There is a general trend:

People who don't like X, and don't do or use X, will, when they notice that X relates to undesirable trait Y, presume that X causes Y.

Though this trend might be ameliorated through education, cultural shifts, and yelling at people on Substack, actually curing in such a way is impossible, not least of all because this trend is itself an X relating to a Y, which, like most Y, has nonzero heritability.
