I think the term anti-vaxx means: "People who believe medical treatments should not be given or forced based on blind faith and should be subject to intellectual inquiry, evidence, logic, reason, and open debate and discussion and even democratic discourse prior to political action" But, I don't call that anti-vaxx, I just call that a ra…
I think the term anti-vaxx means: "People who believe medical treatments should not be given or forced based on blind faith and should be subject to intellectual inquiry, evidence, logic, reason, and open debate and discussion and even democratic discourse prior to political action" But, I don't call that anti-vaxx, I just call that a rational human. Being rational is a choice, so calling this a mass formation psychosis does not in any way take away responsibility. Giving into fear and choosing not to think is a choice. There is an intersection between psychology, ethics and free will.
To me this is like, if there was an epidemic of typhus-spreading lice, and the doctor told you to take a bath in cyanide to get rid of them, would you not question the doctor’s credentials and/or sanity? To me the danger of these shot is as obvious as the danger of taking a bath in cyanide. I knew they were dangerous from a priori logic before they even came out. And how stupid would you have to be to think that cyanide is safe just because the doctor told you it is? Isn’t even the average person qualified to know that’s dangerous?
