“The researchers said the disinformation was “being used as a kind of Trojan horse” to coax New Zealanders from vaccine hesitancy to vaccine resistance, and then to the embrace of far-right ideologies like white supremacy and extreme misogyny. Some of the most extreme content, they said, comes from overseas, particularly Australia and the United States.”

Nothing bogus about that research.

Do people actually believe this stuff?

If you don’t take the vaccine, next step is wife beating, then gassing Jews...

They’re gaslighting. They are the ones spouting disinformation.

"At anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine protests in cities like Wellington and Christchurch, “Make America Great Again” hats and flags from the QAnon conspiracy theory movement are visible among the crowds. Sam Brett, a student at the University of Canterbury who attended recent protests for his doctoral research, said they felt like a “miniature, New Zealand version of a Trump rally.”

Along with the portion you highlighted, this all sounds like a bunch of disinformation. Trump supports the vaccines, and I really doubt they are seeing a lot of people with Trump hats at these rallies in Australia. And the attempt to link this to QAnon and "white-supremacy" sounds like something out of the FBI's playbook.
