There are a number of reasons for vaccine-hesitancy and not all of them are politically motivated. Some are historical, for example, testing of drugs by lying to the subjects (most especially black subjects).
A lot of people don't trust the government - any government - and with good reason.
I had covid-19 AND got vaccinated, because I weighed the evidence against my experiences and arrived at my conclusion. It is entirely possible to weigh the same evidence against different experience and reach a different, but legitimate, decision.
Where I have problems is when the unvaccinated insist on mixing with those who are vulnerable for other reasons. Responsible behavior dictates erring on the side of caution.
The idea that someone disagrees with mainstream thought because they are stupid is condescending and wrong.
It is important to remember that shutting up someone who disagrees with me means that the next person to be silenced could be me.
