Is this the mushrooms you pick in the cow pasture near your house that
gives you these visions?

"The Anti-Vaccination Argument

It’s simple. Libertarians believe that you own your mind, body, and
life. Therefore, libertarians believe that you have the right to refrain
from putting something into your body that you do not want to. If
consistent, this principle would support the anti-vaccine argument. The
Libertarian Party’s official website reads,

Libertarians believe that each person has the right to make their own
medical decisions. Libertarians support removing government meddling
from healthcare.

Furthermore, since this is a debate that includes parental privilege,
let’s see the party’s stance on education.

Libertarians advocate free-market education where parents, teachers, and
students, not the government, should make their own choices on education.

The site would continue to add, “Every child is different. Every
community is different.” Many non-libertarians would scoff at the notion
that parents should dictate the educational experiences for their child
from the time they are born until the day they become an adult. If this
principle remains consistent, shouldn’t parents be able to also dictate
the healthcare for their child, meaning the ability to hold their kids
back from vaccinations?"

Now, of course, there are loonytarians who do not oppose vaccination. I
have no idea what camp you might be in on this issue.
