I'm concerned about how many of the unvaxxed are coming out with ridiculous conspiracies as their justification. Magnets, grafeen, depopulation weapons, people suddenly becoming gay, you name it.
And how they deliberately misunderstand thing like the difference between viral mutation and bacterial antibiotic resistance.
The promotion of ignorance is always something to fear.

I doubt you get an answer. The people that got the vaccine are either in the high-risk group and needed it, or they're too stupid to make their own decisions and got the vaccine because the people out to make billions and paid for the current president told them to get it.

First, I will say that I do not expect everyone to get vaccinated, nor would I mandate it. Second, it seems that you are framing your questions to imply that people that are vaccinated are fearful and/or ignorant, which is kind of a slimy thing to do on a serious subject.
That being said, the ultimate goal is getting through this bloody pandemic, returning to some semblance of normalcy and being free to live life again, while minimizing those negatively affected by the virus. This concern does not stem from a lack of knowledge as you suggest, it is a goal that we should all want to achieve.
A concern I do have is that we are not working together collectively enough to get through this, whether vaccinated or not, and we will be stuck in the authoritarian-esk environment for a protracted amount of time. The global population, vaccinated and unvaccinated have demonstrated that they have stopped taking this seriously, and this proven out by the surge in cases, development of variants, etc.
To summarize, my concern is that we have turned a situation that we should have been able to manage into one that will ensure our continued bondage.
What leads you to believe we will get back to normal if we all get a vaccination?

Its a goal, a desire, something to aim for. I honestly dont know if we will ever return fully to the way things were, but I know this current situation is not sustainable. We either return to some level of past normalcy or we need to have a complete paradigm shift.
Have you given up and accepted that this current environment is our new normal?

Not one reason so far as to why vaccinated people are scared of the unvaccinated. Not one reason to force vaccinations or punish those that choose not to.
