My fringe theory is all antivaxxers are just terrified of needles and playing the long con. They act like wimps so it tracks.
i genuinely think this plays a major factor. vaccines are unpleasant to get and you receive a subset of the symptoms of the actual disease for your trouble (because the symptoms are your immune reaction to having a disease, and the vaccine is like a scrimmage practice). a lot of these chucklefucks simply don't understand that while the vaccine isn't fun, it's far more enjoyable than dying of the disease. they'll even plan on just avoiding sick people or justify they have strong healthy bodies and don't need to worry (even though a strong healthy vaccinated body is the ideal place to stop a spread)
You guys sure think a lot of wrong things :)
If you are actually interested, you can just talk to someone who doesnt vaccinate themselves and ask why.
Its sooo simple. But not if you shut down conversations, insult people and act like are superior for doing what you are told.
What are the wrong things those guys sure think?
That people who dont vaccinate are afraid of needles or uncomfortable experiences. Its a bit like watching Fox News discuss recent events and end up wirh the conclusion that not enough exercise is causing the problem. :)
You know, this happens every time there is no actual discussions going on. People assume they know things they have no clue about and they dont even want to understand. They prefer to downvote and act superior so their little weak egos feel sarisfied. :)
