I used to facilitate anger management group therapy for forensic populations who were mandated to treatment by the courts.
I’m thinking of offering similar groups pro-bono for social media trolls.

It’s denial.

RFK Jr’s book describes how he denies that HIV causes AIDS and believes it’s caused by recreational drugs used by gay people.

Pill-shaming is ableism.
It derives from poor science literacy and pseudoscientific health ideology borne out of the early evolution of the wellness industry.
