You are just stating the left-wing version of the common and tired right-wing "but protesters were spreading covid, despite caring about covid" trope.
Exact same type of a "i just observed an interesting contradiction" statement, just a different theme/reason used as a justification for the dismissal.
Both are rather pointless, as they bring nothing valuable to the discussion and just derail the conversation into a flamewar on those topics used in the "observations", rather than the actual topic at hand. Seen it way too many times in covid-related threads last year on HN.
