Victorian era surgeons didn’t wash their hands and found the suggestion that they should wash their hands offensive.

This was said by Charles Meigs AFTER multiple papers had been published showing how important it was that surgeons wash their hands and sterilize their instruments.

The reason? Class. The gentlemen doctors weren’t like those dirty poor people.

Which sounds a bit like anti-vaxxers.

Because TODAY, when we were going to see the eradication of measles within in our lifetime, the upper crust decided that their children didn’t need to have “chemicals” put in their bodies. And why would they need vaccines anyway? Their upper class precious children could never contract measles… not like those dirty poor people.

If you don’t think this outbreak stems from blatant classism and racism, just remember that the lowest vaccination rates in California are also in its whitest, wealthiest cities.

Diseases don’t’ care about your class. They don’t go “Oh, this unvaccinated person has a lot of money. I should just look for someone who can’t afford healthcare instead.”

mom doesnt believe me that im not the only one who thinks this

It doesn’t. It doesn’t. If it were based on studies on what actually works, it’d be completely different and children would keep their love of learning FAR beyond the age of 6.

loved school, but I can still tell you that it didn’t work.  It doesn’t work for anyone, not in the long run.

GDI, when I die I wanna be cremated but there won’t be enough ashes for me to become everything I want to be.

I want to:

In death, I want to become everything that once was and everything that will be. In death, I want to become new life. I want to be the beginning and the end. In death, I want to become a godess.
