There are plenty of upsetting things on this planet lately, but gosh that antivax movement has gotta be one of the top irritants for me. 😡 It's so hard for me to patient with that kind of shit.

It's so weird how this has become a big thing. I liken it to our own privilege. We've become so sheltered about the realities of viruses/disease that we don't know what it's like to live with them.
Absolutely. I've noticed a lot of people in Aotearoa in particular have been super sheltered from the horrors in the world and don't respect some of the threats that exist out there. Like covid, because we had such an awesome response many people don't really realise how horrible it was elsewhere.
Perhaps because so many people I know have fallen victim to it. My sister's kid hasn't had any vaccines, my FREAKING SCIENTIST dad isn't into them now, so many friends.... I'm just so distraught about it. The people out there peddling dangerous lies about wellness are rotten.
It upsets me greatly especially when autism gets involved. Like... I'm autistic. You'd rather have a dead kid than autistic one? That's what it sounds like every time they say it.
I'm on the part of the spectrum that NTs like to call "You don't look autistic", too.
I WANT to work, I WANT to be part of the society people say I contribute nothing to. But I'm not choosing to sit it out, I'm told "No" a lot, and I can only take it so much at a time...
