Why give these people a platform? We all know antivax quacks exist. There’s no need to help share their bullshit.
It takes no effort to come up with made up antivax lines of reasoning since they don't have to be true. Disproving them takes much more effort so it's worth knowing the most common ones.
Disproving them can work if they are debunked by dedicated people. Education can work. It's just foolhardy to try to debunk them if you aren't some YouTuber who's dedicated to constantly debating and debunking these type of people. If you constantly educate people on why this stuff is wrong, less people may fall into this stuff in the first place, prevention is a necessary and doable thing.
