It's more like no evidence over empirical evidence.

Anecdotes are often based in fact and reality, they are just not verified with sufficient rigor. What we have with the anti vax position, is wild claims based on layer upon layer of misunderstanding.

It's easy to get people afraid with wild conjecture, but it's really hard to then calm them back down with facts and logic. From what I can see, many topics today are all driven by a fear position and a rational position, where the fears have led to some sort of twisted belief system.

I am uncertain how to combat this, and it's quite frustrating. I have many former logical thinking family members that seem to have jumped off the deep end.

What you describe is that NK has the most precise missiles in the world. Precision is all about reproducibility. They are precise in their ability to never hit a target, always the ocean. While American missiles are very accurate they always hit their target, but they really lack precision because those targets are all over the place
