WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Well again, we'll go back to non profits.

2
00:00:01.600 --> 00:00:03.799
<v Speaker 2>You know, the old adage God will help those that

3
00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:06.440
<v Speaker 2>help themselves. I think the men and I community and

4
00:00:06.719 --> 00:00:09.880
<v Speaker 2>rurald Texas missed that memo. With ourkgior now in charge

5
00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:12.400
<v Speaker 2>of the Department of Health usills on the rising along

6
00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:17.559
<v Speaker 2>with others supposedly eleminated diseases. Here our belief ruling over

7
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:20.839
<v Speaker 2>reason and a lack of trust in established institutions. We

8
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:23.879
<v Speaker 2>are now on the precipice of some serious health crisises

9
00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:28.359
<v Speaker 2>in the United States, especially in isolated communities where there

10
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:31.399
<v Speaker 2>is a serious lack of education and outreach to the

11
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:33.880
<v Speaker 2>wider impact of health access.

12
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:35.880
<v Speaker 1>We see how faith.

13
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Alone can lead to deaths that can be avoided with

14
00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.119
<v Speaker 2>one simple shot. The story is from AP News by

15
00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:47.359
<v Speaker 2>Devi Shastri on March fourth, twenty twenty five. Okay, my

16
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:52.320
<v Speaker 2>friend Eva, I got questions for you. So for my

17
00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:56.840
<v Speaker 2>first question, you mentioned family decision making over well being.

18
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:01.679
<v Speaker 2>So I wanted to know your thoughts on families making

19
00:01:01.719 --> 00:01:06.280
<v Speaker 2>decisions for their children for example that is going to

20
00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:12.159
<v Speaker 2>cause harm and where is that line between parental right

21
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:16.280
<v Speaker 2>versus you know, because based like on our previous story.

22
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 1>For Monday, how do we decide. You know where that line.

23
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:23.280
<v Speaker 2>Is when we're talking especially about parents being able to

24
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>give like vaccines, are not choosing not to give vaccines

25
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:27.799
<v Speaker 2>to their kids.

26
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:33.079
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think that we have this idea. We insist

27
00:01:33.159 --> 00:01:35.599
<v Speaker 3>that no one has the right to tell my family

28
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:37.040
<v Speaker 3>how to live, tell me and my family how to live,

29
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:40.519
<v Speaker 3>which I generally agree with. But I think what happens

30
00:01:40.680 --> 00:01:45.200
<v Speaker 3>is you have decision makers in these families that believe

31
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.280
<v Speaker 3>they are making decisions in the best interest of their family,

32
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.079
<v Speaker 3>and that belief that they are matters a little bit.

33
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.599
<v Speaker 3>But what's happening in reality is like they most people

34
00:01:56.040 --> 00:01:59.200
<v Speaker 3>just kind of like once they stop being required to learn,

35
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:03.159
<v Speaker 3>they don't anymore. So you're not like taking in new

36
00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:06.280
<v Speaker 3>information and learning about like, hey, this is how vaccines

37
00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:09.560
<v Speaker 3>really help, or you know, this is what medical research

38
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:12.680
<v Speaker 3>says about this particular thing, or this is why measles

39
00:02:12.759 --> 00:02:16.039
<v Speaker 3>is worse? Then what will happen if you know what

40
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:18.520
<v Speaker 3>might happen if I do vaccinate? Right? So, and I

41
00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:21.199
<v Speaker 3>think that's the problem too, that people tend to look

42
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.280
<v Speaker 3>at information in a vacuum. And so if you see that,

43
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:28.400
<v Speaker 3>you know there have been this many injuries from vaccines

44
00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.800
<v Speaker 3>as a result of this or that vaccine, and you

45
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.719
<v Speaker 3>don't compare that to what's going to happen if you

46
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:37.879
<v Speaker 3>don't vaccinate. That's like me saying, you know, every if

47
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:41.039
<v Speaker 3>I say, every autopsy we've ever done in history has

48
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:44.840
<v Speaker 3>revealed some amount of dihydrogen monoxide in the cadaver at

49
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 3>the time of death. If you don't already have the

50
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:51.000
<v Speaker 3>context that dihydrogen monoxide is just water and it's vital

51
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.800
<v Speaker 3>for life as we know it, then that makes it

52
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:57.639
<v Speaker 3>sound like that's somehow related to this high rate of mortality.

53
00:02:58.039 --> 00:03:01.800
<v Speaker 3>But it's just a thing that happens to coexist and

54
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:05.719
<v Speaker 3>I happened to be there and not having it is

55
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:07.840
<v Speaker 3>much much worse than having it. But when you just

56
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:10.599
<v Speaker 3>look at that information without its context, you're going to

57
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:12.680
<v Speaker 3>scare yourself away from things that are more likely to

58
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:13.759
<v Speaker 3>help you than hurt you.

59
00:03:13.800 --> 00:03:15.360
<v Speaker 1>No, that's a really good point.

60
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.000
<v Speaker 2>And Kelly, you mentioned like, you know RK Gear's you know,

61
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:23.000
<v Speaker 2>lack of vaccine education and class, and you know, it

62
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.439
<v Speaker 2>was like, oh, well, he knows what he's talking about.

63
00:03:26.960 --> 00:03:29.159
<v Speaker 1>So I obviously.

64
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 4>That I saw a quote in the article from Senior

65
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:38.159
<v Speaker 4>Senior Pastor class and do I trust all vaccines. No,

66
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:40.960
<v Speaker 4>And I give from Kennedy that he doesn't trust all

67
00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:44.960
<v Speaker 4>the vaccines either, and he is very well educated in that.

68
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:49.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm not so. I mean, he's trusting Kennedy's education in vaccines.

69
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:53.159
<v Speaker 4>So I started thinking, I don't think Kennedy ever had

70
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:56.120
<v Speaker 4>any education in that. And I actually did a little

71
00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:59.840
<v Speaker 4>bit of research around just doalve down the RFK rabbit hole,

72
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 4>and it turns out well. First off, he was quite

73
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 4>the little juvenile delinquent. He was even in a gang

74
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:10.639
<v Speaker 4>called the hyannasport Terrors, which to me is fucking hysterical.

75
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.439
<v Speaker 4>I'm not making this up either. Like he a lot

76
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:16.800
<v Speaker 4>of his family members said that he was addicted to

77
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:20.040
<v Speaker 4>drugs and he led other family members down the path

78
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:24.759
<v Speaker 4>of drug addiction. And honestly, besides the comical gang thing,

79
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 4>he sounds like the people I was hanging on with

80
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:30.480
<v Speaker 4>the Dan Angel and the truth. He did a tuck

81
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:35.519
<v Speaker 4>funnel work on for environmentalism, legal work, but no vaccine

82
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:38.639
<v Speaker 4>background in any of that. He took a lot of

83
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 4>corporations to court for pollution, which again good for him. Seriously,

84
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:47.240
<v Speaker 4>no vaccine education and any of that. The first, the

85
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:50.519
<v Speaker 4>first environment the first activism I ever did when I

86
00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:54.399
<v Speaker 4>was a kid was for environmentalism, So I'm behind all

87
00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:57.360
<v Speaker 4>the stuff he did when he was younger totally. But again,

88
00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:02.639
<v Speaker 4>no vaccine education. He's an outstanding resume, but nowhere is

89
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:07.160
<v Speaker 4>there any training on vaccine, on healthcare, nothing. So this

90
00:05:07.319 --> 00:05:12.199
<v Speaker 4>senior pastor is not trusting vaccines that have been tested

91
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:15.720
<v Speaker 4>and trusting a man who has not been tested.

92
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:18.600
<v Speaker 1>No, I agree with you, So, Tracy, I have a

93
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:19.240
<v Speaker 1>question for you.

94
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.639
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So, like and for example, and like Mennonite Amish communities,

95
00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:27.800
<v Speaker 2>these isolated communities, they might not have the same access

96
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:33.199
<v Speaker 2>to education health education as like the general public. So

97
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:37.759
<v Speaker 2>we understand that there is a lot of religious privilege

98
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:42.439
<v Speaker 2>going on right now. Where do you think you mentioned

99
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.439
<v Speaker 2>like demonstrable harm in your notes and you know, where

100
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:49.160
<v Speaker 2>is that line, like, where is your kind of feeling

101
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:54.120
<v Speaker 2>about like lack of education versus you know, the health

102
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:57.199
<v Speaker 2>of our role of public populations like children.

103
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:03.079
<v Speaker 5>Well, Hannah, well I called you hand Helen. I'm just

104
00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.519
<v Speaker 5>not gonna accept the lack of education as an excuse.

105
00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:12.439
<v Speaker 5>Even the most poorly educated person can understand that when

106
00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:16.839
<v Speaker 5>your child stops moving and responding to you and starts

107
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.120
<v Speaker 5>to smell a little funny that that means that they died.

108
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:22.800
<v Speaker 5>And when you look at all the kids in your

109
00:06:22.839 --> 00:06:27.000
<v Speaker 5>community and you say, huh, well, they're dying a lot.

110
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.120
<v Speaker 5>And then you look at another community and you say, oh,

111
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:33.920
<v Speaker 5>my goodness, the children aren't dying as much. I wonder

112
00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:41.120
<v Speaker 5>why there's no amount of removal from education, from our

113
00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:46.600
<v Speaker 5>technology that is going to excuse this negligent behavior. There's

114
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.480
<v Speaker 5>no amount whatsoever. If your child is dying, unless you

115
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:53.959
<v Speaker 5>want back to keep happening, you take steps to fix that.

116
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:58.959
<v Speaker 5>I don't really understand. I can't understand not wanting to

117
00:06:59.040 --> 00:06:59.920
<v Speaker 5>keep your child.

118
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:04.120
<v Speaker 4>From That's not what it is. It's it's it's I

119
00:07:04.160 --> 00:07:08.279
<v Speaker 4>don't want my child. The problem is misinformation, not being

120
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:12.279
<v Speaker 4>well informed, but being well misinformed. So you have all

121
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.439
<v Speaker 4>these parents who are saying, oh, I had the measles

122
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:17.680
<v Speaker 4>when I was a kid and I lived, But if

123
00:07:17.720 --> 00:07:20.360
<v Speaker 4>I give my kid a measle shot, they're going to

124
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.839
<v Speaker 4>be autistic. And I don't want my child to be autistic.

125
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:26.839
<v Speaker 4>And that's where that's where this fear comes out of. Now,

126
00:07:26.920 --> 00:07:30.560
<v Speaker 4>of course, nobody's going to get become on the spectrum

127
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 4>just because they got a measles vaccination. It's just not

128
00:07:33.240 --> 00:07:37.240
<v Speaker 4>fucking happening. But there's so much misinformation out there teaching

129
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.600
<v Speaker 4>people this. I went through it with my kids. My

130
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.920
<v Speaker 4>ex wife brought it up, and we actually did some research,

131
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:45.519
<v Speaker 4>thank goodness, I you know, know how to research stuff,

132
00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.480
<v Speaker 4>and we found out all this bullshit wasn't true, and

133
00:07:48.639 --> 00:07:52.319
<v Speaker 4>my kids are both fact fully vaccinated. But but there

134
00:07:52.399 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 4>is so much misinformation out there that it's easy to

135
00:07:55.680 --> 00:07:58.959
<v Speaker 4>be led down the wrong path with it. So I'm sorry,

136
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:00.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm off my soapbox.

137
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Now there you go, so so HELI like your your

138
00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:06.920
<v Speaker 2>kids on the younger end, like when my kids, like

139
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:10.199
<v Speaker 2>back in the early two thousands, when like the chicken

140
00:08:10.240 --> 00:08:13.120
<v Speaker 2>pox vaccine came out, my daughter was like, Hey, we

141
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.079
<v Speaker 2>have the chicken pox vacne.

142
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Do you wearing kids to have it?

143
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:17.160
<v Speaker 2>I was like, yes, I didn't even question it because

144
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I had trusted in vaccines. With your you know, fully

145
00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:24.839
<v Speaker 2>engrossed in the Internet age where misinformation happens all the time,

146
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:27.800
<v Speaker 2>did you struggle with those certain decisions when it came

147
00:08:27.959 --> 00:08:31.920
<v Speaker 2>to vaccination or we're just like, I'm like, or did

148
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:35.080
<v Speaker 2>you have what sort of education did you have that

149
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:37.840
<v Speaker 2>you could sort through the bullshit? To really understand, like,

150
00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:40.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, what's going to impact your child.

151
00:08:40.639 --> 00:08:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well I was fortunate enough to already be somewhat

152
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:46.559
<v Speaker 3>reasonable by the time my son was born. Uh So

153
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:51.080
<v Speaker 3>I asked, I was already on the side of like, okay,

154
00:08:51.080 --> 00:08:56.039
<v Speaker 3>like vaccines are not a bad thing. And I was.

155
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 3>Actually I was in EMT school when we found out

156
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.000
<v Speaker 3>we were expect so I was learning medicine. I was

157
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:04.360
<v Speaker 3>kind of like learning how to like think critically and

158
00:09:04.480 --> 00:09:06.639
<v Speaker 3>how like evidence is gathered. And that was really sort

159
00:09:06.679 --> 00:09:10.120
<v Speaker 3>of my first introduction into like like data gathering type process.

160
00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:14.639
<v Speaker 3>The teacher I had was fantastic. But so when it

161
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:16.799
<v Speaker 3>came to like me, when it comes to like, you know,

162
00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:19.759
<v Speaker 3>medical decisions for my son, I talked to his pediatrician,

163
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:22.279
<v Speaker 3>who has all of his medical history, who has all

164
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:26.200
<v Speaker 3>of the knowledge and the education and the experience to

165
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:29.840
<v Speaker 3>look at the situation and evaluate him. And I can say,

166
00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:32.759
<v Speaker 3>what do you recommend, and that pediatrician can say I

167
00:09:32.799 --> 00:09:35.399
<v Speaker 3>recommend this, and I'll say, okay, And as long as

168
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.840
<v Speaker 3>like it's not obviously the wrong thing, Like who am

169
00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:41.440
<v Speaker 3>I to suggest that I know better than a pediatrician

170
00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:44.440
<v Speaker 3>that's twice my age. Probably I don't think I don't

171
00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:53.519
<v Speaker 3>think they're that old, but uh yeah, and and and

172
00:09:53.519 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 3>there's nothing wrong with being twice ways, but the fact

173
00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.200
<v Speaker 3>that they they have the experience in their field to

174
00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:02.919
<v Speaker 3>understand like, did I learn a little bit at one point?

175
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:03.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

176
00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:07.480
<v Speaker 3>Could I have had a conversation about like pediatric emergency

177
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:09.080
<v Speaker 3>medicine with that doctor at some point?

178
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

179
00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:13.480
<v Speaker 3>Maybe? Did I ever know more about them than pediatric medicine?

180
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Zero percent? Is that likely? I think that zero percent

181
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.600
<v Speaker 3>likely that that ever was the case. So yeah, I

182
00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:22.559
<v Speaker 3>just trust what the profession, the professional, the experts say,

183
00:10:22.639 --> 00:10:23.759
<v Speaker 3>unless it's clearing me wrong.

184
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:25.879
<v Speaker 1>So do I weird?

185
00:10:27.159 --> 00:10:29.279
<v Speaker 3>That's not to say I'm sorry, sorry, I don't mean

186
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:30.759
<v Speaker 3>to keep going.

187
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Well, that's not to say that's.

188
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.679
<v Speaker 3>Not to say experts can't be wrong, Like it's not

189
00:10:34.720 --> 00:10:37.320
<v Speaker 3>intended to be an argument from authority, like they can't

190
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:40.080
<v Speaker 3>be wrong. And if you feel like something's not right, yeah,

191
00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:43.200
<v Speaker 3>of course check it. But like when the expert is

192
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:47.159
<v Speaker 3>saying like, hey, like the chance of injury is relatively low,

193
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:50.360
<v Speaker 3>and then like Kevin on YouTube is like, no, this

194
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:52.480
<v Speaker 3>is exactly what's going to happen. And I know it

195
00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:57.240
<v Speaker 3>because I read about it on Facebook, Like I'm the doctor,

196
00:10:57.320 --> 00:10:58.360
<v Speaker 3>is a better source than Kevin.

197
00:10:58.480 --> 00:11:01.200
<v Speaker 4>Wait wait, wait what did Kevin? Wait? No, wait Kevin?

198
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:02.080
<v Speaker 3>It was Kevin.

199
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:03.919
<v Speaker 4>Kevin?

200
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>So Kelly as the elder here.

201
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:17.320
<v Speaker 2>So do you think that, like, you know, because people

202
00:11:17.720 --> 00:11:20.879
<v Speaker 2>haven't lived through you know, children die of measles or

203
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:26.039
<v Speaker 2>being affected by polio, for example, because those diseases have

204
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:30.799
<v Speaker 2>been eradicated for you know, especially like through when you

205
00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.840
<v Speaker 2>were growing up and when I grew up, you know,

206
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:35.480
<v Speaker 2>with those diseases.

207
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.519
<v Speaker 1>Haven't been a thing like do they.

208
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Do you think that it is because like people aren't

209
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:46.279
<v Speaker 2>actually seeing these really extreme deficits of health to their

210
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:49.480
<v Speaker 2>children that is keeping them from understanding what it is,

211
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:51.159
<v Speaker 2>or do you think it's like something else.

212
00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:53.919
<v Speaker 4>I think that's part of it. Sure, I mean that's

213
00:11:53.960 --> 00:11:57.200
<v Speaker 4>that's definitely part of it. I had measles when I

214
00:11:57.240 --> 00:11:59.159
<v Speaker 4>was a kid, I had chicken pox. I lived through

215
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:02.440
<v Speaker 4>all that stuff, and none of my kids did, None

216
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:05.799
<v Speaker 4>of my nieces or nephews did. So I see that

217
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:09.679
<v Speaker 4>as a reasonable of excuse for why some parents don't

218
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.120
<v Speaker 4>do it. And and a lot of now I'm older,

219
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:14.720
<v Speaker 4>but a lot of parents today they didn't see any

220
00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:16.960
<v Speaker 4>of that when they were kids either. So they don't

221
00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.840
<v Speaker 4>really understand that. You know, when the whole when the

222
00:12:19.879 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 4>whole school got measles, one or two of the kids

223
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:26.519
<v Speaker 4>died from it. You know that they just don't get it.

224
00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:30.080
<v Speaker 4>So I think that is definitely definitely a part of it.

225
00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:32.159
<v Speaker 4>I think what I was saying before was a part

226
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:33.960
<v Speaker 4>of it too. I don't care about the whole thing.

227
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.399
<v Speaker 4>I just care about my child and what could happen

228
00:12:36.440 --> 00:12:38.799
<v Speaker 4>to them. So there's kind of a bit of selfishness

229
00:12:38.799 --> 00:12:42.000
<v Speaker 4>put involved in it too. And then we get also

230
00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.480
<v Speaker 4>a lot of misinformation being put out there about how

231
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:48.720
<v Speaker 4>it's against your you know, a good a good follower

232
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:51.279
<v Speaker 4>of Jesus would never have something like this stuck into

233
00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:53.879
<v Speaker 4>their body, you know, So that that's not helping either.

234
00:12:53.960 --> 00:12:56.200
<v Speaker 4>There's a there's a whole bunch of different factors, but

235
00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:59.799
<v Speaker 4>that's definitely one of them. It's definitely one of them.

236
00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:03.440
<v Speaker 2>And I I think that feeds into the ignorance a lot.

237
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Speaker 2>But but like you know, this particular article mentioned like

238
00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:09.759
<v Speaker 2>the Mennonite community, which.

239
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Is you know that, and they are kind of a.

240
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:15.320
<v Speaker 2>Weird community because they're they're in between, they're not quite

241
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:20.480
<v Speaker 2>a must where they're completely isolated from you know a

242
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:23.919
<v Speaker 2>lot of society, even though they're constantly being influenced by it,

243
00:13:23.960 --> 00:13:25.720
<v Speaker 2>like the Menonites kind of like you.

244
00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 1>Know, to the line between the two, you know.

245
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:33.320
<v Speaker 2>So they're exposed to certain levels of you know, secular life,

246
00:13:33.720 --> 00:13:39.279
<v Speaker 2>they're exposed to certain levels of education. So I have

247
00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:42.159
<v Speaker 2>to wonder again also too, because they are part of

248
00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:45.919
<v Speaker 2>these religious sects, how much information are they getting and

249
00:13:46.039 --> 00:13:48.000
<v Speaker 2>is the and do they know how to vet?

250
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:51.799
<v Speaker 1>And I guess that they don't, so, Tracy, Hi, and

251
00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 1>what what is your kind of feeling.

252
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.919
<v Speaker 2>With when it comes to medical expertise and where they're

253
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:04.360
<v Speaker 2>getting their information from? And should seculars a society be

254
00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:07.960
<v Speaker 2>moving into these isolated communities to help educate them better

255
00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:11.480
<v Speaker 2>even though their religious beliefs don't really.

256
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:11.759
<v Speaker 1>Want them to.

257
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:19.360
<v Speaker 5>So an important thing to understand about these religious sects.

258
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:23.519
<v Speaker 5>I know quite a few Amish families, and I've I've

259
00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:25.759
<v Speaker 5>looked into the Amish quite a bit. I haven't really

260
00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:30.840
<v Speaker 5>looked into the Mennonites. But this is this is my understanding.

261
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:34.879
<v Speaker 5>Whatever medical advice that they're given is then relayed to

262
00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:37.320
<v Speaker 5>their elder, and then the elder tells them what it

263
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:40.840
<v Speaker 5>is that they're going to do that's not a vetting process.

264
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:46.480
<v Speaker 5>That's the elder checking with their tradition and their religious

265
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:49.000
<v Speaker 5>thoughts and interpretation. It's not a vetting process at all.

266
00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:52.120
<v Speaker 5>They don't have one. They don't research these things. They

267
00:14:52.399 --> 00:14:56.200
<v Speaker 5>just sit at at a surface level and whatever. And

268
00:14:56.679 --> 00:14:59.679
<v Speaker 5>Kelly's right, there may be some misinformation that's been spread

269
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:02.360
<v Speaker 5>in there well, and they're not interested in debunking that

270
00:15:02.440 --> 00:15:05.600
<v Speaker 5>information or looking deeper into it. They are only interested

271
00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:09.480
<v Speaker 5>in their tradition. And I do think that we kind

272
00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:12.720
<v Speaker 5>of owe the children. And I'm going to go off

273
00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:16.720
<v Speaker 5>on this later about appealing to children, but I think

274
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:22.039
<v Speaker 5>there's a demonstrable harm here. There's five things that are needs,

275
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:25.519
<v Speaker 5>that are absolute needs that you will die if you

276
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:27.440
<v Speaker 5>do not have one of these things as far as

277
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:31.799
<v Speaker 5>I'm aware, and I could definitely be wrong, but they're food, water, shelter, medicine,

278
00:15:32.120 --> 00:15:34.000
<v Speaker 5>and I had another one and I wrote it down

279
00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:39.559
<v Speaker 5>food water, shelter, medicine, air. And they are depriving the

280
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:43.360
<v Speaker 5>children of one of those five things. This is I

281
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:45.799
<v Speaker 5>don't where's the line at which we're saying it's no

282
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:49.399
<v Speaker 5>longer a personal choice when you're depriving somebody of one

283
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 5>of the things. They absolutely need in order to continue living.

284
00:15:52.519 --> 00:15:54.559
<v Speaker 5>That's I do think we need to do something. I

285
00:15:54.559 --> 00:15:56.799
<v Speaker 5>don't know what it is, but I think something needs

286
00:15:56.799 --> 00:15:57.519
<v Speaker 5>to be done well.

287
00:15:57.600 --> 00:15:59.240
<v Speaker 2>And it kind of ties back to we were talking

288
00:15:59.279 --> 00:16:02.440
<v Speaker 2>to before about like, you know, even when we're talking

289
00:16:02.440 --> 00:16:03.399
<v Speaker 2>about doctors.

290
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:06.039
<v Speaker 1>Being able to like you know, pick and choose you know, who.

291
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.120
<v Speaker 2>They're going to serve, it ties back into this, like

292
00:16:09.240 --> 00:16:14.159
<v Speaker 2>with with parents also being able to choose what kind

293
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:16.440
<v Speaker 2>of medical care their children receive.

294
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.720
<v Speaker 1>We have to be able to find a balance between

295
00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:21.679
<v Speaker 1>the two. Like and I think.

296
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:25.759
<v Speaker 2>That the lack of education, the lack of there's been

297
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:30.519
<v Speaker 2>erosions as Eli mentioned that you know, he's going to

298
00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:35.519
<v Speaker 2>defer to his pediatrician tell the moment that his like

299
00:16:35.600 --> 00:16:38.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, his Spidey sense goes, that doesn't seem right,

300
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.039
<v Speaker 2>let me go to you know, get more information, maybe

301
00:16:42.120 --> 00:16:46.840
<v Speaker 2>get a second opinion, whatever that is. So I'm going

302
00:16:46.879 --> 00:16:50.000
<v Speaker 2>to ask, like, Kelly, do you think it's like that

303
00:16:50.159 --> 00:16:54.840
<v Speaker 2>lack of skepticism or so much skepticism that you you know,

304
00:16:55.159 --> 00:16:57.720
<v Speaker 2>don't trust anyone and stuff for like an alter in

305
00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:02.080
<v Speaker 2>your community, or you have so much skepticism that you

306
00:17:02.159 --> 00:17:04.799
<v Speaker 2>don't trust anyone except for like you know why you

307
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:06.279
<v Speaker 2>listen to Kevin on Facebook?

308
00:17:08.240 --> 00:17:10.920
<v Speaker 4>What's what that Kevin guy, that guy fucking knows everything?

309
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:15.920
<v Speaker 4>Doesn't know shit? Man, Man, I'll tell you a lot

310
00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:19.000
<v Speaker 4>of viewers still a subscribers, like two point three million.

311
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:25.359
<v Speaker 4>It's it's really a tough thing because I don't you

312
00:17:25.359 --> 00:17:27.640
<v Speaker 4>know what, I totally forgot your question again because I

313
00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:30.279
<v Speaker 4>was thinking of something else. And I apologize.

314
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Just go on all you're thinking about it.

315
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:36.559
<v Speaker 4>It's fine, cool about what Tracy was saying earlier about

316
00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:41.599
<v Speaker 4>you know, and I'm totally in agreement with man. I

317
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:44.160
<v Speaker 4>don't think you could. You can probably go on there

318
00:17:44.279 --> 00:17:47.440
<v Speaker 4>in there with a truckload of information and they're not

319
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:50.759
<v Speaker 4>going to believe it because that information doesn't fit what

320
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 4>they want to believe, where the misinformation does. Right, I

321
00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:57.519
<v Speaker 4>want to believe this miss and I don't care if

322
00:17:57.559 --> 00:17:59.519
<v Speaker 4>it's missing. They don't even care if it's missing. They

323
00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:03.440
<v Speaker 4>don't know that it's information misinformation because they don't bother

324
00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:06.319
<v Speaker 4>to check it out, because they lack that skepticism. I

325
00:18:06.359 --> 00:18:15.000
<v Speaker 4>tied it back in your questionnaire, see that because they

326
00:18:14.799 --> 00:18:17.079
<v Speaker 4>so so You're right. I mean, it's just like there

327
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:20.160
<v Speaker 4>is this there is a lack of skepticism on that side,

328
00:18:20.440 --> 00:18:25.559
<v Speaker 4>and there is an overabundance of skepticism against authority figures.

329
00:18:25.799 --> 00:18:28.240
<v Speaker 4>So you know, it's a weird thing, right, You got

330
00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:30.519
<v Speaker 4>too much on one side and not enough on the other,

331
00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:33.519
<v Speaker 4>and we're and you can't draw the line where the

332
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:36.160
<v Speaker 4>right amount of skepticism is, can you. I mean, it's

333
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:39.559
<v Speaker 4>a really weird It's like Loki's wager if you know

334
00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:41.559
<v Speaker 4>what that is. If you don't know what Loki's wager is,

335
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:42.279
<v Speaker 4>go look it up.

336
00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:50.720
<v Speaker 2>So, Eli, you mentioned like the leave it to your

337
00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:52.880
<v Speaker 2>mother's things in your nose.

338
00:18:54.279 --> 00:19:00.359
<v Speaker 1>As a mother, I was Myra went so, but what

339
00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:01.680
<v Speaker 1>was your point with that?

340
00:19:02.319 --> 00:19:05.480
<v Speaker 3>With the Lincoln to I am glad you're asking not

341
00:19:05.519 --> 00:19:08.279
<v Speaker 3>only for the chance to clarify, but because it actually

342
00:19:09.319 --> 00:19:11.400
<v Speaker 3>what has been spoken, Like what has been said is

343
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:14.200
<v Speaker 3>kind of reminded me of this. There seems to be

344
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:17.960
<v Speaker 3>this idea that mother knows best. It used to be

345
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:19.880
<v Speaker 3>father knows best. Now it's mother knows best. There's some

346
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:23.359
<v Speaker 3>combination of like, once you become a parent, you are

347
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:26.640
<v Speaker 3>imbued with the undeniable knowledge of what the absolute best

348
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:31.640
<v Speaker 3>choice is for your child, and that just isn't true, right,

349
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:36.759
<v Speaker 3>And I like this could be like in the wrong context,

350
00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:39.039
<v Speaker 3>construed to be like anti mother, anti woman. I don't

351
00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:40.559
<v Speaker 3>want it to be taken that way at all. I

352
00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:44.200
<v Speaker 3>don't think even myself as a parent, I do not

353
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.640
<v Speaker 3>have infallible knowledge about what the best choice is for

354
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:50.640
<v Speaker 3>my son. And that's why I rely on experts like

355
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:54.839
<v Speaker 3>educators and like psychologists if that were to become necessary,

356
00:19:55.960 --> 00:20:00.640
<v Speaker 3>psychiatrists in under the same context, medical professionals, whatever professionals

357
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:03.319
<v Speaker 3>that are in areas in which I have no knowledge,

358
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:06.960
<v Speaker 3>that's who I defer to when I'm seeking knowledge. And

359
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:11.160
<v Speaker 3>I just don't. And it is that improper application of

360
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:17.039
<v Speaker 3>skepticism because people don't like to have been wrong in

361
00:20:17.119 --> 00:20:21.119
<v Speaker 3>the past, so they don't like to admit that maybe

362
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:23.000
<v Speaker 3>one of the choices I made for my child in

363
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:25.279
<v Speaker 3>the past wasn't the best choice, and now if I

364
00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 3>change my mind, now I have to admit that I

365
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:29.599
<v Speaker 3>didn't make the best choice before, and now I'm a

366
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:33.599
<v Speaker 3>bad parent. No, you're a bad parent if you continue

367
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:36.839
<v Speaker 3>to make the work like the not best choice in

368
00:20:36.960 --> 00:20:40.359
<v Speaker 3>light of overwhelming evidence that the choice you're making is

369
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 3>not the best choice. That's what makes your bad parent.

370
00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:46.599
<v Speaker 3>Learning from your mistakes and teaching your child to learn

371
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:50.000
<v Speaker 3>from their mistakes and to admit when they got something wrong.

372
00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:52.119
<v Speaker 3>That's what's going to make That's what makes you a

373
00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:56.559
<v Speaker 3>good parent, because that makes your child an acceptable, like

374
00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:58.880
<v Speaker 3>tolerable person to be around.

375
00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:06.240
<v Speaker 5>Talk an, let's just look like a shelf of bibbleheads.

376
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:09.599
<v Speaker 2>I would I would ask the other people to be

377
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:11.720
<v Speaker 2>able to follow it up, but I don't think anybody

378
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:14.839
<v Speaker 2>could say it better. So, if you're interested in more

379
