1. This has been known since ancient times.
2. Some vaccines work. It's a fact that others have low efficacy. Their non-use should be welcomed for eugenic purposes.
3. True but subject to debate.
4. Anthropogenic climate change is dubious owing to the limited sample window and innate failings of proxies prior to the era of instrumentation, leading to erroneous data.
5. The observable universe is expanding
6. Incorrect as it relates to the function of language.
7. Correct.
8. Macroevolution is a hypothesis with compelling evidence. It also demonstrates that humans are divided into subspecies and some members of humanity have lower intelligence.
9. Incorrect. Science is not magical. Only people who do not understand it think of it as such.
10. No.

science isnt magic
vaccine preservatives are associated with some mitochondrial degeneration
math is not the universal language, it is a framework the human mind projects on to the world
we are not "made of stardust"
climate change is real but wrecking the economy wont fix it
chem-trails are a thing and weather manipulation has been a thing since the 70s, but most people are retarded and think any plane is a "chem trail"

the rest is correct

Populated by dumb normalfags that don't do anything science related... and bio majors. At least these are the demographics at my uni

What do you mean by "skeptic movement"? If the items in your pic constitute the movement then I think most of them are just products of popular misunderstanding. Technology gives it a voice and a community.
These guys existed before, they just didn't have as much broadcasting power.

Are there bio majors who think vaccines don't work?

No one wants to see them, which is why half of them hide behind edgy avatars.
