Boy I sure love the combination of people not vaccinating their dogs for rabies anymore and the huge number of people bringing their dogs into every single store regardless of rules, laws, and regulations. I feel like that’s going to go super well. Fantastic.

Btw very random but the fact that people would literally rather have their child they made and supposedly love die of horrific but preventable diseases than them live with autism is so absolutely wild. Surely even if vaccines caused autism (they don't, of fuckin course not), surely it's better to risk a child being autistic BUT ALIVE. Do. Do you not want your child to live? Tell me

I- uhh- no?
Marcella didn’t die from the vaccination, she died from the uncleaned needle because it was fucking 1915, so people were stupid.
STOP USING ANN AND ANDY AS ANTI-VAX SYMBOLS! (Idk if they still do this, just wanted to point out the blatant lying here)
PS: I’m pretty sure Marcella died after the patent was filed
PPS: YES SHE DID! SHE DIED NOVEMBER 8, JUST OVER 2 MONTHS AFTER THE PATENT WAS FILED!

One time when I was in a public speaking class in college this girl gave a persuasive speech on why we should ban GMOs and vaccines because she claimed they’re giving children autism and I sat with my jaw on the floor her entire speech and then next class (2 days later) I had to give my presentation so I scrapped my entire original presentation and did extensive research on the benefits of both and just stared her down the entire time I gave speech and she cried

Just read an article about a study concluding there was no link between the covid vaccine and changes in menstruation.
The metric they used was the number of people who went to the hospital because of heavy menstruation.
Now, I am not going to claim that this entire study was conducted by folks who have never menstruated, because I have no data on the study designers.
But I am going to strongly imply that anyone who thinks anything short of actually bleeding out would get a menstruating person to go to the hospital during an airborne pandemic, and when almost all concerns about menstruation UP TO AND INCLUDING "I BLEED INTO MY ABDOMINAL CAVITY EVERY MONTH" ARE SHRUGGED OFF BY THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY isn't listening to people who menstruate and probably shouldn't be publishing studies that will absolutely be used as the basis for future medical decisions.

As a Transhumanist I have a moral obligation to support every humans right to bodily augmentation/alteration/autonomy. Now I will clarify what I mean by that:
I'm not sexually attracted to transgender people but I support their right to correct their own hormonally wayward bodies. Believe me, I've tried to see their erotic/aesthetic appeal but it's not happening. I think it would be very dumb to base one's politics entirely on one's kinks.
Speaking of kinks, lets talk about breeding, or rather the opposite of it. My definition of personhood does not include "people living inside of, or fused with, other people" so anyone with a uterus should be allowed to get an abortion without being charged with murder. Zygotes, embryos, and fetuses don't have their own bodies so they don't get to have bodily autonomy. Any argument that can be made to defend the unborn can also be used to defend the rights of tumors, bacteria, and viruses to occupy the body.
Which brings me to my next point, I despise anti-vaxxers on principle. Their definition of augmentation and physical harm is not based on scientific evidence. Scientists have died studying effective methods of disease control. Rather than respect their sacrifices, they instead trust the lies of grifters. I am consoled that their lifespans are truncated by their own choices. But I am saddened that they unintentionally take other lives to the grave with them.
In conclusion, the flesh is not inherently perfect but through science, it can be, for a little while at least. Death comes for us all but it is a natural process that can be understood and delayed.

Watching a doc on vaccines and autism and how they are (shockingly) not connected
I already knew that
I wasn't vaccinated and I'm still autistic

Hot take: If you are anti-vaccination then you are pro child death.
Children have died of measles and mumps who should still be alive, all because of the Lancet MMR autism fraud and Andrew Wakefield. The MMR vaccines literally save lives.
If you are anti-vaccination then you are pro child death.

Just before 7 am on March 3, Danny Lemoi posted an update in his hugely popular pro-ivermectin Telegram group, Dirt Road Discussions: “HAPPY FRIDAY ALL YOU POISONOUS HORSE PASTE EATING SURVIVORS !!!”
Hours later, Lemoi was dead.
For the last decade, Lemoi had taken a daily dose of veterinary ivermectin, a dewormer designed to be used on large animals like horses and cows. In 2021, as ivermectin became a popular alternative COVID-19 treatment among anti-vaxxers, he launched what became one of the largest Telegram channels dedicated to promoting the use of it, including instructions on how to administer ivermectin to children.
But despite Lemoi’s death, the administrators of his channel are pushing his misinformation—even as his followers share their own worrying possible side effects from taking ivermectin and some question the safety of the drug.
Lemoi, a heavy equipment operator who lived in Foster, Rhode Island, “passed away unexpectedly” on March 3, according to an online obituary post by his family last week. He was survived by his parents and brother. The obituary gave no details about the cause of his death.
In the Telegram channel, administrators broke the news of his death to his followers. “Though it was obvious that Danny had the biggest heart, it was unbeknownst to him that his heart was quite literally overworking and overgrowing beyond its capacity, nearly doubled in size from what it should have been,” the admins wrote, adding: “We understand that this is going to raise questions for those who were following him.”
The admins added that Lemoi had undergone testing on his heart last year, but the results had shown no cause for concern.
Lemoi began taking the version of ivermectin designed for animals on a daily basis in 2012, after he was diagnosed with Lyme disease, according to a detailed account of his medical history he gave on a podcast last November. He said then that five months after first taking the drug, he quit all other treatments and believed ivermectin had “regenerated” his heart muscle.
During the pandemic, Ivermectin became hugely popular among anti-vaxxers, many of whom were taking and recommending the veterinary formulation of the drug, rather than the one designed for human use. While ivermectin for humans is used to treat serious illnesses like river blindness, it has repeatedly been shown to be an ineffective treatment for COVID-19.
And according to the Missouri Poison Center, ingesting large doses of ivermectin formulated for animals has a long list of side effects, including seizures, coma, lung issues, and heart problems. Veterinary ivermectin is not a cure or effective treatment for COVID, the FDA has repeatedly warned, and is highly concentrated because it is designed for large animals like horses and cows. “Such high doses can be highly toxic in humans,” the FDA cautions.
“Danny was fully convinced that his heart had regenerated after his incident with Lyme disease that almost ended in congestive heart failure,” the admins wrote, before claiming that “a family history of heart disease and chronic stress” were why his heart had ultimately become engorged. “All of his other organs were unremarkable,” the admins wrote. “And this was determined to be a death by unfortunate natural causes.”
The admins of Lemoi’s channel did not respond to VICE News’ questions about where they got their information about his death. Lemoi’s surviving family did not respond to VICE News' request for comment on the cause of his death.
But a review of Lemoi’s Telegram channels shows that many of his followers who are taking his dosage recommendations, or “protocols,” for veterinary ivermectin are experiencing numerous known side effects of taking the drug.
“I’m 4 months now and all hell’s breaking loose, all pain has hit my waist down with sciatic, shin splints, restless leg syndrome, tight sore calves & it feels like some pain in the bones,” a member wrote on Friday.
Lemoi explained away the negative side effects of taking veterinary ivermectin by describing them as “herxing,” a real term to describe an adverse response that occurs in people who take antibiotics as a treatment for Lyme disease.
“My wife has been taking ivermectin for 3 months,” a member wrote Friday. “She is being treated for autoimmune hepatitis, thyroid, and vertebrae issues. She has had some serious HERXING. Today she has a migraine, vomiting and severe stomach pain. Does anyone have any ideas how to help, and are these HERXING symptoms?”
Some members of the group are taking ivermectin not only as a treatment against COVID, but as a cure-all for almost every disease—from cancer and depression, to autism and ovarian cysts—believing that every disease is caused by a parasite that is removed from the body by ivermectin, just as animals are given the drug to treat parasitic worms like tapeworm.
Lemoi also formulated an ivermectin regimen for children, and numerous members of the group reported that they were using it. This week alone one member wrote that she had established another group for “parents of children on the spectrum, cerebral palsy, pans/panda, downs etc.,” who are using the Lemoi’s recommended children’s dosage.

When some members of the group blamed Lemoi’s death on ivermectin, they were criticized in the Telegram channel; their fellow group members claimed they were spreading misinformation.
​​“No one can convince me that he died because of ivermectin,” one member wrote this week. “He ultimately died because of our failed western medicine which only cares about profits and not the cure.”
Despite Lemoi’s death, administrators said this week the Telegram channel would live on, and the group is attracting new members who continue to take ivermectin despite suffering serious side effects.
“I am very new to this... I’ve been on Bimectin paste for 20 days,” one new member wrote on Friday morning, explaining that he too was suffering from Lyme disease. “I have severe chest pain. Costochondritis symptoms. Air hunger, internal tremors, brain fog, headaches on the back of my head, anxiety, depression, doom and gloominess.”
Oh...just remembering all the MAGA freaks on here that were foaming at the mouth over ivermectin and wondering why @staff never gave us a "report medical misinformation" option...

I think Andrew Wakefield deserves to lose everything at the very least.
Primarily for enabling a generations worth of scientific disinformation, pseudoscience and neurotypical ableism.
Thanks to his stupid MMR vaccine bullshit! Empowering stupid ill-informed creatures what are now giving their kids fucking Bronze Age diseases because they supposedly did their own research!
And for such bullshit stigmatising and dehumanising autistic folks like me all over the world!
Like he should be hit with several MASSIVE lawsuits UP THE ASS!!!
For all of that shit!
Several times over!
Can somebody please get to that! Perhaps even several people?
Seriously.

Florida, where they protect the children from knowledge, but not from deadly diseases. The article mentions the 114 unvaccinated children at risk - but misses the meaning of the MMR failure rate. Another estimated 29 children who HAVE been vaccinated could be at risk...and there's no way to tell which ones those might be.
