> but the anti-vax stuff comes from increase in autism
Yeah, Jenny McCarthy the big liberal feminist playboy model who has no authority on anything did "research" by reading hippy crystal healers and publicly pushed this idea that vaccines caused autism in her kid.
She is a spoiled rich lefty "activist" who just cant deal with the fact her barren ass pumped out a kid with autism and needed some sort of excuse as to why it happened.
Nobody at all took her or the hippies seriously.

There was tons of studies and never a single link was ever proven.
The "increase in autism" has to do with the fact "autism" is a "spectrum" now and people who would have not been called autistic in the 80s are now being "diagnosed" with autism despite being fully functioning members of society.

The vaccines and the boosters havent changed in the last 60 years, they havent added new vaccines, but the "rise" in "autism" since the 90s has been huge.

> 2years of absolute "take the vax wear the mask or starve to death in your home". Eat shit and die.
Case in point everyone.
Valid concerns over a brand new type of vaccine was politicized.
Whether you trust the covid vax or not is up to you.

But that has NOTHING to do with ALL of the other tried and true vaccines that you, and dad, and grandpa and great grandpa got, which kids still get.
If you let the last 2 years of a new vaccine somehow blind you and make you side with the fucking crystal healing hippies, unironically kill yourself.

The WHOLE ARGUMENT against the Covid vax was that it was NOT SAFE LIKE THE OLD VACCINES were.
And now people who didnt like the covid vaccine are going to blanket not vaccinate their kids with the safe ones?

Clown fucking world indeed.

>yeah its not like humans haven't been working with polymers for over a hundred years or anything
True, which is why we know how carcinogenic some are. And while it was just assumed if you werent there during the production of them, or you werent burning them in the trash, you were safe enough.
Too bad we now know of measurable microplastics in the water and in the air, which have been showing up in the feces and blood of people, even infants in some cases.
People who are not working directly exposed in those factories.

This is objective fact, they are everywhere in everyone, with PFAS and other compounds tainting pretty much everyone on earth.
You should look into it, pretty interesting stuff

>why are tinfoil schizo crackpot cranks always extremely terrible with logic?
Ive always wondered that myself.

People get upset about the whole microplastic thing when they hear "we dont have conclusive evidence for that yet" seeing how its a discover that is only around 15 years old.
They expect peer reviewed, quantified damage done from exposure of microplastics, studies which are typical done over generations of people done upon death and disease statistics.

So since there isnt been a peer reviewed paper that says "its bad, and here is exactly every single link of why its bad" they stick their head in the sand and pretend its not a problem.
They know of the studies showing that in a lab, the microplastics are toxic to human cells, and that they know of the carcinogenic ratings given 60 years ago to plastic production. But until they see it in writing, its not real!

Too bad none of that really matters as we arent talking strictly microplastics in the water.
We are talking about burning and melting plastic, in your bedroom, where studies have shown they greatly fill a room with plastic microparticles, even with PLA.

Good logic to think its harmless until mr scientist puts out a paper amirite?

>at least I don't have negative net worth
Of course
On McDonalds wages, $1000 for something you will have the rest of your life is just not in the cards.
You can just hop into the dumpster and be proud of it!

>the people who championed at-will work environments and right to work laws suddenly realizing that giving your employer 100% of all leverage and all power wasnt in their best interest
