RE: How Steemit can save millions of lives?

in #steemit7 years ago

Critical thinking is necessary for us to lead free and prosperous lives, and most people seem unwilling to develop it in themselves. And that's okay, but it comes with a cost. I am against laws that "protect from misinformation", but I am for fraud legislation, which is a more libertarian concept.

However, your statements are just the flip side. I could write a post asking how many lives were destroyed and terminated by people's belief in chemo and vaccines and anti-depressants and anti-psychotics...I could go on.

There are people (I've met two personally) who's children's lives were changed dramatically by detrimental treatment accepted as standard medicine. And on chemo, I have a few success stories in my vicinity and a few obituaries as well.

Instead of railing against this treatment or that, we should focus on people's happiness, and helping guide people to actions that feel best. Some people avoid vaccines out of fear, and shouldn't, while others use them out of fear, and should't.

Sort:  

If you could go on, please do. I'd need evidence that removing vaccines from the world somehow would be better for us than keeping them.

I honestly want you to try. good luck

It's not about removing vaccines from the world, it's about you staying away from my right not to use them.

I would love evidence too...maybe we could ask the government to investigate...oh, wait, they'd never actually do that and settle this once and for all.

What are you on about?

Is it my right to not stop that crazy gunman from shooting his gun in the street whenever he feels like it? Think about it.

Look, the idea of vaccines sounds great but the implementation is like gross negligence. You just have to dig in order to find the truth. I have found that wherever there is so much controversy surrounding something, something stinks. It's rotten. That's your first clue.

It might be a lot of work but when you start to know the truth it is so worth it. From the bottom of my heart. Good luck.

And to that end, it's mostly about the idea that all bodies, brains and systems work and respond differently to different things. " Nothing is good or bad; only thinking makes it so." - Shakespeare. The strength of belief itself may be behind efficacy across the board with respect to healing.

I find that to be a convient generalization which isn't necessarily true at all. You can easily see that things are going in the wrong direction for society as a whole so there must be systemic problems which we all have in common.

I don't believe in generalizations other than to be convenient, untruths. Indeed systemic problems persist throughout humanity, but the source of many still lies within the individual. Our thoughts are what kill us. It is not the technology, the guns or the vaccines. Fighting is a low vibration. To "fight" anything, without first identifying its cause, its a solution looking for a problem. Self mastery is a lonely path and I can't teach anyone anything.

Please provide the evidence, the burden of proof is not on me

Read @ura-soul or @canadian-coconut, not going to repeat what they have already clearly demonstrated. You can also watch any of Truth about Vaccines documentary series.

I feel like all these anti-vaxx replies are completely missing the point...

Whatever, take your next flu shot please.

Good job. Enjoy indirectly killing people!

Do you have any idea about the numbers of death due to pharmaceuticals? The skyrocketing autism rates? You wouldn't think there is a correlation with the number of vaccines would you?
Why are there so many documentaries about vaccines the last decade? Vaxxed, Undoctered, the Truth about Vaccines (as there have been the truth about cancer). Vaccine Nation, Bought, The Greater Good. That's all coincidence right?

Appeal to fear.

Shifting the burden of proof will not make your beliefs true.
