  3. This isn’t happening because your average Joe gobbled up anti-vax propaganda. This is happening because the capitalist elite saw an economic slowdown during lockdowns and funded and pushed all sorts of conspiracies. The anti-vaxx, COVID denialist movement didn’t emerge grassroots. It was systematically pushed and promoted by the most powerful people to protect their interests.
