<< Measles is back now in the US and puts everyone at risk of physical harm
Everyone?
Yes, everyone, including those with preexisting immunity, because of the risk of breakthrough infections.
Previous infection as well as the vaccine is only 97% effective against future infection, which means a significant amount of people are getting sick despite making the right choice and getting vaccinated. The fringe loonies are ruining things for everyone.

Not bad, but if you know this then you also must know that the symptoms on that infection are mild and the number of of those people are small[1] so not quite the case of " significant amount of people are getting sick" as you are eager to claim.

Measles kills people. You’re defending behavior that kills children. Kindly get out, preferably through a window.

You know.. outrage as such, performative or otherwise does not really do much to bolster one's argument. For the record, neither does emotional appeal with 'think of the children'. Or at least not that often on this internet forum anyway.
I (another third party) still don't know what you're trying to say. It seems like you are equating "private citizen physicians not accepting patients who refuse to follow medical advice with respect to vaccinations" with "the government is deporting people with different opinions on the Israel/Palestine conflict"? Or generally equating "public health" with "differing opinions"?
I absolutely think they are different. Measles is back now in the US and puts everyone at risk of physical harm, because people have chosen to not get vaccinated without good reason. I don't think that is remotely comparable to differing opinions on the ethical situation between Israel and Palestine.
I think it would be more fruitful if you spend some time refining your message to distill what you're trying to say. Maybe less is more.
