Big Journalism is still largely unwilling to call things what they are. Today's example is the Washington Post's use of "vaccine hesitancy" to describe a movement that is based on rejecting science and evidence in favor of dangerous and, increasingly, politically motivated lies.
The people who reject vaccines are attacking their communities. They spread disease and death. We should recognize this, and say it out loud.

If we could stop referring to people trying to deliberately cut power to thousands of people in the middle of a nationwide cold snap as "vandals" or "burglars" that'd be great.
They're terrorists. If another country did that, we'd call it an act of war.
