In the new study, the authors surveyed 2,200 people and found 53% had some concern about the safety, efficacy or necessity of canine vaccines. Nearly 40% were concerned that vaccines could cause dogs to develop autism, a theory without any scientific merit.
It’s terrifying how fast vaccine skepticism has spread through the population, and how uninterested liberals are in counteracting it in any meaningful concerted manner.
seen several write-ups (and I think BE, whatever you think of him, just released a video on this too recently) that argue that liberals can’t actually combat conspiracy theories like this because they arise from the difference in the propaganda they spew and the reality that people can actually see in their own lives, and so they come up with all these conspiracy theories as a result to cope. Think that explains most of it.
Edit: not really much of a write up, but this is the first thing I found searching through “conspiracy” on lemmygrad so you can at least know I’m not making up people writing about this: https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/197287

Who is BE? Could you send me a link to the video or one of the articles?
bad empanada. I’m hesitant to link any videos from him because a lot of people dislike him because of his behavior online (I think the most generous description of how he acts outside of his main YT channel is “complete asshole”) and his position on China and Xinjang
Ahh ok thanks!
And we want these people to have a say in the means of production…
Help! I can feel the liberalism in me reforming!

This is why a cultural revolution period and reducation camps are sometimes not just necessary but in the long run a good thing.
How the hell does that happen? The end of communism in Russia is basic-ass history I knew since I was, like, 10.
Leaded gasoline, the standstill of Amerikkkan life, and being lied to 24/7 in different directions causes some real brainrot.

I don’t think the average American knows what communism means other than associating it with something negative. Saying a country is communist just means it’s bad.
Americans interpret political ideologies as personal moral characteristics rather than representing economic distribution systems. Capitalism just means innovative but greedy, socialist means altruistic, and communism just means scary bad things with red flags.
The poll, released Tuesday by The Economist / YouGov, found that 52 percent of Republicans agreed that Russia was operating under Communism, despite the country not being Communist since the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. Among all Americans, 42 percent thought that Russia was Communist, including 44 percent of Democrats.
real doomer hours
I think part of this is the lack of concrete understanding of what communism means to the average American. It just means “bad place that does bad things.” You could probably get a plurality of Americans to say Mexico is communist too if you frame the question right.

Hoooo boy
TIL dogs can develop autism, hm.
Dogtism
Dogtism (dogs getting autism from vaccines) could become an actual conspiracy theory.
We’re doomed

Lol this is ridiculous. Everyone knows it’s cats that are autistic, not dogs.
No shit, less than 3 hours ago at work, I heard a lady talking about not vaccinating her animals because it gives them cancer. I have previously heard the same woman talking about taking ivermectin. This story checks all the way out.
