It’s the passion behind the misinformation that throws me.

Yes! I used to want to meet people where they are and help them. Now I’m just tired and don’t have any empathy left. They’re intentionally being misled and proud of it.

Sigh. It’s why I’ve tapped the sign now. Is it in the book? Then stop talking until you read the book.

Yup! I had an avid anti-vaxxer in class. She was a major. I finally told her she needed to find a new major if she didn’t understand the science and advances of the field.

You hate to be that blunt but you have to be willing to learn things. 😂

Correct! She wanted to do work in hospitals and was refusing to get vaccinated. wtf

What?!

Exactly! Thats why I had to keep it real and tell her to find another major. Intentionally harmful.

I would halfway be interested on what exactly she planned to do in the field. An RFK Jr. path? He doesn’t have any credentials. He’s just rich and white.

She was one of those wellness people for sure. Individual/physical fitness approach to health. Teach people how to be healthy via her narrow & ill-informed lens of health. She was an undergrad in ~2014.

When everything is controlled by corporations which are demonstrably unworthy of trust the rightly earned distrust gets transferred to the underpinjings of the systems those corporations control. If Evilcorp controls your water supply the correct response is not to stop drinking water.
