Honestly - almost no one really disagrees with that statement either. We all know it might not be helpful to get people vaccinated but we also know it’s true.

Listen, the issue here is that you cannot clump two uncorrelated issues together, and even if they were correlated, it wouldn't be fair as for sure there's people that (please sit down, this may me quite shocking to you) do not want to get the vaccine BUT are also not part of whatever group you refer to as "the hateful ones".
- Spivak 5y agoNowhere does “vaccines, masks, and lockdowns became a wedge issue picked up by large groups of people largely associated with hate” and “anyone who is anti-vax must be a part of that group.” You absolutely can clump unrelated issues together when they’re specifically adopted by people who organize under a common banner or label. You don’t think that issues that make up “the liberal agenda” are reasonably well defined? Does it mean that literally every single liberal cares about all of them with the same fervor? Hell no, but it strongly predicts the views of someone who uses the label and the issues are cut so cleanly you can even make statements like “the typical person who cares strongly about native peoples identifies as a liberal.”
