Question:

[DURHAM D]

Do you know anyone who is a Democrat who is also anti-vax?

I do not.

[RockRaven]

2. Oh yes. Granola/crunchie/yoga types.

There's a big antivax contingent amongst self-identified liberals/progressives/democrats who arrive at their antivax position (or justify it thusly, anyway) via naturalistic fallacy.

[unblock]

3. JFK jr?

[DURHAM D]

4. I mean personally.

Are you actual friends with JFK Jr?

[unblock]

5. No, not since that thing at the place that one time....

But I do know a few democrats who are anti-vax. That said, I know more democrats who are merelyvaccine-hesitant from not knowing enough to ignore the nutjobs.

And the democratic anti-vaxxers I know are quiet about it. Only the Republican ones are militant and aggressive

9. I mean, considering he's deceased, is anyone friends with JFK Jr?

[Skittles]

6. no

I know a couple who were slow to GET the shots, but ultimately they did get them

[2naSalit]

7. Nope.

All the antivaxers I know are people I avoid but have to deal with and they are either Rs or they don't participate. I have one relative, by marriage, who isn't even a US citizen but bitches about our politics through the lens of the Q crowd.

The people I call my friends are all vaxxed to the max and follow protocols.

8. two kinds, really

1. blacks who are reminded of the tuskegee experiments and

2. "mr natural"

i was a little suspicious of anything approved by the trump appointees at fda, but once the great exaggerator was defeated i became a little more confident.

[Emile]

10. No, all the anti-vax people I know are Republicans!
