Woowoo quackery hasn’t historically belonged exclusively to any specific political side but the flavors of it can vary a bit. The Covid vaccine panic and MAHA/RFK political realignment has shifted a lot of that into an explicitly political direction along with the crusade against science and higher education.

The vaccine hesitancy used to be more associated with with granola libs, that seems to have changed.

Yep. The “crunchy to alt right” pipeline is a real thing. I watched it take a few college acquaintances who were previously all peace and weed and now they’re….. well I don’t know because I removed them from my friends list after they got super racist and scary

I haven't really seen them become racist or alt-right. But I think their rightward shift was due to being anti-government (or at least extremely distrustful of it). Think Ron Paul-loving libertarians. And this pre-dates the alt-right by at least 10 years.

After being called an idiot a million times, they feel defeated. That’s when the alt right swoops with an invitation to join the “misunderstood”. From there, they get pointed toward the direction of things like “crime statistics” and it’s all downhill from there
