🦠 🎉 🤦🏻♂️ 🇺🇸 More than 150 unvaccinated students in South Carolina are sitting at home right now because of a measles outbreak. Public schools in Spartanburg County sent them home to quarantine after exposure. Measles. The disease we supposedly eradicated before Friends went off the air. The Department of Health confirmed at least 11 cases statewide this year, eight since September. That’s a Van Halen comeback tour. Measles spreads through the air and hangs around long enough to infect someone who walks in two hours later. It can damage lungs, hearing, and cognition. It can kill. But sure, let’s keep pretending “personal choice” is sacred when it ends up in the ICU, just like asking people at the resort to only swim in the area of the pool where the diarrhea isn't. Parents who skip vaccines call it freedom. I call it gambling with borrowed chips. Schools become collateral. The community pays the price. Kids too young to vaccinate or too sick to respond get caught in the fallout. The state has quarantine laws for a reason. It’s not tyranny. It’s math. When vaccination rates drop below 95 percent, herd immunity collapses. South Carolina sits closer to 92.7. Fun on a bun. The story isn’t about fear of needles. It’s about the collapse of trust. Decades of disinformation turned science into a belief system. Parents started treating experts like politicians. Public health departments got gutted. The CDC lost credibility. TikTok and RFK filled the vacuum. Now local officials beg for compliance while conspiracy peddlers get paid in clicks. We keep treating measles like a history lesson. It’s a warning. And we’re ignoring it again. If this hits home, toss it a like, a repost, comment, or tag someone you may be ambivalent about. One click makes a bigger difference than you think. Are you new here? First off, my condolences. But welcome. Glad you found me. Stick around, hit follow, and help me get to 50,000 follower goal by year’s end. The more of us here, the harder we are to ignore.

Intelligent people often make terrible decisions. This Nobel Prize-winning physicist spent 35+ years proving it. He exposed the most dangerous illusion in human thinking. Once you see it, you can’t unsee it. And you’ll question every decision you’ve ever made. This is Richard Feynman: - Nobel Prize in Physics - Helped build the atomic bomb - Solved the Challenger disaster - Rewrote how we think about science But his greatest insight wasn’t about atoms or rockets. It was about human ignorance. Ever heard of Feynman’s Rule? He said: “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.” It’s not about what you know. It’s about what you think you know. The smarter you get, the easier it is to fool yourself. Intelligence gives you better reasons to justify your mistakes. But Feynman saw through this. He believed: “I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned.” This is the problem: You think you know. But real thinkers don’t chase certainty. They chase not knowing. That’s where Feynman’s genius lies. He didn’t want answers. He wanted better questions. Feynman doubted everything, even the things that seemed obvious. He never took things for granted. Every answer led to a new question. Feynman wasn’t afraid to admit when he was wrong. He was constantly learning—and part of that was unlearning. What about you? When was the last time you admitted you didn’t know? You don’t need all the answers. You need better questions. “The imagination of nature is far greater than the imagination of man.” Feynman understood that reality is much stranger and more complex than we could ever grasp. His genius wasn’t in what he knew. It was in how much he was willing to unlearn. Feynman didn’t chase being right. He chased truth. #science #imagination #physics #ceo #decisionmaking #intelligence | 128 comments on LinkedIn
