Mildly Infuriating

Can we call it now? The usa is not a real nation that should be taken seriously.

Do these people understand that rabies is 100% fatal?

Wild that rabies doesn’t scare people, but imaginary dog autism does.

Today I learned that 37% of Americans are barely functional morons.

Because of vaccinations, my dog has a pretty low IQ. She can't even do simple arithmetic, she's non verbal, and cannot maintain eye contact. So sad.

The brainworm won. And while Im not a fan of eugenics... I think america needs to do the rest of the world a solid and sterilize that 37% to protect the human race.

Autistic dogs? You mean they will be more obsessed with catching that squirrel than normal?

My dog is afraid of trains which is occasionally inconvenient for traveling somewhere far as we live car free.

If I had just paired his vaccines with Tylenol he would have instead been able to identify the year and model of every locamotive 🚂 and seek them out like he does now with french fries. 🍟

Even if that's true.

Autism

Or

Rabies

What the actual fuck?

Fun fact: Rabies is pretty much the most-lethal disease ever. A diagnosis is an absolute death sentence, followed by an agonizing death.

Why stop at having your children die of preventable diseases when you can also have your pets die from preventable diseases?

Solve it with enforcement. If they have to come out over a dog issue and the fucking thing don’t have a rabies vaccination, it gets put down. No exceptions. The dog doesn’t have any religious affiliation so that argument won’t work either.

Have these people ever interacted with dogs? I'm pretty sure autism is their baseline.

vaccinate your dog, everyone

This is beyond stupid. Not least of which is because all dogs are already basicslly austistic toddlers when they're perfectly healthy.

This is so stupid that it makes me think maybe the "great filter" (the reason we don't see space-faring civilizations everywhere) is actually that life forms who evolved by fighting for survival and going through natural selection cannot psychologically handle a post-scarcity society. It's like when the threats disappear everybody forgets they exist even if they are well documented historically.

Related: if you don't know about how horrifying a disease is, go search for some articles and copypasta about it. Congrats on being one of today's (un)lucky 10,000!

37 percent of Americans are irredeemably stupid. I see that number over and over for the stupidest shit.

Just in case anybody didn't read the article and doesn't already know: Wild animals infected with rabies aren't just the stereotypical raging aggressive terror beasts you see in the media, they can also be super friendly and usually docile.

Obviously the best advice is just to leave wild animals alone and keep your distance. However, if you see a feral or wild animal behaving in an uncharacteristic way, added caution is needed. This includes things like seeing traditionally nocturnal animals like skunks and raccoons out and about during the daytime or having them be unusually friendly / fearless / docile to the point where they don't retreat and may even come up to investigate you. It doesn't mean that they are infected with rabies, but that's definitely a potential symptom of rabies (but can also be a sign of other infectious diseases that should activate your spidey senses).

You are not a Disney princess and ~~Cinderella~~ Snow White is not a realistic presentation of how healthy wild animals act.

studies like these show Americans have a truly representative government now
