1. La Propaganda como Arma Política y de Identidad.
Los textos identifican la campaña antivacunas no como una preocupación orgánica, sino como una estrategia política deliberada, principalmente de la derecha, para generar desconfianza en las instituciones científicas. Se asocia el sentimiento antivacunas con una identidad política específica, vinculada a figuras como Trump y RFK Jr., y se menciona la influencia de actores externos como Rusia para desestabilizar.
- But mostly it's the product of a propaganda campaign that made being anti-vax an article of *right wing identity*. Invisible rulers: the people who turn lies into reality.
- The cdc is now just a propaganda arm of the maga agenda. Data will be manipulated if not completely made up.
- I was once told that if you are anti-vax then you are without a doubt a victim of russian propaganda. It’s true.
- The right wing disinformation campaign on vaccines is wholly directed at fauci and the cdc, not governors. It is a propaganda campaign based on lies and distortions, there is no reason to pretend any of it is rooted in reasonabless or facts or good faith.
- Rfk and the gop are maga idiots - propaganda based gossip - not science!! get all your necessary vaccines by only listening to your ! never listen to this current government cdc. .
2. El Impacto Devastador en la Salud Pública.
Se expresa una profunda alarma por las consecuencias tangibles y mortales de la propaganda anticientífica. Los comentarios denuncian el resurgimiento de enfermedades prevenibles como el sarampión, la muerte de niños y adultos, y el riesgo de una pandemia provocada por la desinformación, calificando la situación como una amenaza directa a la seguridad y el bienestar de la sociedad.
- People are so vulnerable to dangerous propaganda. So many kids are going to get sick and die because of anti-vax insanity.
- Bobby brainworms, liar, quack spreading quackery under the guise of health information equal to fox spreading misinformation and propaganda and calling it news is actively bringing back diseases and crippling illnesses to america.
- We need to prepare ourselves for a man-made pandemic due to the stupidity of spreading lies about vaccines.
- All done by some nut convinced by right-wing propaganda that the covid vax had hurt him somehow. Misinformation kills.
- Children are dying and more will because of his antivax propaganda.
3. La Desconfianza en la Ciencia y las Instituciones.
La propaganda ha logrado erosionar la confianza pública en instituciones clave como los CDC, que ahora son percibidos por muchos como herramientas políticas en lugar de fuentes fiables de información médica. Se lamenta cómo la desinformación ha conseguido que una parte de la población desconfíe de la ciencia en general, prefiriendo creer en teorías conspirativas y narrativas sin fundamento.
- It is sad that the cdc can’t be a trusted source for medical information. It’s now the propaganda arm of a conspiracy theory quack.
- Propaganda has that outcome, anti vaxxers found their stride during covid with false information at every turn, once you don’t trust science it’s over.
- A big reason doctors, academics, etc. Have lost public confidence is the massive, coordinated propaganda campaign against any objective truth. Nothing will improve until that propaganda system is ripped down.
- This clip is propaganda. It takes someone known for undermining public health and tries to rebrand them as a savior of scientific credibility. The language (“foremost expert,” “restoring cdc”) is not factual — it’s narrative spin.
- Kennedy has turned the cdc into a politically motivated propaganda machine. Nothing coming out of this administration can be trusted.
4. Tácticas y Mecanismos de la Desinformación.
Los comentarios describen cómo funciona la propaganda: se aprovecha del miedo y la ira para anular el pensamiento crítico, se difunde viralmente a través de las redes sociales y utiliza fragmentos de verdad para construir creencias peligrosas. Se destaca que la exposición a esta desinformación es dañina incluso para quienes no la creen, ya que normaliza la duda y el escepticismo infundado.
- It's unfortunate vaccinations turned out 2b such a useful tool to do fear/rage mongering. That's an essential part of propaganda. If propagandists want u to believe lies to help their party win elections, it really helps to cause u to feel emotions so intense that critical thinking is impossible.
- Amen—exposing people to propaganda is damaging even you know it’s bunk. Kiddo watch anti-vax vids to troll me but ended honestly scared of shots.
- During the pandemic, facebook was widely used to spread anti-vaccine and anti-lockdown propaganda, much of it: emotionally manipulative scientifically false often tied to conspiracy theories (e.g., microchips in vaccines, or government control narratives).
- We are awash in very effective propaganda. The kernel of truth is used to lead people to predetermined and dangerous beliefs. This one also reeks of misogyny.
- It appears propaganda works. Especially that which is self funding and spreads like a virus through the population, making them worse off.
