That image of the kid holding up the “I want my raw milk” sign; it makes me sad for her. She is just trying to follow her basic needs, fitting in with your family / tribe. She doesn’t yet have the ability to critically examine the evidence.
Though it does give me a reminder of a very cool story from a few years ago. A small group of students 16yo’s in Wellington, went and got their vaccines, their parents were antivax. Their parents hit the fucken roof when they found out…public opinion was almost 100% on side of the kids.
The stupid are a self solving problem.
Nope. Anti-vaxxers.
Stupid adults harm their kids.
These people probably overlap quite heavily with the anti-vax people; it is their kids and all other people around them that are harmed.
Yes. The perpetration of harm is the only reason we can’t just let it sort itself out. I agree.

But before they’re solved they’ll create even more chaos and bullshit.
If only they’d do so quicker, and without doing harm to others and society first.
Darwin, and the associated awards are certain evidence in agreement
