You’re not the arbitor of news. Being able to discredit her is important to a lot of people who have lost friends and family to get quackery.
To some of us, any argument you can use to bring those you love, people who are once upon a time intelligent, rational creatures, back into reality is important.
Her being disgraced may give her another 15 seconds of happiness, but it’s another point of argument. It won’t be a winning point for everyone, but it can be a tipping point for some.
You much think it’s bad journalism, but you’re not the arbiter for everyone. So, since you like to put your head on the sand and be ignorant about the people who spread dangerous medical misinformation, the kind that lead to mobs in Spain trying to pull down cellular towers, scroll past and keep doing that while the rest of us talk about seagulls
I know I’m not the fucking arbiter of news my dude I literally said IMO.
IMO = in my opinion
There you go, you learned something new. I’m not a mod I’m not calling for this post to be removed I’m just saying in MY OPINION it’s not global news.
Edit: to add onto this point I appreciate that you think it might change some people’s opinions on this anti vaxx stuff but after dealing with my mom’s anti vaxx bullshit I really think anyone who’s dumb enough to believe in this shit won’t be swayed by someone losing their medical license they will just point to it and be like “SEE THE GOVERNMENTS ARE TRYING TO SUPPRESS US! ITS A CONSPIRACY!!”
Every time something like this is in the news my mum just believes her crazy shit even more. It gives credibility that the news and government are colluding somehow.
This is such a bad take.
