Many #GenX & #Boomer men are Republicans & some are anti-vaxxers, but a few women boomers are largely responsible for spreading #misinformation:

A small group of committed “supersharers,” predominately older R women, were responsible for the vast majority of the #fakenews in the period looked at. They promoted & shared links to vaccine hesitancy & politics-flavored fake news. 2,107 reg. US voters accounted for spreading 80% of it during the 2020 election.
