> The issues are actually more pernicious Some people are just gullible and will always believe what they find to be socially qualified. Some people are just assholes who knowingly harm other people with false information for profit. People who live behind screens find this hard to accept, but people are generally predictable and follow predetermined paths according to their personalities. In the mean time I will continue forward with common sense and guidance from licensed healthcare providers. I am not responsible for the bad decisions other people choose to inflict upon themselves or their children.

Well that's one way to live life, if you can really call that living. No person is an island. A far fewer number of people start out gullible than you think. Ask yourself sometime why so many seem that way, the answer should be common sense and obvious. > People are generally predictable and follow predetermined paths according to their personalities. People are naturally unpredictable, often in a good way, except when they've first been broken by trauma or torture. It seems you've mistaken environment effects for inherent effects. You don't seem to have a high opinion of people. I wouldn't recommend going the lone wolf route in life. That's just 5GW. You can't get anything done if its just yourself. Its important to have friends you can count on everywhere. Also, I'd disagree with trusting guidance from an authority blindly. You should read and find out for yourself about what happened in the Tuskegee study, and about the structural flaws that allowed it to happen which have not really been restructured in any meaningful way. It goes without saying that people are only responsible for their choices, and the consequences of such choices. The includes both the choices leading to actions, and inaction.
