Re: Because Every Mayim Bialik Secret Has To Have This

Nope. But when someone has gone on the record as being personally anti-vaxx and STILL supports organizations which are anti-vaxx, then claims to have vaccinated her kids only AFTER receiving a bunch of criticism for it, then people are going to question the validity of her claims.

Fair enough. However, I will point out that organizations like that are not usually universal in their beliefs. If you want for example, support in your crusade to normalize long-term breastfeeding, sometimes you have to associate with people who also believe crazy shit about vaccines. Who think that you yourself believe crazy shit about vaccines.

I've been part of worker's Unions that have used my dues to support political causes I don't agree with, but that won't make me dump the Union.

Sorry, but nah. I can understand you're in a bind with the union, but Bialik is not under pressure to join the Holistic Moms Network because she needs to keep their job. A more relevant analogy would be like someone who joins the Tea Party because they're a fiscal conservative and claims that pesky racism and bigotry is just one of the necessary evils.

Nice dig at organized labour, anon. How's your health insurance?

DA

I'm pretty sure her comment about unions was in response to the commenter she was responding to, who mentioned negative aspects of belonging to a union:

Dude I think antivax is dangerous bullshit but in no sane world is it as bad as racism and bigotry.

I think you're a bit of a goof, anon.

But the analogy wasn't to suggest that X is equally dangerous to Y. It's making the point that the Tea Party, like the Holistic Moms Network, is an organization with voluntary membership and some controversial viewpoints. Joining either organization and claiming that you HAVE to do it if you want to meet like-minded people who believe in [innocuous viewpoint] but just HAPPEN to get lumped in the same group as people who believe in [controversial viewpoint] is a specious argument.
