Amazon has apparently started removing anti-vaccine documentaries from its Amazon Prime Video streaming service. The move came days after a CNN Business report highlighted the anti-vaccine comment available on the site, and hours after Rep. Adam Schiff wrote an open letter to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, saying he is concerned "that Amazon is surfacing and recommending" anti-vaccination books and movies.
Anti-vaccine movies that were previously available free for Prime subscribers, like "We Don't Vaccinate!," "Shoot 'Em Up: The Truth About Vaccines," and "Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe," are now "currently unavailable."
BuzzFeed News was first to report that "Vaxxed" was no longer available. Amazon did not respond to questions about why the films are no longer available on Prime Video.
However, while some anti-vaccine videos are gone from the Prime streaming service, a number of anti-vaccine books were still available for purchase on Amazon.com when CNN Business reviewed search results on Friday afternoon, and some were still being offered for free to Kindle Unlimited subscribers. A sponsored post for the book "Vaccines On Trial: Truth and Consequences of Mandatory Shots" also remained live.
As people with common sense, we must drown out the voice of the misinformed anti-vaxxer shills

Amazon Smile still allows you to donate money to Anti-Vaxx charities (e.g. "Texans for Vaccine Freedom", "Physicians for Informed Consent", "National Vaccine Information Center", etc). There's at least a dozen different "charities" focused on spreading anti-Vaxx, Amazon is donating 0.5% of each eligible purchase to them.

Even worse, some of those antivax charities might use 100% of their donations for their stated missions.

Friendly reminder that anti-anti-vaxxing is an astroturf psyop to ensure that you don't question what they're injecting you with and to discredit other conspiracies via guilt-by-association tactics. Not even an anti-vaxxer, even though anti-vaxxing raises good questions. Anti-vaxxing has existed for decades, makes you wonder why it's such a big issue now. Flat earth is also an astroturf psyop to discredit other conspiracies but also to root out government rogue agents and to identify those who are gullible enough to believe it. It helps to identify actual conspiracy theorists so the government can silence them. Just food for thought.

As much as I hate anti-vaxxers they still have a right to voice their hateful, idiotic platform. Seeing as Amazon is a private organization, on the other hand, they can remove whatever they wish from their media outlets.
