Why is pseudoscience so appealing to far-left and far-right activists?

>So White people, you can show all the Black people you want on the news getting vaccinated you want. Millions of Black people don’t care. It will not make them trust the medical community

From the perspective of epidemiology, medical statistics, and public health policy is there any empirical evidence that would support the claim that Blacks should be uniquely concerned about the COVID-19 vaccine? This seems like conspiratorial thinking and pseudoscience.

The vaccine is to keep all of us safe. Black. White. Yellow. Purple. It doesn't matter. This is bigger than any one individual or any one race, and by refusing to participate in COVID safety procedures these far-left "antiracist" BLM activists and far-right MAGA supporters are both reaffirming the fact that they don't trust science, data, or evidence, and they don't care about the rest of the country.

Any of the vaccines that reach the market and have FDA approval will have been extensively tested in a number of contexts, and across all racial, economic, social, and gender categories. That's the way medical trials work. The claim that the vaccine poses a unique threat to the black community is both factually wrong, and socially and morally repugnant, since pushing this kind of disinformation on social media threatens to undermine public confidence in the medical and scientific establishment.
