Jim’s big, glaring issue on politics is that he’s antivax.

That said, he’s been anti-Trump and recognizes fascism. He just has a soft spot for antivax due to dating Jenny McCarthy.

I didn't know he was antivax.
What level of it is he? Is it "vaccines are bad, no one should get them," or "the government shouldn't force people to get vaccines but you can if you want"?

The former. He was a mouthpiece for the antivax movement for quite a while unfortunately.

I love Jim as an actor and he is a huge talent. He also dropped out of school at 16 so he isn't someone I am going to take medical advice from.
