I don't think it's a cognitive bias preventing them from accurately assessing risk for a lot of these people. Based on some I've interacted with, they don't care about how much pain they experience as long as the other side feels it worse.

Others are just pure contrarians who don't put any thought into it beyond "If the radical leftist blue hairs don't want it, it's probably a good thing."
