at least to me anti-covid-vaccine people arent even in the same stratosphere as flat earthers. i think they're wrong, or at least wildly exaggerated in their skepticism, but not nearly as insane as flat earthers.
president of the flat earth society is or was an atheist. that flat earth is some how a christian view is more of an internet phenomena. if you told any christian i know that they are a flat earther it would probably just be more proof to them that you need saving.

the anti evolution young earth creationist and religious hardliners are a subset of the anti covid vaxx movement. and admittedly are the least educated on the matter, and generally just share facebook misinformation without understanding any of the science. they mistrust all science as a default, and will only share stories on things like variants because it agrees with their core beliefs.
i dont frankly think it applies to most of the posters in this thread, except for a few of those whackos that quote scripture and blame satan for everything in here.

I see them as largely the same, because I am far more interested in somebody's methodology of drawing conclusions than their actual conclusions. Somebody using a good methodology will eventually correct, but if your methodology is crap you will continue down the path of crap.
All it takes is for the Covid deniers to think they've sniffed conspiracy among scientists to fall down into flat earth, climate change denial, GMO nonsense (Mel already does this), etc. etc.
