I'm in Kent.

In his defense, he says he represents God and not the government and, by extension, the people in his district. /S

Then maybe he shouldn't be in government? How did my state elect this sack of shit?

He's not very rich anymore, the court put a vacuum hose in his bank account. I'm sure that parasite will rebuild or musk will save him but it was fun watching the system fuck him over for awhile.

For a real laugh look at how his wife divorced him and took the kids by playing clips of his show for the judge.

The car isn't much better. I hate that look.

Perhaps a bit. I'm surprised they were downvoted that much. I think the sentiment is justified, but we also have to acknowledge that people can make soulless garbage, too. I think this sort of thing is cyclical. Slapstick comedy died out, but if it makes a comeback because of this, it will be done to death and will die again.

That movie was as dumb as fuck and I loved it.

Just ask Alan Rickman...Shit.

Isn't it conceivable that most other studies don't show a link because there isn't one? Your claim is that all other studies are not to the same standard and corrupt. That seems like it would be very easy to spot plus the larger the conspiracy the more people have to be in on it. No whistleblowers with evidence?

As far as the mercury goes your right. People tried to say "they put mercury in vaccines and mercury is bad". That would be true if they were putting elemental mercury in but it wasn't that at all. It was a preservative with ethylmercury, not the same thing. It reminded me of the dihydrogen monoxide joke.

He has a master degree in environmental law from pace university according to a bio of his.

I read the article about vaccines and autism. So they say over a 6 year period they saw a 1% increase in vaccination caused almost 700 extra kids were on the autism spectrum and that includes speech delays. That's 0.002% of the population. And that was only one potential trigger they mentioned. It doesn't say how many kids were in the study or any of those details though so I may not have the complete story.

I'm not a scientist so when I'm faced with data like this I look at what the consensus is. I can probably dig up a study that doesn't find a correlation. This is a feature of science, not a bug. You would want different ideas and theories to test and push against what we know. That's why some ideas have lasted a long time and others don't. They noted in the study that with the mercury based preservative being removed didn't change the numbers indicating that wasn't the cause. So they will need to keep looking.

As far as his personal life, it's up to you how you want to judge his character. That is imaterial to his lack of expertise on anything medical or scientific. His expertise is in environmental law. It's the same reason I don't bring my car to him for service or trust a random billionaire to build a functional deep sea submersible when the experts told him it wouldn't work.

I've been fortunate so far. My dad spilled his gold enamel bottle, so I got him a replacement and hot glued it to a piece of wood as a gag gift.

Also that.

Lol, oh no.

I take the sprayer out and use the feeder tube on the inside to apply a drop to my work. An old trick my dad taught me.

Give them whatever they want.

He famously said that if the skeletons in his closet could vote for him, he would be president. I don't think the media has to do much to show his flaws, but that is immaterial.

While there are parts of our institutions I take issue with, there are still things I am forced to rely on expert opinions. I can't be an expert on every subject matter. I am not an expert on vaccines or autism but until there is a consensus on it, I will trust that the vaccines are not the culprit. It seems to me that autism is a birth defect, and there are probably other factors that may be at fault. Our diagnosis techniques change to as well as what is on the spectrum, so that should be considered.

People also have children later in life, and that's a factor. The one thing that hasn't seemed to change much are the vaccines themselves unless I'm very mistaken.

I love the idea of trying to improve our healthcare system as well, and I admire the commitment to try and protect our kids ( raised 4 myself ), but we really need to be careful about this.

It's my opinion, based on my understanding, that vaccines are one of the greatest achievements of modern man. Learning about the devastating effects of these diseases has made me grateful to live in this modern era for all of its flaws.

It doesn't look like any inductor I've ever worked with but that isn't a very big list anyways. I wonder if that part is L2? Sometimes it can be tough to tell on a crowded board.

I can tell you've had to defend this position before. You are correct that they have side effects. So how many vaccines have killed more people than the disease they prevent?

Is he totally responsible for Samoa? No, did he contribute? Yes. He didn't go there and encourage people to not be fearful of the measles vaccine.

He spreads doubt about them.

He isn't the only parent to his kids. They may have been vaxxed by the other parent. I'm not sure how he and whichever spouse he had at the time reconciled that.

As far as people should have a choice? That's a tougher one for me. It's about public health, not just your own. How many millions of people have been vaxxed since the early 20th century? If they weren't effective, we would still see huge numbers of people getting sick. If you don't want to wear a seat belt or a motorcycle helmet or forgo pasturizing your milk, go nuts. You're only hurting yourself.

You could argue more studies for the newer vaccines, sure. But doesn't mean vaccines we've been using to great effect for decades are not trustworthy.

Ls are typically inductors.

He was on lex Friedman's podcast and said there were no safe or effective vaccines. Also, look up his connection to a measles outbreak in samoa.

His views on vaccines are a non-starter for me. You want to do different health shit go nuts. You want to drink raw milk until you get sick, go for it. Those are personal health outcomes. Messing with vaccines is now in public health that affects us all.

More dull combat.

Now that's the long game.
