Dear Antivaxxers,
The reason you are ridiculed is that you exemplify the Dunning-Kruger effect, which, as put by Daniel R. Hawes, describes the phenomenon whereby “people fail to grasp their own incompetence, precisely because they are so incompetent“. In other words, people who know the least about a subject tend to think they know the most.
Not because there is some kind of conspiracy against you.

Do You Have To Vaccinate?
My opinion? No. You don't have to.
But if you don't, you can't come around me or my friends and family. You can't go to any public place that me, my family or friends go to. I don't even want to see you at my doctors office or my hospital. I don't want your kids in my public school.
So, no you don't have to. I just think that your beliefs that put the lives of others at risk to serious illness or death negates any perceived right to participate in activities with the rest of us.
In other words, your disbelief in science can kill you but not the rest of us. That is your right.
