When scientists warned that milk could be contaminated with bird flu and pasteurized milk was safe, they started drinking raw milk en masse. There is no logic for them.
The defiance thing itself is induced by being a half-sentient talking ape that doesnt like being told things like “No!” “Thats bad, dont do that!” In terms of their actions. The antivaxers also like to layer in government mistrust and religious faith levels of i-must-be-right but the core of defiance is just that people dont like feeling shitty and have poor instinctual coping methods for it.
Its a fairly universal copout for humans to avoid feelings of shame and embarrassment or punishment. Nobody on the planet likes feeling stupid or in the wrong. So when confronted with these feelings some common stategies are out right lying to others or ourselves, or constructing a delusional warped narrative subjective reality in which they’re actually somehow in the right through mental gymnastics, or by rejecting the claim of wrongness through formal argument, or using social dominance plays to forcefully dismiss claims of wrongdoing.
Usually people find a strange mixture of multiple of these strategies in emotional combative arguments and coping with their aftermath.
In an ideal world people would be able to instantly accept blame and fault for wrongdoing, eat he feelings of shame and self improve without trying to weasle their way out of punishment if they think they can get away with it. A properly adjusted adult who has eaten their fair share of humble pie over heir life encroaches on that kind of humility and willingness to update their assumptions given evidence, is able to say “oh shit I was wrong about that, huh? My bad.” Or “the science nerds who study these things probably have more authority on the matter than I do, I’ll default to their ideas.” This however, is not an ideal world.
Children have zero impulse control and are barely sentient enough to construct coherent sentences or internal monologues. Their tiny brains are still developing and so they get a free pass more or less when it comes to being defiant little shits defaulting to instinctual ape copout strategies. all kids have their bad moments and are still learning. The problem is when they never stop defaulting to these things in adulthood.
mRNA vaccines carry a code for your cells to produce the viral protein shells, so not only is not a living virus, it’s never been the virus and could not be more harmless.
It’s also impossible for it to alter your DNA.
What it could do is be weaponized to produce prions or whatever but the dummies never cry about that (because you can disprove it easily)
They’re terrified of a (usually) dead virus/other bug in a tiny vial but will do ozempic, massive doses of ivermectin and god knows what else lol

And then, a few of the less dense ones realized that raw milk was dangerous and they could reduce the risk by… boiling it.
But they won’t drink pastuerized milk.
Oppositional defiant disorder. Very well understood, researched heavily especially in young children.
Can it be induced by media consumption and cult behavior?
Or are they all kids that had it beaten out of them, but never properly treated, and now we all have to deal with the aftermath.

I don’t see anyone dealing with it.
“Don’t tell me what to do!” I’d bet reverse psychology would be pretty effective on these asshats.

Your big words scare anti-vaxxers.
