So then as head of Health and Human Services, he'll provide the affected communities with better nutrition and medicine? To treat the poor diets and health, right? Right?

"just as it is solely the parents' choice whether to vaccinate their children, it is also their right to choose what to feed them and how much."

[–] RedWeasel@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago

Yeah, poor health like not getting vaccinated, correct?

We should just call it the Kennedy Measles outbreak.

The "RFK is a moron and anti-vaxxers a public health threat" outbreak.

Why can't this asshole die of measles? Probably because he's vaccinated.

Hey, don't say that.

We can't lose hope yet. He could still get lassa fever, or any of the other hemorrhagic fevers for which there is no vaccine yet. They are currently exploding because all resources that tamped them down got fired or cut by orange.

This jackass has had all his vaccines, I guarantee it.

That's just eugenics with a shitty mask on.

Does this mean children eat worse in red states?

If the kids get hungry enough, they'll start doing the agriculture jobs left open by mass deportation.

[–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

You mean the ones worked by young children?

[–] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I mean, considering what I hear about the US with food deserts and stuff, I wouldn't be suprised

Fringe theories are his entire repertoire.

i have this crazy hypothesis that the aliens are in contact with a few powerful people, telling them we need to cull the human race to allow this planet free for colonization, infrastructure and all...that is the only thing i can think of that makes this all make sense

Can we revoke his last name somehow?

All the Kennedy family are corrupt fucks. At least the ones that got into office. Just because they weren't as bad as the Republicans doesn't make them good.

Political dynasties should not exist in a democracy.
