    This 100%. More diagnoses doesn’t necessarily mean an increase due to some nefarious cause - no matter how much the antivax loonies want that to be true.

      For sake of argument: even if vaccines have some non-zero percent chance of triggering autism, their argument is basically that it is better to die than to get autism.

      I do not believe that vaccines cause autism, this is purely a hypothetical.

        Yeah they have a really fucked-up way of looking at autism. There are tons of autistic people out there living great lives and contributing a hell of a lot more to society than many of these antivax ghouls.
