    As Ron White says, “you can’t fix stupid”. Seems to be an epidemic of it out there. If only there were a shot you could take…

      I think the Ron White comment is pretty stupid, which leaves us with a nice paradox.

      You might not be able to fix people who are willfully stupid. You can certainly try to prevent people from being sucked into the whirlpool of misinformation

      The sad thing is Ron White fans think he’s talking about people who take vaccines. It wouldn’t surprise me if he was anti vaccine.
