Mike Rowe for the Department of Labor. Rowe, the creator and host of the Discovery Channel show Dirty Jobs, has emerged as a critic of unions and as an anti-vaccine activist.

Oh my fucking fuck.

Since then, she said, she has heard from “thousands and thousands” of other parents who had become disillusioned with what she described as “the fascism of the Democratic party,” such as “mandatory vaccines or maybe medication down the road.” she said. “We already have mandatory chemotherapy that kids have to get—you can get your kid taken away from you if you don’t give them chemo if they have cancer.”

Regarding the vaccines: they’re mandatory for spending time with other children, which is reasonable, as it’s the only way to protect children with suppressed immune systems from communicable diseases while in places like schools.

Regarding the mandatory chemo: Christian scientists ruined it for you, I’m sorry. We can’t trust parents to act in the best interests of the children in their care, because a bunch of parents refused things like tetanus shots and antibiotics, and children died for no good reason. A possible solution would be to have the patient’s doctors decide with input from the parent (s) and patient themselves, but I suspect that would go over even worse.
