What does that have to do with the fact that you use garbage sources of information that take advantage of you?

We really need you to do better. America cannot continue as long as a large portion of its population chooses willful ignorance."

During the pandemic when we all had plenty of time to waste I decided to do a deep dive into how the whole anti vax thing got started and found a great book on the subject- The Doctor Who Fooled the World by Brian Deer. It's quite the riveting read! I turns out we've had waves of anti vax movements for two centuries but the modern movement (and most damaging one) can pretty much be traced to Dr. Andrew Wakefield. Wakefield is British and started his quackery (or grift shall I say?) in the Uk eventually transporting it to the US to prey on the likes of the Jenny McCarthey's of the world.

Fun fact- you want to know the first ever vaccine mandate in the US? That would be George Washington mandating the Continental US army that they either had to get vaccines or wear red coats!
