Do anti-vaxers avoid dentists, doctors, and optometrists? Don't they know that without modern medicine half of them would have died before the age of three?

Because everyone's a victim these days, spreading the victimhood around evenly is probably all we can aspire to. Is that depressing?

Does hearing the truth usually help or hurt one's mood?

Given the rather narrow range of good outcomes in a hostile universe, aren't the odds against the truth being good?
