Vaccines are the laziest, lowest effort medicine we have. There is no medical treatment that is more effective for so little actual work on the part of the patient. Which is exactly the kind of medicine we need to have the greatest impact on the population base.
People like RFK don’t get it. Also, has anyone seen a fucking microchip in a syringe… ever?
I think it’s a large variation of a syringe needle that chips our pets, but aside from that monstrously large setup that isn’t even used on humans, no.
Closest thing I can think of is the capsule sized camera that can be swallowed to collect data as it travels through that long tube that connect mouth to anus. Even then, I’ve never seen that setup used on anyone.
Yeah, that’s what I mean. You can feel the microchip under the skin with the real ones. But we’re shown a clear liquid going in. Where are the 'chips?
Wait so he is pro psychedelics?
Huh, it would be really weird if the US legalized acid.
If maga starts doing acid to own the libs maybe they would finally start questioning things.
I know I’m wrong, but one can hope can’t they?
Yeah this is actually really hopeful in a fucked up way. I really hope they legalize psychedelics. They are an extremely effective way to get people to stop voting republican. Worked for me. It woke something up in me that made me realize how selfish and self-serving that entire party is. I’m the only one in my family who no longer votes republican, and also the only one who has tried psychedelics. I think that says a lot.
Yeah it’s the FDA keeping people from exercising.
What he’s missing is that people who want raw milk are already finding ways to get it. And people who understand the safety issues won’t buy it.
There might be some real self selection and culling of the right wing heard about to happen. Maybe this is for the greater good after all?
127TB of data. That’s almost exactly 20 LTO-6 tapes. Good for 30 years when you’ll need to transfer them to something better.
It’ll cost you less than $300 and it’ll all fit into a shoebox.
Become an archivist. The future depends on it.
“Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway”
Honestly, Stem Cells becoming more available is cool. I don’t expect his christian overlords to allow it, but it’s a cool thought.
I just hope none of his other snake oils end up in products for the general population. If it just killed off willing idiots then womp womp, they get what they voted for, but public health risks are rarely so discriminatory.
Yes, make psychedelics legal!
Day of the living brain dead.
Damn that FDA and their suppression of…*checks list…sunshine?
Was the solar eclipse an inside job?!?
When was the last time your big FDA doctor told you to sun your butthole? Why would they hide that from you?
Because your dermatologist isn’t used to checking for skin cancer where the sun don’t shine.
Big FDA not training them on the butthole
It’s quite likely a belief that sunscreen lotion is a bad thing that harms people. Found that one out from an old high school crush from FL. She looks like leather now.
I think it’s like the FDA having just reasonable guidelines on how much UV you can safely be exposed to. RFKJR prolly thinks sun lotion prevents all the healthiness from the sun and crystallises your amygdala or something along those lines.
FDA agent mr snrub
They hate sunscreen because skin cancer good apparently
“You know what they call alternative medicine that works? Medicine.”
Unexpected Tim Minchin!
Don’t worry, everyone! While we will ignore science and make sure you don’t have vaccines, you’ll have shrooms, rock crystals, and essential oils when bird flu finally hits.
Or I eat a dead bat and become patient zero for Ebola. It’s all good! - RFK Jr
I’m surprised, with all the whale carcasses and roadkill bears, RFK Jr hasn’t already become patient zero for a pandemic.
The Democrats should create a shadow presidential cabinet where the health secretary gives science backed advice for people who are looking for it. It would be better to have a centralised political source rather than having everyone independently search Healthline

In all that crazy, there’s, shockingly, two good points:
-
Psychedelics. There’s at least anecdotal evidence they’re good for treating certain traumas / PTSD. So, yeah, we should be looking into their medicinal applications. But is it the FDA or the DEA that’s cockblocking those?
-
Stem cells. Abso-fucking-lutely yes. But wasn’t it the “pro life” people holding that up?
We can simply harvest stem cells from the lowest status minorities in the deportation camps
Stem cells.
He’s not talking about the stem cells that can cure a select few diseases.
He’s talking about an alternative medicine thing which is basically sticking cells from your right arm into your left arm and calling it “stem cell therapy” then claiming it can cure hundreds of diseases.
There is zero evidence (or RCTs) showing his version of “stem cells” works.
The FDA bases approval on two highly successful phase 3 RCTs of a specific drug for a specific condition. You can read more about that process here
Neither psychedelics not RFK’s version of stem cell therapy has that yet.
Thanks for clarifying. I took the mention of stem cells in the wall of crazy tweet to be the more credible form of stem cell therapy. Considering I was fully aware of who was making the statement, the fault is mine.
I suspect my insurance company will soon cover shoving goat testicles into my scrotum. I’ll be so virile!
Don’t expect consistency from this administration.
I mean psychedelics really shouldn’t be suppressed as much as they want, but with him gutting all actual medical science, they’re not gonna be helping much.
They have tons of potential and power, but binging mushrooms for three days and dancing in circles isn’t probably the only way we can utilise them. (I’m not saying it’s a bad one, just not necessarily suited for everyone.)
And actually if psychedelics gets lumped into his shit it might just be a step back for research on psychedelics when eventually this craziness of his blows up in his face. Hopefully before he implements any of it. Or even gets into office.
For point one, there was a big study about it but it turned out the study co-ordinators were intimidating people into saying that it helped them when it didn’t. This is why psychedelics are still banned because the “scientists” that were trying to prove that they were safe fucked up in the dumbest possible way.
Clean foods is also a good thing
My concern is that his definition of clean food is incompatible with a sane definition of clean food.
We’re talking about a man who got mercury poisoning from eating unsafe fish, and ate meat that caused a worm to eat part of his brain. His standards for food safety are clearly not the same as mine.
If he were to assert that pasteurizing milk causes nearsightedness and lazy eye, I wouldn’t not be surprised.
Right, but we already have that so I left it off the list. Not that there aren’t things that slip through, but that’s mostly a matter of enforcement and ensuring compliance (both things I do not expect him to take seriously).
We don’t really. The EU refuses to import things like US chicken because of our food processes.
EU food standards are leagues past ours, but the core reason is regulating some of our worst factory farm processes. More regulation will absolutely not happen for 4 years, so no real progress will be made.
That “worst factory farm process” is cleaning chicken with cleaning agents generally regarded as safe.
https://sgp.fas.org/crs/misc/R40199.pdf
The EU food safety agencies have issued opinions that it’s fine, and the EU would resume importing US poultry if it weren’t for that. The same agents are allowed to be used on other imported and domestically produced foods.
The conditions in our typical poultry facility are perfectly in line with theirs, we just allow an additional rinse that they don’t.Our food supply is nowhere near as gross as people seem convinced.
The biggest threat to the cleanliness of our food supply is actually people like RFK who view the food safety apparatus as the enemy.I really don’t see the incoming administration blocking washing poultry with vinegar or a dilute bleach solution and compensating with increased staffing for food inspection agents. More likely they approve requests by the meat industry to be able to do their own inspection and reduce independent verification in the name of “efficiency”.
2: Yes, buttt there are some issues, but afaik do not throw the baby out with the bath water -> https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/02/29/the-stem-cell-scandal
- Yes.
- Also, yes.

Fucking FDA and big Pharma having a stranglehold on vitamins, exercise and su-…and …sunshine…
Don’t forget the FDA’s aggressive suppression of exercise.
Look people. This is life now. We could rise up and put all these motherfuckers out of our misery, but nobody is willing to handle business
The American public is too servile, and too busy tearing each other down, to do that.

Evangelicals: I think you’re getting ahead of yourself
I think we should take full advantage of this opportunity. Ok, here we go.
“Robert F Kennedy Jr Is a 👶🗡️BABY MURDERER👶🗡️!!! He thinks people should inject 💉themselves with stem cells which is just a Demoncrat code name for little bits of 💀unborn baby💀! 👏President Trump 👏 is appointing a pro-choice Demoncrat 👹 BABY MURDERER to head up the FDA !! Pass it on and tell PRESIDENT Trump to not appoint ☠️BABY MURDER RFK JR ☠️ to run the FDA.”
How am I doing so far?
Edit: Facebookified it a bit.
Louder and without all that pesky grammar. More clap emojis and unhinged emotional language.
Ask and you shall receive.
Art imitates life.
Ah yes, vitamins, the secret cure-all that has been kept from us all those years without brainworms at the helm.
