incredibly* sick of people just randomly blaming everything they don’t like on the internet - or, worse yet, just mindlessly scaremongering about the internet and its “effect on society” without the slightest idea of the actual precedents there are in history for the internet.
A really solid example is the invention and popularisation of the moveable-type printing press in the early modern period. Its effect on mass communication and the democratisation of knowledge and communication is very comparable.
It’s pretty reasonable to say that the main reason the Protestant Reformation happened when it did was because Martin Luther, unlike, say, William Wytcliffe, a 14th century English proto-Protestant, had access to the printing press and could put out pamphlets, meaning his evolving ideas could reach a potentially huge - and *very interested* - mass audience.
This wasn’t even limited by literacy rates, which were growing at the time, because there was also a huge culture of reading out loud and debating in most urban centres at the time, particularly in Germany and the Low Countries. And, given how quick and easy pamphlets were to print and distribute, it didn’t take long for pamphleteering wars to break out. I entirely stopped giving any credence to people claiming the internet was causing “the death of civility in society” after I read one of Thomas More’s (yes, the martyr *Saint* Thomas More, who is somehow *still* regarded as a stately and dignified man of conscience) flame war replies to Luther where he said “your shitty mouth, truly the shit-pool of all shit, all the muck which your damnable rottenness has vomited up”.
......wait, what?
there comes Lie, then comes damned Lie, and then there comes statistics .

This is how the big businesses "drives" the people crazy.
This is NOT how the autism works. its solely the improvement in awareness and diagnosis. There are literally no way to prove from past. we havent any time machines. and there are millions of ways to overcomplicate and misinterpret data, given that many researches carried out in the drive of market, and also a lot of academicians are horribly ableist. This particular dataset is being abhorrently misused.
