Holy smokes. This is my new GOP representative, and the clip is worse than the description. Claims that the CDC has "fraudulently managed" data. https://www.tennessean.com/videos/news/politics/2018/12/12/u-s-rep-e-elect-mark-green-falsely-claims-vaccines-cause-autism/2288837002/ … via @Tennessean

You shouldn't be surprised. Antivaxers have successfully co-opted the language of anti-regulation, small government, "freedom," and "parental rights."

As a result of the successful co-optation by antivaxers of the language of "freedom," even though antivaccine views have roughly the same prevalence on the left and the right, the
@GOP has become the antivaccine party.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/10/25/the-republican-party-has-become-the-antivaccine-party/ …4 replies 2 retweets 27 likes -

That bit by
@DrMarkGreen4TN about the@CDCgov having "fraudulently managed" data comes straight from an antivaccine conspiracy theory known as the#CDCwhistleblower. The idea is that the CDC "knew" vaccines cause autism but covered it up.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/12/12/brian-hookers-antivaccine-pseudoscience-has-risen-from-the-dead-to-threaten-children-again/ …4 replies 1 retweet 24 likes -

Ah, a rat study looking at a chemical that is not used as a preservative in vaccines. Ri-ight.

So, instead of being a jerk, explain why you will insult another doctor for expressing parent's concerns about preservatives in vaccines instead of offering professional courtesy and real dialog. No one will listen to a jerk who demeans their worries.

Your comments suggest to me that you don't have an open mind. But if I'm too sarcastic for you, I can show you multiple sources who are far more polite. I suspect you will find reasons to discount them too, as you appear predisposed to believe in the conspiracy theory.
