Well it IS an unscripted interview. If you've ever nervously answered at a job interview, you should be able to relate.

Would you prefer to hear polished lies and scripted answers, or be able to see right through him?

You realise Trump talks like that all the time though, right?

Continuing because rage.

See this is the sort of shit that nutty antivaxx cunts post because they're stupid, and it's dangerous because if you don't know anything about vaccinations or immune systems or the world it sounds kinda sensible. And that's dangerous because thinking "sounds kinda sensible" about something a nutty antivaxx cunt said can trick your brain into thinking "hey that guy isn't nutty all the time".

Do you know how many fucking pathogens a toddler comes into contact with for the very first time EVERY DAY? Do you realise how fucking toxic the world is? That "massive one time vaccination" is a fucking ROUNDING ERROR on the balance sheet of how many new germs your average toddler absorbs daily.

The "massive one time vaccination" is done in that way because getting that fucking commit done to your germ database in one doctor visit at the price of one shot is THE CHEAPEST FASTEST LEAST-UPSET-BABYEST way of doing it.

All that happens when fucking retards decide "oooh, I read on the internet that it's better to spread them out over time" is that the baby cries on visit number one and OH MY MUMMYFEELS, I'M NOT PUTTING PRECIOUS SNOWFLAKE THROUGH THIS EVER AGAIN and the subsequent visits never happen. Or tinfoil hat daddy goes THIS IS BULLSHIT BIG PHARMA IS JUST MAKING US MAKE MULTIPLE VISITS FOR MULTIPLE SHOTS SO IT CAN MAXIMISE PROFITS ("hold on, wasn't that your idea?" "IMPOSSIBRU, BIG PHARMA, HERPA DERP") and the subsequent visits never happen.

That's the whole point right? It's all still genuinely alarming that politics is questioning and determining scientific outcomes. The "actual headline" is just as scary as the alarmist one.

Why is there even a schedule? Either a newborn baby can handle every virus under the sun all in one go, or it can't and age/maturity of the immune system has something to do with what a child can take. That is why some vaccines are only given at 12 months, isn't it? 15 months in NZ for MMR, maybe 12 was a bit... risky? I MEAN THERES NO RISK, VACCINES ARE SAFE, HERE I'LL EAT A BOX OF THEM MYSELF.

The fact that some vaccines require repeated/follow up shots as standard practice means that your mummyfeels argument does not hold because children probably cry every time anyway, and the current vaccine schedule still takes place.

Assuming you can't be enrolled in a public school/child care unless you're fully vaccinated, does it matter if you get your shots separately or together, or at 2, 12, 18, 24 months or just before you start school? Some parents could choose all in one, some might choose to spread them out. I believe the operative word is FREEDOM. Minimising costs (your justification) is also a way to maximise profits, so daddy tin foil can fuck off. More shots = more GDP - it's the economy, stupid.

No-one is proposing to discontinue vaccinations.

Look the dossier didn't say that Trump wanted Russian hookers to piss on him, it said that he wanted to watch Russian hookers piss on EACH OTHER, which seems perfectly reasonable, I don't see what the big deal is.

Pissing and hotels and hookers, what of it? This guy felt compelled to desecrate a bed Obama and Michelle slept in.

Probably gonna be a parade of hookers running through the White House in Trump's first week.

I had an "oh no/well of course" moment the other day when Trump responded to a journalist by calling it fake news.

I just read this salient post about modern propaganda.

If only we could use it to fight climate change, because it's chilling.

Unfortunately "they" are a Republican-dominated House, and the Democrats so far are acting like battered spouses.

Not all the Republicans are behind him, though. I can imagine a few would have no problem watching him get impeached over something.

Is it really how their country voted when Clinton got 2,864,974 more popular votes?

So tone deaf. Those celebrity videos leading up to and post election are next level cringe. How about focus on cleaning out the dnc first and ideas on how to win back those middle american areas rather than harp on about popular vote on the coasts and rubbing one out to anything patton oswalt and the like says.
Very reminiscent of KDS back here.
