> My wife, while not a full on anti-vaxxer yet, is now suspicious of vaccinations and wants to wait to vaccinate our child, and skip some of them all together. This after having watched some "documentary" series on Youtube. Out of curiosity is your wife college educated? It's the radicalization of "average" people that is most interesting. I suspect what your wife discovered wasn't just a series of videos but a whole community of people deeply committed this nonsense. This is the secret of radicalization: it appears as just a (very rigid) community of like-minded souls. This shows up again and again in the literature and the news. The internet is doing its job of bringing people together. What's not clear is whether any of these communities are actually beneficial.
