    I try never to mock vaccine adverse parents for their decision not to vaccinate—with one exception. I do sometimes mock the LEADERS of the antivaccine movement and the pseudoscientists who enable them. They're the ones who recruit new antivaxers.https://twitter.com/xeni/status/1064867810441015296 …

    We mock poor people for dumb anti vax decisions, but the rich white folks are the worst. I’ve seen it in LA. Health woo is to many progressives what magical trump thinking is to many conservatives, in the sense that it’s a shared belief in falsehood with dire consequences.

        Averse, not adverse. Predictive typing strikes again.

        I agree, people think they are making the best decision for their child when they choose not to vaccinate. They don't trust the science, except for Wakefield. They see him as a victim of the status quo and big pharma's political influence.

        Too many parents are provided convincing and rational-sounding misinformation about vaccines, not to mention outright lies and misrepresentation of data. I can't blame overwhelmed parents for trying to make the best decision with what info they've heard.

        Typo/spelling flames are the absolute lamest of flames on Twitter and sometimes, if I'm in a bad mood, will result in immediate muting or blocking.

        The people making bad anti-vax decisions are the same rich, entitled white folks who think vitamin C or yoga will cure everything.
