Pundits keep pretending that RFK Jr is "anti Big Pharma" but that is just what anti-vaxxers say to make their ideas seem palatable. He constantly promotes Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, both of which are produced by pharma companies.

When you normalize totally deranged ideas that could kill millions as if it's "being tough on big pharma" you do in fact pave the way for millions to die. This is a direct cause and effect relationship.

The pharma business model is definitely a problem but RFK is not an ally in making it any better.
Neither is small pox vaccination, and the way the US is headed people gonna be freaking out soon
He’s not anti pharm he just wants people to use the drugs that have been proven ineffective!
"Sodium & Chlorine separately are poisons. Together, they make the bodily necessary compound known as "salt". Mercury by itself is bad; as part of some compounds, it's safe."

The idea is that if you are too stupid to understand the science behind vaccines, then Elon, RFK Jr and their bros don't care whether you live or die.
He is a liar and conspiracist.

Then they vehemently ignore the reality of the situation.

this is not a hard story to tell, and not telling it is a choice
Don't forget "raving nutjob", too!
Ok, well except for the Zyn packets.
And the steroids.
And the submissive eating of McDonald’s.
Oh yeah, and the heroin.
But besides that, it makes total sense!
The ways they will try to make his atrocities seem reasonable over the next few years will make Stalin & Goebbels uncomfortable.
NPR: He is an environmental lawyer and vaccine skeptic.
Nutraceuticals are what made Alex Jones.
It’s rich people who will kill people trying to prove their brain worm conspiracies are true.
It’s narcissism.
He's anti-government, not anti-pharma.

Early in his career he got attention by doing some worthwhile things, but apparently it wasn't enough, and it died down after a while, anyway. Then he found quackery, and new vistas opened up before him.
A) 'suppressed' because they are quack bullshit (raw milk, chelating compounds) or
B) not remotely 'suppressed'! Every health agency in the country already promotes vitamins and sunshine.
The RFK, Jr department is not going to be helpful.
“Suppressing peptides” what the fuck is he talking about
And yes, I am being sarcastic.
Can't wait to hear the outcry over this.
Yet raw milk is the opposite of clean - as it definitely contains pus and I also read recently viable H5N1 virus (up to 5 days from production when chilled).
He appears to be deranged in some way or other.
Chelation therapy is OK under certain circumstances. Being afflicted with vaccine paranoia isn't one of them.
I think that’s what he’s talking about
🤮🤮
And he planned on eating that bear cub, too. Bears carry trichinosis.
Also, pharmaceutical companies can suck AND their vaccines and treatments can work!
I know 2 people that became fitness instructors/health coaches and both were ecstatic at him getting picked.
I believe it's referred to as "kissing the ring" or "licking the boot"

RFK: We should regulate HFCS in school lunches
People: Yeah that's probably a good idea actually
RFK: And make them drink raw milk
Normal People: Wait, no
RFK: And dont let them get vaccines!
Normal People: wtf is wrong with you plz stop
RFK: I killed a Rhino
By blowing RFK off entirely, it invited people to assume that Harris opposed RFK's entire agenda, even the good stuff.
This id all Kamala Harris’ fault
Got it
Idiot
Hell, even your primary care doc can tell you to lose weight, eat healthy, and exercise!
The notion that nobody in the system promotes healthy living is a straight up lie!
If there are normal people who liked RFK, why TF would you not want to explain to them how RFK is crazy in a way that would cause them to shift support to Democrats?
But not about vaccines, that's crazy 😠
But you should exercise like he says!😀
Don't drink raw milk though he's crazy again😠
It's incoherent, and a waste of very limited time & resources
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Just because RFK gets one thing right about maybe reducing unnecessary ingredients in mass produced and processed foods does NOT absolve him of the vastly greater damage he's done promoting quackery and anti-science idiocy.
Every sane person: WTF?!?
Snot Rocket: He's got a point.
130 now i guess
Seriously, I can't believe how many idiots thought that I was somehow defending RFK.
I’m sorry reality is just too hard for you
it's prevalence in soda is largely because of US sugar tariffs,
something that Diet Coke drinking Trump doesn't notice.
(It's also from corn subsidies and big agribusiness, of course.)
Blame Harris because RFK Jr is insane?
No. People who buy what he's selling have handed over their brains and ethics.
No good stuff. None
This is the most insane statement that has ever been made, and these are the same Nazi scum who reviled Michelle Obama for trying to get more vegetables into school lunches.
So, umm, no.
It's usually for things like sexual assault or corruption, but it applies to wanting kids to exercise as well.
And the mere existence of “healthy food” isn’t even a fucking political issue. There’s healthy food! Go eat it!
What these people mean by “healthy food” is dangerous garbage like raw milk.
Lolololol
Stop underestimating the lunacy
It would have been trivially easy for Harris to explain that there was a candidate who supported healthy-food policies but didn’t dump dead bear cubs in parks or cut off animal heads.
She didn’t make that argument.

We don't negotiate with terrorists.
You’re just wildly incorrect on every point there
Also seems weird to pin much on the 25th loser thing she did.
Not to some Johnny come lately Crack-Pot grifter.
I agree there's been too much leaning on climate, which is only part of the issue.
My impression is that she focused on helping small farmers and unions. Getting nutritious food into underserved communities.
😂😂😂
RFK Jr's followers prefer vibes and personal beliefs over facts and evidence.
How would Harris have won their votes?
Second, he was looking for a cabinet position. That man shouldn't be in charge of anything. He was given the key to the world, and he has screwed up in epic fashion. He's a washed up loser.
Truly blowing him off is something designated to female journalists of a certain age.
Totally wrong thinking
That idiot who makes shit up and then decides to believe it doesn’t deserve a public voice and he sure as hell doesn’t deserve power
Kamala was right to blow him off.
there is ZERO logic to embracing the platform of a candidate that almost nobody voted for.
ALL of RFK AND Jill Stein voters combined would only amount to 1% of the popular vote and not enough for Harris to win.

Be specific.
They think it’s a sweet sweet carcinogenic bacon bomb cooked in a gallon of tallow guzzled down with raw milk and endangered Whale juice
People eat what tastes good. RFK Jr. can't do a thing about that.
Next braindead delusion please
Like… how would you even unpack a conversation with someone who says “I voted for Trump because I want healthy food”? What does that even mean? What do they believe it means?
I don't care if YOU think those people are silly. Part of campaigning is winning voters over.
A.) Shuddered
B.) Pegged it as a bullshit frankenword
Then I'd point out the similar cost and that it was made by "big pharma".
They are profoundly stupid people.

large biz likes stability and big pharma likes, I think lots of regulation, cause it keeps prices high and competitors down
@michaelhobbes.bsky.social
God, so embarrassing.
I strongly suspect the modern republican ruling class is heavily dominated by sociopaths.
He has no actual principles, not even those won by suffering.

Perhaps part of their Social Security trimming.
His anti-vax stance helps Big Pharma. Vaccines = one-time prevention. No vaccine = get sick = need ongoing medications.
Pharma profits more from treating diseases than preventing them. He's driving more pharma profits, not less.
