The Truth about RFK Jr

[angrysoba]

A surprising number of people seem to be taken in by this charlatan, who speaks out of both sides of his mouth on vaccines.

This is RFK spouting non-stop lies to his followers about vaccines and how they have caused a "Holocaust" and then in some interviews denying that he is an anti-vaxxer. It covers a fair amount of his slippery conman act that some people, unbelievably, fall for.

It's made by a guy on Twitter who goes by the handle, The Real Truther. He's done a yeoman's job of combatting Covid contrarianism in general, but he's been particularly good on vaccines and the idiotic alt meds that contrarians have pushed.

This sort of shtick is easy to do if you just say what you need at the time, and forget what you said more than 10 minutes ago. I don't think he's even got a true position on vaccines. I don't think he has researched the subject or thought it through in any depth. Like using a dead bear-cub as a joke, and strapping a whale-head to the roof of the car. The worm ate the bit of his brain that did "good judgement calls".

Either the worm ate too much or not enough of his brain.

I think in all fairness to the worm, we should remember that he was a dope addict before that. The worm may have been doing cleanup.

Looks like in the surgery they removed the only non-malignant part.

My wife and I got Covid, Flu, and RSV vaccinations a couple of days ago, courtesy of Medicare. I wonder if we'll be able to do that next year.

Are you MAGA, white and not an "illegal" immigrant? Yes? Then you will be fine. You won't need vaccines.

Before you posted this, did you bother to read anything on the other side? I used to think just like you do about people who question vaccine safety, but then I decided I should read at least a few of their sources. There are plenty of medical scientists who support RFK Jr.'s concerns about certain vaccines, but you never hear about them in our Big Pharma-dominated news media. Have you read RFK Jr.'s thoroughly documented short book A Letter to Liberals? Have you read Senator (and Dr.) Rand Paul's book Deception: The Great COVID Cover-Up?

Here are some sources that are available online:

If you read Dick Russell's book The Real RFK Jr., you'll see that he soundly debunks the myth that Kennedy's 2005 Rolling Stone article "Deadly Immunity" was "refuted by scientists." It was not, and has not been.

It's always a good idea, and in keeping with the principles of critical thinking, to read both sides of the story before reaching conclusions about it.

Finally, you should be aware that RFK Jr. has gotten all the standard vaccines except the COVID vaccine, and that his children have done so as well. He is not against vaccines per se; his main point is that vaccines should have to undergo the same safety trials that prescription drugs have to undergo.

Aah, your own anti-vax page. Jolly good.

We have. Conclusion: Usual anti-vax raving nonsense. Being an anti-vaxxer is like seeing someone else choke on food, so they swear off eating for life.

He is not against vaccines per se; his main point is that vaccines should have to undergo the same safety trials that prescription drugs have to undergo.

There are many different types of COVID vaccine, made by different methods and using different modes of operation. They include the standard manufacturing methods used for decades for other vaccines which he has (apparently) taken. So specifically which ones has RFK Jr. not had, pray tell?

There's a cost/benefit analysis to be done on the use of any medicine at any time. When you're in the middle of a pandemic and thousands of people are dying every day from a novel virus, that cost/benefit analysis might produce a different recommendation than when you're the umpteenth person to take a medicine whose possible side effects are well quantified and understood.

Having said that, afaik all the covid vaccines were required to have completed phase 3 clinical trials before being rolled out.

Okay, Mike, which vaccines does RFK Jr think are safe and that he would recommend, and which ones does he think are dangerous and will lead to extremely bad health outcomes?

Does heroine count? RFK recommends it.

Just for the record, mRNA vaccines have had a long development and testing period.

I'm as full of death as a drugstore. I'm thought by some to be quite mercurial. The worm in my brain lulls me to sleep with poetry. I feed it vaccine cocktails.

Wow. Mike actually cited his own blog as a supporting source?

Yeah, this is gonna be great.

President-elect Donald Trump suggested that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., his pick to run Health and Human Services, will investigate supposed links between autism and childhood vaccines, a discredited connection that has eroded trust in the lifesaving inoculations.

“I think somebody has to find out,” Trump said in an exclusive interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker. Welker noted in a back-and-forth that studies have shown childhood vaccines prevent about 4 million deaths worldwide every year, have found no connection between vaccines and autism, and that rises in autism diagnoses are attributable to increased screening and awareness. “If you go back 25 years ago,” Trump claimed, “you had very little autism. Now you have it.”

Thanks Trump cultists. Thanks for setting things back a century or two.

Then give him a job making photocopies or something. Not in charge of public health!

Trump doesn't give a diddley damn about public health. He's too busy being his own Home Shopping Network. This is an actual ad for his crap $200 perfume. What a piece of scum he is.
