I don't want to come off as both sides, I'm very much pro vaccine, I do not want people to die, but it's extraordinarily difficult to appeal to these people on an emotional level that I do not blame people for just wanting shit to end, even if it ends up with more dead people.

I don't think it's both sidesing. It's a complex and fucked up situation. Antivaxxers got this way largely due to societal pressure but they also can't be absolved of their own personal responsibility. Making fun of them isn't "productive" but nothing is - we don't have an effective deradicalization pipeline. Outside of more vaccine mandates there's nothing to be done. And while I don't really want more people to die I can't say it isn't darkly funny. Empathy isn't mutually exclusive with dark humor tbh. Personally I find too much of this stuff gets depressing but I'm not gonna begrudge people for it.

Basically the bottom line is we live in a society
