its an oldskool late 90s hoax that was debunked 10 years ago.

>An investigation by journalist Brian Deer found that Andrew Wakefield, the author of the original research paper linking the vaccine to autism, had multiple undeclared conflicts of interest,[9][10] had manipulated evidence,[11] and had broken other ethical codes. The Lancet paper was partially retracted in 2004, and fully retracted in 2010, when Lancet's editor-in-chief Richard Horton described it as "utterly false" and said that the journal had been "deceived".[12] Wakefield was found guilty by the General Medical Council of serious professional misconduct in May 2010 and was struck off the Medical Register, meaning he could no longer practice as a doctor in the UK.[13] In 2011, Deer provided further information on Wakefield's improper research practices to the British Medical Journal, which in a signed editorial described the original paper as fraudulent.[14][15] The scientific consensus is the MMR vaccine has no link to the development of autism, and that this vaccine's benefits greatly outweigh its risks.

>Wakefield's paper was described as "perhaps, the most damaging medical hoax of the last 100 years".[16] Physicians, medical journals, and editors[17][18][19][20][21] have described Wakefield's actions as fraudulent and tied them to epidemics and deaths

The 'sources' Tao Lin mentions: Weston A Price Foundation, Stephanie Seneff both refer to Wakefield's paper.

>the fact that it's actually diagnosed
Any sort of actual autism would have certainly been noticed back then; if they just threw them into asylums for being retarded with unknown cause, there would be records of this.
I doubt it's an issue of nurture either, since the "just man up" approach you'd have seen back then doesn't fix the kind of autism we see today. Not social awkwardness, actual developmental disability.
Processed foods just seems like a boogeyman. Sure it's unhealthy and you certainly shouldn't be eating it as a child, but unless you're feeding your baby a pound of smoked hot dogs every day they're not going to be consuming any dangerous substances in amounts that matter. Processed foods aren't toxic, they're just shit quality. Not to mention all the commonplace chemicals old kids would have been exposed to, lead paint and cancer-inducing pesticides the like.

What makes you say that? Injecting a bunch of different chemicals, clearly labeled and known to be dangerous as alluded to in the letter in op, into a baby, could have a negative effect on that babies biochemical, physiological, physical, psychological, development, I dont see how one can say it could not. It is just: a lot of people get vaccines and come out ''''normal'''', an amount of people do not come out normal before they are even of age to take vaccine:

So nature, biology, human life, is fickle and fragile to degrees to begin with. There is fas, and there is second hand smoke, and there are crack babies, it may not take much to ''''significantly'''' impact a babies development by adding these chemicals here or those chemicals there.

our gut flora becomes harmful when the balance of probiotics to obligate flora is thrown off. bone broth contains no fibre so it does not feed harmful bacteria and allows non deformed new gut cells to grow again. Introduction of probiotics after restores the ratio of beneficial to harmful bacteria in the guts.

antibiotics will actually destroy beneficial probiotics in your digestive tract.
It's not that you can't take them, it's just that if you have weakened probiotic counts due to past neglect or history of illness, the course of antibiotics you take may full well destroy enough beneficial bacteria to allow the obligate and potentially harmful bacteria colonies in the gut to multiply unregulated.

When they are not controlled by the larger number of helpful bacteria, the obligate type of gut bacteria can overrun the gut and in doing so produce harmful chemicals that when processed by the body can manifest in negative physical/psychological symptoms.

Depending on the types of obligate gut bacteria we have, everyone's symptoms of improper gut health can look different. Many of the foods we eat now do not nourish the digestive system and many people (especially young children being fed formula instead of breastmilk for example) have weakened flora counts prior to vaccine and antibiotics administration, which is what is causing the problems, not the drugs themselves.

If you have to get a vaccine, take an antibiotic or have dental work done, it is advised to improve your probiotic counts (you can do this by eating organic yogurts and naturally fermented vegetables)

Vaccines may cause autism in this amount of people _________________

The people that are afraid of the latter more than the former, would like to not give their children vaccine:

This is where the hysterics comes into play, for good reason, and it is due to democracy:

We don't want our child to take these vaccines: well, we, the majority have voted that it is the law, so either you take them, or move out of america.

Thats that.

Whats that, the majority votes to make vaccines not mandatory?

Scientists now say that all those diseases have greater chances of coming back:

Imagine there’s an infectious disease spreading through your community. It leaves some people crippled; others die from it.

That's what a vaccine is though. You get a little dose of the virus/disease and your body makes stuff to counteract it. Now the body is ready to fight the disease if you were to ever catch it

This is such a stupid comment. Look, there's nothing wrong with spouting conspiracy theories on your own time and when they're harmless. but spreading misinformation and asking parents not to vaccinate their kid could potentially leave that child at risk. This isn't about the whole dogmatic science thing( which I agree is annoying) its about how Lin is literally spreading ignorant, and frankly stupid, ideas to his fans that have the potential to hurt children. There's tons of information proving the whole "vaccine cause autism" theory false. Furthermore, Lin's own research seems narrow and unreliable.

It's an inevitable feature of the large scale society. Our lives are affected by an increasing number of factors outside our own control. For example, the complexity of the global world - even the sheer number of events - is more than any one person can understand. We are forced to rely on specialist sources to condense this information into a narrative so we can see how trends will affect us. Different sources present different narratives according to their own motivations. You can never be sure what you're getting is the truth. Indeed there are many versions of the truth.
In my opinion science is corrupted via its own scale. It's hard to know who funds what research, whether research is being suppressed, whether it's simply bullshit. Doubly since dissemination of politically important scientific results occurs through the global media complex.
In the end all you can do is trust your own eyes.

You can't. Everyone is specialized to a few of countless fields of expertise. And even within those there is more than enough room for error. How am i supposed to know if neonicotine based insecticides disproportionately fuck with pollinators? I'm not a biologist. All we can do is to inform yourself about the status of the current scientific discourse and hope its working properly. And even the capacity to do so is limited to a few problems we choose through personal interest.

That's what I meant with hope its working properly. There's not just the problem of agenda since science became a career choice with a lot of pressure to publish.

I believe they kill the virus by heating it up, and the vaccine is the dead virus cells. Supposedly they don't cause harm because they're dead, and the body still creates the suitable antibodies.

Hi Tao! I recently finished Tai Pei and am looking forward to Leave Society. (Do we have a date on that yet?) While I enjoyed your novel I felt it lacked a satisfying conclusion. The first 1/3 of it made sense to me - the ramping up of the character and establishment of his life - though I may not have accurately represented it here, I think you accurately captured the kind of bored and slightly depressed sensibility common to the modern expereince. The second part also made sense, as Paul just spiraled into crazy drug abuse, not necessarily out of addiction -- though I felt that that was an element -- but more, again, out of a sense of boredom, alost nihilistic but not quite. But I think the novel kind of got caught in that cycle of drug use and depression, and while that was perhaps the point, I seem to recall some strange shroom trip at the end where Paul seemingly had an epiphany, which to me felt rather shallow and trite. I hope your next novel can improve upon that.
