Get a Freaking Clue

In this day and age, finding information is so quick and easy. You can access alot or a little depending on what you are searching for. You can also get fact or fiction, and the people who believe the fiction and do not do enough research are the reason for this blog. 

You all need to get a freaking clue. It's that fucking simple. Don't hop online type a question into google and believe the first thing you read. Read more! Do actual research on the topic. If it's something written by some random stranger who has never been recognised as a scientist, doctor or an expert in their field, then guess what, they aren't. They are John or Jane Citizen. They are voicing their own ill conceived views that have been collected from other people who also don't have a clue. I admit to being someone without any higher schooling or someone who has worked in a specialised field, I'm Jane Citizen, nobody. But I can get online and write my opinion on something and someone could believe it. 

Of course it would have to be something so out there it's freaking crazy but someone, somewhere would believe it. One day, a person, much like you or I decided to get online and start promoting against vaccinations. A few people read it, and believed it because hey why would they lie. They say that they have experienced it themselves, and oh look at the picture of their cute little healthy family, living the good life and they haven't been vaccinated, oh and look they shared a picture of a friends family, and they have 2 autistic kids and they have been vaccinated. The brains churn with this info and instantly, the reader has a cause. They think to themselves, well it must be true, look at all these facts, there's a quote from a doctor here. Seriously people get a freaking clue. I could build an online profile saying that I'm a doctor and who would step up (apart from my family and friends who all hate me LOL) and say I was lying? Instead of reading this misinformation from John or Jane Citizen, do your fucking research. Speak to doctors yourself, your own doctor, a real fucking doctor. Look up facts online, from reputable scientists, and they will tell you, getting your child vaccinated does not cause autism. Your child is born autistic, and that's a damn fact. It's not a disease, it's not something you can catch at school, you are born autistic. 

Sure there are some children who have severe reactions. And there are others who cannot for medical reasons get vaccinated. But, that does not give you the right to expose your unvaccinated germ of a child to a newborn who hasn't had the chance to get vaccinations to chicken pox or measles etc. Get this into your head. It's a proven fact that these mild childhood diseases can and have killed. Don't get on your high horse and say it's your right to choose to not vaccinate, without having the common sense to realise that you do not have the right to expose other children or adults to the diseases your children may have. A simple way to help with the reactions, is to ask your doctor to give the shots separately. Don't go and get all of them at once. Space it out, but wait that makes sense, well at least it does to me, so it must be bullshit. I was asked if I wanted to do that with my son, I chose not to and apart from a temp he was fine. Same with my girls, although I wasn't asked for them. And not one of my kids is autistic. I was vaccinated, and I'm reasonably fine (apart from the mental issues my family keeps alluding too LOL). 

The next point I want to make is about the proven hoax regarding abortion clinics selling body parts of babies. Ummm, okay. Some idiots filmed a fake expose, got caught, and admitted it was all a lie, and got charged and sued. But if you actually researched you would find that info easy enough. Instead John or Jane Citizen get online and decry the right of women to choose because we all know they sell the baby body parts, it was on the net right, must be true. And my taxes are paying for it. Despite the fact it's proven that this is not the case, and even the government admits the funding does not cover abortions, it must be true cause I read it online. 

And then there's Sharia Law. Seriously this one gets me every single time. There is no Sharia Law in any western country, and you know why? We are democracies, the government cannot suddenly decide that it's okay without listening to the people. And unless your government is suddenly taken over by extreme Muslims, it's not going to fucking happen. Okay now you might be thinking, if we let Muslims in they will demand it as a right and it will be enforced, we can't let that happen. What the hell makes you think normal Muslims want it? Have you sat down and chatted to them? Have they passed out flyers saying vote for Sharia Law? Yeh, didn't think so. I don't want it, no one I know does, and that includes the Muslims I know. Just because someone posts a meme saying that it's about to become law, does not make it so. I make memes alot, I enjoy it, doesn't make what I say on them true, in fact they are all made as jokes. They aren't based on facts or figures, they are fun. 

Now, I'm not saying that we should just go ahead and let anyone into our country without vetting. I have no problem at all with taking immigrants off the streets and deporting them if they attack anyone in my country. And I don't have a problem with deporting them even if they say they will be killed if they go back to their homeland, I would not lose any sleep over them at all. 

Another method of research, is the library, remember the library? Big place with lots of books and dust. Usually watched over by a stern spinster who constantly shushed you LOL.
