Strong start! Absolutely the right take: comments on internet are real, but their veracity is questionable.

And then a flop of a finish. Zero possibility that some may have had true negative reactions and are simply responding honestly, or a complete write off due to similarities. Just a blanket assertion that they're liars.
You must not be familiar with pre covid anti vaxxers and how they operate on social media; they come out of the woodwork and spam stuff like this all the time. I am sure they are some true negative reactions within the group, but most of it is likely a combination of people who don't understand the concept of correlation =/= causation and people posting straight up lies.
Sorry that I don't happen to believe random Facebook comments from a Detroit local news station post that somehow garnered over 200k comments in 1 week.
