No, I would not say that. I wanted to present an example that many people can relate to. I suppose that many readers have heard others express concern over vaccines before.
If someone said that „Jews are drinking the blood of Christian babies“, I do not think that I should argue with this person (as outlined in the article—not worth the effort). I believe that this claim is not to be compared with concern over vaccines, even if the latter is not well-founded in evidence.
I would think that if your “common ground” with someone is something 99% of humans agree with and which is absurdly broad anyway, you haven’t really found common ground.
