Antivaxxers say EXACTLY the same thing about vaccines, you know, and do the same thing: Misrepresent science and cherry pick evidence that seems to support their beliefs that vaccines don't work and are harmful. 1/ https://twitter.com/GirishNaught/status/1332224974015197185 …

Antivaxxers even say almost exactly the same things about themselves. Just as
#COVID19 deniers/minimizers claim they aren't "denying" anything, antivaxxers claim that they aren't denying vaccine science, saying they're not "antivaxxers" but rather "vaccine safety advocates." 2/1 reply 3 retweets 22 likesShow this thread -

Bottom line:
#COVID19 denialists/minimizers don't fool those of us who've studied that antivaccine movement. We've seen this movie before. We've seen their deceptive techniques before. We've seen their sealioning before. 6/64 replies 11 retweets 62 likesShow this thread -

#COVID19 denialists/minimizers/antimaskers also remind me of antivaxxers in that they claim to be "open-minded," but show through their cherry picking of studies, superficially plausible but deceptive arguments, and sealioning, that they are not.
