"People need to research for themselves"
You're right, it does look like people like you need to do research for themselves.

There is no link between vaccines, or aluminum in vaccines, with autism. None. The vast bulk of really high quality science outweighs this study by orders of magnitude that are beyond description.
Shaw and Tomljenovic are not credible researchers.
They are essentially paid shills of the anti-vaccine industry.
They have had papers retracted, and their research was described by WHO as “seriously flawed.“
This research was poorly executed using outdated equipment and outdated techniques for DNA analysis.
If we are to accept research that changes our fundamental policies about life saving vaccines, then we need powerful evidence to make that change. This isn’t it.
So about the hypothesis that aluminum causes autism? This study does not support that, not even close.
Vaccines save lives. LIVES. AS IN HUMAN BEINGS.
If you want to challenge this you better have some SOLID evidence to support it because peoples lives are at stake.
And to the OP:
"As always, I am amused and suprised by the hot contestations of the "pro-science" crowd when data emerges which challenges their specific socio-political narrative."
It's pretty obvious if you had any evidence to support your ideas you wouldn't need to make up a big conspiracy like we're all idiots and you're the cool kids on the block who are so much smarter than the guys who dedicate their lives to saving lives.
You would present the evidence, the scientific community would be upset, they'd all cry, they'd be hurt and apologise profusely.
I imagine there'd be massive compensation payouts and questions like: "how did billions of dollars of research into vaccines and autism not pickup something these two paid shills didn't?".
But it's obvious you haven't got shit, so you write shit like "socio-political narrative." as if you're being so cool, edgy and hip, which I'm sure you are.
Speaking of when do your herbal remedies go on sale? I can't wait to drink some nice healing tea that I'm sure will make me feel good but do absolutely jack all to save thousands of children dying every week in Pakistan from vaccine preventable diseases.
You read "thousands of children dying every week" and don't feel a thing because you're so far removed from the cold harsh reality in part thanks to vaccines.
Go away death merchant, it's obvious you're either a paid shill or so biased you can't actually do any proper research.
btw climate change is happening and we're the main cause of it, the earth is round, we landed on the moon, 9/11 was done by middle eastern terrorists who hate America, Egyptians built the pyramids without the help of aliens, and Elvis is dead...
