Shrek Writer: "anti-vaxxer is equivalent to calling someone [hard-r n-word]"

Also on another note how do we not have laws mandating vaccines yet? If a parent punched their child in the face child services would come and take the child from the parent for abuse. THIS is also abuse and also can endanger other people around the child as well how is this not seen in the legal system as abuse and neglect?

Muh freedoms. Its going to take a massive wave of totally preventable death and suffering before it becomes potentially on the table for it to become mandatory. And if it does happen, they'll get dragged kicking and screaming along the way because they're being pulled out of their comfortable ignorance. No, don't expect them to own up to it even then. But then again, we cant even have common sense gun laws.

I am super thankful for the mass rejection of anti-vaxx movement.

For many years they were trying to go maintream and normalize that shit, it could have gone either way.

Gunny T Highway · Nov 24, 2018

I...uh...wow, they really went there. Some people man.

SurrenderDorothy · Nov 24, 2018

I'd sooner be friends with a flat-earther than these melts. Though I suspect there may be some overlap.

Next Shrek will be about Fiona wanting to vaccinate their children and Shrek kidnapping them while going on a journey across the United Swamps with his pal Donkey and completely new character A' the Frog (voiced by Alex Jones).

jelly · Nov 24, 2018

I don't understand how they think that way, aren't they vaccinated themselves just like everyone else, their parents too. How does that escape their brain?

Makes you think if they did have an autistic child they would probably be so disgusted as to give them up for adoption and what if they even came into contact with someone with autism or a disability, would they run away because cooties.

"I guess that being anti-vax is so dumb, offensive, and damaging to society that you could say someone who takes that position is on a moral ground equivalent to racists, even if this is a crass way to express that sentiment"

What in the flaming fuck

Imagine hating children so much that you unleash Shrek on them, then follow it up by fighting against their health care?

This jerkoff wrote Pirates of the Carribean, too, by the way.

Does Jones' character turn gay at the end?

Well he only is credited with screenplay, certainly not the music.

Wishing violent death on people who put their foot in their mouth. Is that really necessary?

Hahaha get real, my bigger concern is that the people would misconstrue this kind of sassy wishful thinking as a sincere death threat

I feel like this is a perfect time for a reminder that even getting hit by a truck like the person you quoted said is a far more comfortable death than catching polio,a disease that has been eradicated by vaccines, should it reach the brain or spine.

Anti vaccination people are pushing for the murder of children, and they should be treated as outcasts and shunned for it by every society on the planet.

He's a prolific hollywood writer he is not some nobody. And people need to know when he says such vile tripe so they can boycott his projects.

Also saying it's not thread whining doesn't make it less thread whining.

I don't want to hear about racism, it's better that way, if we ignore it, it will just go away.

It's irresponsible to give it a platform. I mean, it's not like we have a racist president or anything.

Deleted member 4413 · Nov 24, 2018

What a fucking dumbass.

Vacinnes should be free and required by federal law or risk social services knocking on your door.

I feel sorry for anyone that personally knows this dipshit.

I fucking wish anti-vaxxers were treated a hundredth as badly as people of color

I came into the thread hoping it'd be something like, "Being an anti-vaxxer is like being a racist, ignorant and uninformed."

I couldn't have been more disappointed.

Anti vaxxers choose to be pure ignorant scum my man

I'm more disappointed by the fact that we would equate anti-vaxxers to being racist. One is a group of idiots, the other is a group that literally believes people shouldn't exist.

Verelios · Nov 25, 2018

Oh. Okay then.

Pata Hikari · Nov 25, 2018

You know I think we can give him what he wants.

Let's not call them Anti-Vax anymore. Let's use a name for them that's more accurate to what they're trying to accomplish.

I think "Child Killer" works pretty well.

Ehh. Both lead to people getting killed. It'd be a daft analogy for other reasons (in that you can't really compare a racial slur to someone not getting their kids vaccinated). But let's not whitewash the actions of anti-vaxxers. Horrible actions born out of ignorance are still horrible actions.

The 'Disappointment Scale' is a pretty stupid thing to pick nits over, especially when the person in the OP is both a racist and an anti-vaxxer.

Anti-vaxxers literally get children killed because of their stance on vaccination, dude. Willful idiocy and hate occupy an equal platform when it comes to the death of other humans.

Who am I kidding, of course people are trying to marginalize racism, I guarantee none of them are black.
