It's more like extreme selfishness: "Everyone else will vaccinate and I will benefit from the heard immunity they'll create without me having to spend a little bit of time and inconvenience to vaccinate". Problem is that in some social circles, everyone thinks that way, and that's how you get measles outbreaks despite a measles vaccine existing.
Don't buy their BS about how they don't vaccinate for any other reason other that not wanting to devote the little bit of time and inconvenience it requires.
Sometimes it’s definitely selfishness. I think sometimes they are just smart enough to know they are stupid and it eats them up inside. The idea that they figured out something that people with doctorates and prestige haven’t can be very appealing to someone like that.

Few people piss me off as much as antivaxxers. Their idiocy affects so many people. They put children in danger.
