So by this definition, if someone is pro-vaccine and thinks those who refuse to be vaccinated are idiots and wrong but doesn't believe that the government should force people to get vaccinated under threat of violence (because that's what a mandate is) they're an anti-vaxxer.

Honk fucking honk.

Is it any surprise? They love to stretch the definitions of words into everyone who does not support precisely what they do. See: 'racist'.
