Is this for real, Thanos?

Is what for real? Maher does deny germ theory in his anti vaxxer fervor, HIV denialists, and pure foodists do the same. I don’t understand the question, can you be specific as to which part you think might not be real?

It is entirely real Mandy.
Secure in their little yuppie bubbles, these kooks have never gained a clue how that bubble was created in the first place. Given the incidence of historical illiteracy even among the otherwise well-educated, it is no surprise that the pestilence-ridden reality of the past could be denied like this. It is a logical outcome of the neo-romantic obsession with nature as they and Madison Avenue imagine it to be, rather than as it really is.

Many of these people have no idea what they are doing. A friend only lets her family drink raw milk (illegal in our state to buy or sell) I was appalled, and asked if she knew why they started pasteurizing milk and of course no one remembers the TB deaths of the last 1800’s.

The ones most likely to be hurt are those allergic to egg proteins who can not take many common vaccines and are dependent on herd immunity to keep from getting many illnesses.

Excellent post.

Cause and effect are real. We live in an age where science and scientific knowledge has given us so much. How quickly we forget. To turn our backs on it is insane.
