RFK Jr.

This is a really hateful post. I have no problem calling out misinformation. He has no obligation to be a dancing bear for Twitter billionaires. If they want to give hundreds of thousands to charity, they should just give it.

 

Ted Cruz was a skilled debater at Harvard. I think he was in the debate club.

 

Are you equally harsh toward complete idiots like Rogan and RFK and Bannon and all the other idiots who drone on endlessly with lies, ignorance and now encouraging violence? No, you aren't, because you are right there with them.

Meanwhile, below the positions and current projects for Dr. Hotez. What exactly could RFK actually debate him over besides some BS that RFK (and clearly you) make up from your arses and spout off as though it is some kind of actual fact? RFK does not understand the first thing about vaccines. On the other hand, we have a global expert who dedicates his life to treating and protecting the poorest pediatric populations on the globe. There is only 1 "sack of sh!t" in this story, and it certainly is not the guy who helped prevent the deaths of thousands, and is working non-stop to help prevent the illness and death of thousands to millions more.

Plus Bernie wasn't throwing out conspiracy theories and fringe or non-existent studies. There's no debating against crazy.

 

Why does anybody have to debate him? Is this country no longer one of free will?

 

Again, what lies?

 

you are against censorship, except for vaccine companies, Disney’s opinions on LGBTQ laws, Companies/people who are “woke” etc.

 

Are you conflating Fauci with Hotez?

This Hotez guy as far as I know doesn’t work for “the government”. He works as a researcher at a medical school in Houston. I’m assuming the rw is after him because he’s one of the more prominent talking heads.

In either case, science isn’t a “debate” that takes place on a stage. There is no value to anyone in his position sharing a stage with a clown like RFK.

 

Ok, I’m glad you are on the right side of those issues. I assume you will not be supporting DeSantis, who is for all of those things I listed?

 

Was poor and inconsistent communication, not necessarily lies.

They did, at one point. The virus later mutated and that changed.

So exactly who lied about lab leak theory. Among virologists they still think a lab leak is a pretty preposterous scenario, given the available information. No idea what the lie is.

It’s not “the government” lying. People lie. Yes, I know, people sometimes lie. People in government sometimes lie.

But if the facts on the ground change, or available information changes, someone changing their assessment is not a lie.

Also, you not understanding the science behind the issue does not make someone who does a liar.

 

I don’t really get this villification of Biden. He has governed quite competently. He’s been wrong on a couple of issues (stimulus too big, student debt forgiveness) but my biggest beef is he is just too damn old to run again and his VP is weak.

While I didn’t vote the same as you above about half the time, apart from Trump I would characterize your votes as reasonable.

I was

GHWB
didn’t vote
GWB (I was wrong on that one)
Kerry
Obama
Obama
Hillary
Biden

 

Just curious what batshit crazy stuff leftists rolled out in last 7-8 years that DeSantis is undoing.

I’ve never liked DeSantis, but prior to getting too far into Covid I thought maybe some of his rhetoric was gimmickry, but since that point he has gone batshit crazy. I would only support him over Trump and RFKJr because I view neither of those as qualified or mentally stable enough to be president.
