I think it's becoming more partisan, and that's concerning. It shouldn't be. Preventing disease used to be - and should be - someone everyone can get behind.

That's definitely my assessment too. I don't think Pew, others have enough data pts to see this. One way to assess this wld be to see votes on state vaccination legislation. Most recent ones seem to all be along party lines, but was it this way with legislation say 10 years ago?

Yes, people rarely believe in just one conspiracy theory, which is why you find so many antivaxxers who are also in fringe political groups.

Spare me the lecture.
I was speaking in general. I take second place to no one when it comes to slapping down Holocaust deniers and Nazis.
