  • Stop misinformation about vaccination #stopAVN
    Tim commented on the petition | 20 days ago

    Anti-Vaccination groups accross the world started with the idea that vacination caused autism - an idea put forward by just one study. Since then the author of the study has been banned from practicing medicine, the paper has been retracted and the author charged with fraud. Not only that but since then hundreds of studies have shown that there is no link what-so-ever! Even in countries where vaccination rates are very low autism rates are exactly the same - proof positive of the lie right there. Since then however vaccination has been linked to just about everything in a shameless attempt to stir up fear. We know vaccination works - our world is not ravaged by polio or small pox beacuse of it. Not vaccinating because of fear mongering is a terrible thing - playing with someones life and happiness just beacuse someone has an axe to grind! It must be stopped!!

  • "Ben X" and Bullying
    Tim commented on the article | almost 3 years ago

    Sad, yet frightening common. When I was in school, I was bullied mercilessly. Although luckly for me I am physically strong and tall and always have been, so I was only very rarely physically assulted, I was often so tired that I would not wish to participate in sports and phisical activities. This lead to a kind of social isolation a I would sit on the side lines and not join in on the games that friends and family played, not to mention the fact I was always on guard and so would always be looking for the next bard. This meant that I would often push people away who were just trying to be my friends out of fear of them turning.

    In my humble opinion Bullying is one of the greatest threats to those on the spectrum that there has ever been. "Regardless of whether the movie "Ben X" is worth viewing, the issue of school bullying is definitely worth examining." I would say exterminating not examining.
