And when you have a billion people doing this, that’s a lot of insanity. Like, world-spanning plague-level insanity.

    Your explanation is wrong, though. People might have experience, but you don’t know who, because they can lie. And if you think about it, a lot of what we learn is stuff we haven’t experienced directly, for a variety of practical reasons.

      Doesn’t matter . I had an anti vaxx lady wave a meme in my face and tell me doctors can’t be trusted.

      They not only have experience they have proof. Confirmation bias is a bitch I guess.

        Antivaxxers tend to be uneducated people with agendas. They are actually wanting to see more people get sick and die, because they think it “eliminates” undesirable (ie, educated liberal good people) from the world. When it fact, it only eliminates their own ignorant breed. That’s why I don’t argue with them, I let them go ahead and exhaust themselves on their cross of ignorance.
