Thanks, antivax morons
And if you are an antivax moron: fuck you 🖕
As an autistic person that's a double fuck you from me
As an ADHD person, what was it we were talking about again?
As an autistic person with ADHD and EDS FUUUUUUCK EVERYONE IS IDIOTS EVERYWHERE! BURN IT ALL DOWN! Sorry what was I saying? Oh yeah, vax your kids.
As an ADHD person with Tourettes, FUCK
If only telling morons not to be morons was the solution to morons being morons.
Vaccines are like IT departments. When it works and everything is fine, "they do nothing and cost a lot to run", but when they're let go, things might still works for a while until it doesn't anymore and now everything is on fire.
Not vaccinating your kids works only if other kids are vaccinated. The moment a large number of kids not vaccinated anymore, that's when hell break loose.
The phrase is "What do we pay you for?" And they'll say when everything works, and when everything breaks. We're always justifying our jobs. It's why we need a union 💪.
Worst part is that for some of these people, watching their children die is not a wake up call. They form very tight groups who comfort each other as their children die, saying:
It's not your fault, you did all you can do.
This world needs a serious dosage of accountability.
Thanks Florida
Meanwhile in Florida:
No Vax? It's ok. You can still go to school and spread measles
Florida school lunch:
Turkey sandwich
Milk
Strawberry 🍓 Rubella pie
"Can you hear my measles baby (measles baby) ?"
Good episode in season 7 of ER about selfish, antivax parents watching as their helpless kid dies from measles.
ER is such a great show, it made me want to become a doctor. Of course, I didn't end up becoming one because I thought the schooling for it was more expensive than it actually was in my country, which means I probably wasn't smart enough to become one in the first place.
So true. Watched when I was a kid, but rewatching now as an adult and it holds up.
Thanks RFK
More than half the world? We talking population or countries?
Seems like an awful lot, but I have no idea about vaccines in other countries. Also do you only need 1 vaccine against measles once in your life or does it require a 2nd one later in life?
A second one later in life, IIRC.
And sometimes the second one doesn't stick. It didn't for me, and I've been seeing enough other people saying that was also the case for them that I've been suggesting my loved ones go get tested for measles immunity even if they're up-to-date on their vaccines.
Yes the second one only makes you 97% chance of not passing it on. I will need to find a good source for that, but the idea of vaccination requires mass support. Survival of the fittest isn't about the strongest. It is about those that can figure out a way to reproduce. Viruses reproduce over and over and over in a single body. A vaccine is a poster in the break room that says "known terrorist". By the time the body gets the Senate and House to declare a war or the President to start without gives reproduce processes for the virus plenty of time. 97% of the time they step up in this case, clearly not human governments. 3% of the time that virus still gets spread. If we don't isolate it enough it goes peanut butter all over our jelly. Everyone knows what it is like to clean up peanut butter. It's just nasty
Also - thanks cursed thumbnail
Totally thought it is a dick pic.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
