Because people like to group everyone in to camps so if I say anything remotely dismissive of an official covid narrative, I'm probably just some anti science, anti vaxxer, whose opinion isn't worth listening too (according to them).

So at a minimum, dismiss me if you want, but not because I'm in the evil other camp, because I'm not.

Or perhaps because people should not be divided into the two extremes of antivax conspiracy theorists and infinite lockdown aficionados.

That’s just a convenient fallacy to dismiss criticism.

I agree.. but unfortunately nowadays we shove people who refuse or are skeptical about COVID vaccine in the "anti-vaxxer" basket so people have to clarify that

I found the disclosure helpful because I had assumed they were one of those vocal antivaxxers.
