    It’s mildly interesting that the perception of anti-vaxxer pre-covid was a hippy or stay at home mum, but has radically changed since covid. That said, having entered into hippy spaces a lot of them were always more individualist/libertarian than they themselves would like to believe, and worked backwards from their dislike of needles/modern medicine/doing anything for anyone else to claim weird things about vaccines

      That is actually my moms type. A pagan, “natural therapy,” crystal healing tarot reading type. She never trusted vaccines, or Big Pharma, but she wasn’t all conspiracy crazy about it just that she didn’t trust corporations to make anything safe and not be entirely profit focused.
