Serious question about the tone here from vaccinated people

Personally I could care less if you vaccinate or not - it is 100% your choice. But if you choose not to vaccinate please do not travel except by car. Nobody else wants/deserves to be infected due to your selfish behavior and ignorance of science. Nor do any countries want to pay for your health care should you become seriously ill.

There are other threads that list the countries that will admit you with or without a pretest, and the quarantine requirements. There are also numerous websites and articles that can easily be found using google.
Aloha! I don't mean to upset anyone with this question but I am genuinely curious why vaccinated people make comments like this. "Nobody else wants/deserves to be infected due to your selfish behavior and ignorance of science."

I know this is an issue that triggers people but I ask without any agenda. If you are vaccinated why are you concerned with somebody else? From the information I have read, vaccinated people are protected to a degree but can also spread it. So I am genuinely curious why people take this kind of stance and tone. These are other human beings you are talking about like they are outcasts. I imagine each person has their own reason for not getting vaccinated. I feel like politics is too heavily involved but I could be wrong.

I am no expert so I can't really speak about this with any authority. I am just curious that if the vaccine works why people that got it are so worried about those that haven't. Also, it is pretty common knowledge that vaccinated people can spread it. Some studies say more than the unvaccinated. I don't know what to believe but I see some pretty harsh treatment of others and it's sad to see.
