Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services secretary, has a history of extreme rhetoric and conspiracy theories about vaccines.
In previously unreported comments at autism conferences, Kennedy likened vaccination programs to Catholic Church abuse scandals and Nazi death camps and argued for jailing vaccine scientists.
He has falsely claimed vaccines cause autism and accused public health agencies like the CDC of corruption and hiding vaccine dangers.
Critics fear his leadership could dismantle vaccine safety efforts, decrease public trust, and disrupt public health policy.
Even if it happened to be true, obviously it’s not, RFK isn’t attacking the church over their rampant abuse. Definitely speaks volumes.
Wait, so Christians voted not only for a president who clearly isn’t Christian, but also a man from a Catholic family who disowned the church and speaks against them? Don’t get me wrong, I’m perfectly fine with everyone bashing the Catholic Church until they find ways to root out all the evil within, but how did Christians vote for him when they were claiming Trump (the man who stands against all of Jesus’s teachings) was the Christian choice.
Maybe I’m wrong and he didn’t abandon the Catholic Church though, just calls them evil while joining them for mass? Idk
Decades of propaganda have convinced Christians that Republican=Christian, and the last decade of propaganda have convinced them that Trump is a good Christian man anointed by God and all the bad stuff they might hear about him is just Democrat lies. Many, if not most, honestly don’t know the half of Trump’s evils, let alone believe them.
A surprising, completely unexpected flash of lucidity from him.
I guess the little guys up there do get it right sometimes 🪱
From who, care to explain?
From RFK Jr, for criticizing the church, even if it’s just in passing.
I did not expect that from him at all.
So you think he’s still a Catholic or not?
It’s hard to say really.
I want to say “he isn’t one anymore” since publicly saying something bad about the church seems to be a very big no-no, specially for these cult-like public figures, but who knows.
I’d even say he might not believe but might also not switch just because he’s been a believer for so long it’s hard to change.
