Yeah, so much of it is just contrarianism. These people think that if they blindly reject everything that comes from an official source that they are substantially different than the people who blindly accept everything that comes from an official source.
Not just different, but better.
Experts have lied repeatedly and trust in them is at an all time low. If it wasn't for the talk of mandates, more people would have got the vaccine. Pushback is a natural consequence of trying to force things.
A completely vague statement - which is almost certainly untrue or a gross misrepresentation of reality - that basically justifies believing whatever you want. I've seen this plenty throughout my life, but it's become especially popular since the start of the pandemic.
Projection. I lie repeatedly so everyone else must also lie repeatedly.
