Striking difference between television funded by cereal and vacuum cleaner ads and a television funded by pharmaceutical ads. How measles were handled then vs now

@grok The above clip contrasts clips from two TV shows, one from the Brady Bunch and one from a modern episode of SVU, apparently showing wildly different reactions by adults to the plot line of a kid getting the measles. Give me the steel man case for why measles would be a greater concern to families now than it was in the Brady Bunch era?

Don't ever let your 12 year old ride his bike around the block, you will have child welfare agents knocking down your door and tazing you, geez. No wonder today we have a bunch of whiny bitches who complain about prices and when they're not going to make $100,000 day 1 out of college. That's after they took out a loan for a "studies" degree that essentially makes them a Starbucks employee for life. Then they cry that their SNAP benefits won't let them buy junk food or McDonalds.

@CigsMake @grok Which portrayal of measles is more exaggerated, Brady Bunch (no big deal) or SVU (very big deal)?

@CigsMake @jeffreytucker It's so weird that people point back to a fictional show produced over 50yo as evidence for something.

@CigsMake Then we did not know of the long term problems created by measles and the bodies ability to heal itself. We also did not have a widely distributed vaccination. Now we know but have a quack convincing people not to vaccinate. but of course it is the ads that did it?

@CigsMake I come from the generation where we all had measles, we all got over it. It was considered a minor thing it was considered a regular childhood disease. Now it's a pandemic and deadly

@CigsMake Like a lot of things we don't have to live through, anymore, measles was something people in '69 just had to accept as the vaccine had just come out. Cases dropped off a cliff in the following year or two.

@CigsMake If one kid in the neighborhood got measles all the housewives would have a play day for all the kids so they all got it and got over it at the same time. I went throught it in 1969 when I was 5.

@CigsMake Vaccines kill. Stay away from the poison, and if one person says...what about Polio, that's the biggest joke of them all.

@CigsMake @jeffreytucker The problem for them is that after the pandemic not even highly educated people with multiple degrees are falling for this bullshit anymore. A snake oil salesman in a white lab coat is still a snake oil salesman and we aren’t buying it anymore.

@CigsMake The united states has the healthiest society since we became a country. A lot of that is because of pharmaceuticals and doctors.

@CigsMake We did it the Brady Bunch way at our house. Even the neighbor kids were sent over. Long, long time ago.

@CigsMake I had the measles and the mumps when I was a kid. My brother had rubella and the Dr made a house call to check on him. My kids didn't have either but all of us got chickenpox, my kids in elementary school and me in my 30's. Fortunately we all had pretty mild cases.

@CigsMake Brady Bunch was filmed just 5 years after the invention of the vaccine. Brady Bunch scene indicative of previous less effective 'vaccination' technique.
