Hello anita,

That is a very nice passage indeed. It certainly seems that people who are entrenched in their views will not budge, much like me who is convinced that the vaccination is a positive thing, it seems like people who are convinced of the other side of the argument will also not budge. Maybe it means.. to let go of the notions or desire to enact change on those who will not change, and to instead focus on changing those who are not entrenched in their views and those who may be unsure of their views? I can certainly see how this is a much better use of my time than attacking people online.

For now.. I think I simply have to avoid the triggering events and avoid forums where people may push anti-vax views. It is difficult but I will try. Some of these views are toxic and also plastered all over the Web, so maybe I just need to learn how to calm myself down.
