Yea, it does. Whether due to fears from misinformation, intentioned rejection of the social good, or just to troll - whatever the cause antivaxxers massively eroded public health and discourse. There's no shades of grey here - antivaxxers were simply wrong.
Now, some of the individuals were swept up in the misinformation and thought they acted in an ethical manner - those are folks who I hope grow as individuals and become better people... but the grifters - those who spread that misinformation for money, fame or political influence - those people can get fucked.
You still have to handle the people around you everyday who have never receieved an injection. You have stop living my emotions and opinions and actively seek out verified information that goes against what you believe in and see if you can provide your own counter information to disprove it. If you can't be friends with someone without knowing if they got injected, you are in a cult of invinsible ignorance.
