I know these billionaire dweebs like Thiel and his ilk share a vision of the world they believe is over populated. I thought that was the genesis of the antivax rhetoric, but it isn't consistent. They would lose power if there supporters were dropping while the opposition lived. Maybe they are speed running all the options, pestilence, war, famine
Antivax rhetoric isn’t top-down. It’s part of the oppositional defiant disorder inherent to the American dumbass.
TIL this has a name.
