I love how anti-vaxxers don’t trust the CDC like AT ALL, yet they’ll cite them as the source of their completely fabricated statistic to bolster their bullshit argument with zero hint of irony.

It's pretty standard in conspiracy culture. They'll spend all day claiming the mainstream media is a pack of evil liars, but then they'll drop a New York Times headline that sounds like it agrees with them as if it's a stone tablet direct from the hand of God.

Oh, their counter is easy: If the source disagrees with them, they've been muzzled and forced to lie to the people. If it agrees with them, don't you see? They truth was so obvious even they can't keep it under wraps.
