I think all the anti-vaxxers could collectively die in a fire and it wouldn't effect me at all, I really dislike them and would rather they get off my planet.
You are wrong about that. If they all died in a fire, then they would no longer be causing people to not be vaccinated, and consequently would not be causing diseases that should be eradicated to continue to exist. In other words, they are not only harming themselves and their children, they are harming other people, too. This is why they should be condemned. If they only harmed themselves, then I would have no problems with that. As far as I am concerned, anyone may commit suicide at any time. But these fucking assholes cause diseases to spread among people who are not as fucking stupid as they are, and they are rightly condemned for that.
