I was not giving my "opinion" about people that have fallen for lies about Vaccines and Climate change. I am quoting findings from numerous researchers all over the world. The debate on these issues ended long ago. Universities are studying the media consumption and psychological profiles of people that have fallen for these lies... Not just one university. Dozens of them, including MIT.
"Climate change deniers, anti-vaxxers and anti-GM campaigners: groups of people characterised by sometimes vehement denial of the conclusions of scientific research. This “rejection of science” poses a problem for modern society, the spread of doubt and misinformation from these groups can have negative – and potentially tragic – consequences (Lewandowsky & Oberauer, 2016)"
