The people who raged and frothed at the mouth over us not getting jabbed, who said we should be arrested and forced to get jabbed, who said we should be cast out like lepers, who said we deserved the long slow agonizing death that awaited us... Are mad that we're questioning their judgement and sanity.

I can't recall what kind of fallacy he's propping up in that comic, but my brain recognizes it anyways. What a dork, hope the turbo cancer works out for him.

They're also the ones claiming we're obsessed with having not been retards and being purebloods.

The "Covid Carl" thing is a massive strawman, from the outset. Most people don't talk like that; it's extremely rare.

I do love how "You sound vaccinated" gets under the skin of the people who, yeah, got vaccinated, though.

There are at least half a dozen logical fallacies at play here. Straw-man, No True Scotsman, false dilemma, appeal to authority, appeal to emotion, bandwagoning, etc.
