You’re so right. My wife cried for a week when she found out our child was autistic. It’s a desperate situation. You want to blame anything in order to find a reason other than “sometimes this happens.” Vaccines are the scapegoat.

At a job in Silicon Valley I had a boss who had an autistic child and my boss told me directly that when they vaccinated their child, the child’s behavior changed, and caused autism.

I have other friends in SV who are huge vaccine skeptics.

So, yes, even in deep blue areas there are anti-vax people. There are also Trump flag flying people in SV too.

Are you suggesting that people who are intermittently connected to the internet instead of tethered to it by a pocket device are somehow more ignorant?
