    Michael Shermer Retweeted David Gorski, MD, PhD

    When you accuse people of being antivaxxers @gorskon you provide evidence that anyone can evaluate themselves (statements, articles, interviews, actions, etc.) If I accuse you of being an antivaxxer w/out evidence & you deny it & I say "denial=guilt" you'd reject that argument.https://twitter.com/gorskon/status/1370154131206369281 …

    Oh, please. This is a not inappropriate response to a specific denial. And he’s right. Most racists deny that they’re racist, just as most antivaxxers deny they’re antivax. This is so obvious that jokes about it were old when I was a kid. 🙄

        No, I’d laugh at you for utterly missing the point, namely that nearly all antivaxxers deny being antivax.

        Replying to @gorskon @michaelshermer

        If you start out by assuming everyone is an anti-vaxer, as Kendi assumes everyone is racist, then tell everyone who denies it that it only proves his point, then it changes the dynamics entirely.

        Most reject criticism because of the stigma attached, even left/right "wing". Reality is freedom of thought is expected and nothing should be forced (negative energy). As long as the Innocent is unharmed then thinking and beliefs is expected...imo
