    Yeah, that’s literally how evolution works!

    The morons’ kids don’t live to reproduce, otherwise idiocracy reigns.

    In the past the dangerous morons sent their kids to die in war, and the people who stayed behind were the ones who were more peaceful, that’s how civilization happened.

      That’s not how evolution works. You’re glossing over the whole “nature vs nurture” debate. Antivax stances are very much nurture based, and definitely not an inheritable characteristic. There may be a slight bias due to intelligence, but there is no shortage of stupid people who are just as willing to vaccinate their kids as smart people.

      Historically, the number of people who have been offered a choice about whether or not their children would participate in a war is vanishingly small compared to those who have not.
