They are anti-reality. They are a net negative in our efforts to contain a highly contagious virus. I can see why you are scornful of them. But that doesn't make them a significant cause.
I agree it will have had some effects, both directly and indirectly. It's not clear to me how significant the effects are. Granted, we have to act on imperfect information at times.
How much has anti-mask protesters contributed to the surge? They got a lot of coverage in [social] media, but what's the marginal impact they have, given their frequency? It's important to establish the actual…

You're questioning the doom narrative.
Different people have different specialisms, and they each have their own goals.
Analogies aren't meant to withhold careful scrutiny. They're suggestive.
I wasn't commenting on expected outcomes of their behaviour, just that I think it's a bit of a jump say to they are "rude and abrasive " in general.
