OK, read the article, and I’ll go a little off track.
I think the sticking point is American education. When mRNA vaccines came out people where screaming, “It alters your DNA!!” Well. OK. That idea is ignorant on the face of it.
Know what? I have basic, even college level, biology under my belt. Had never heard of mRNA! Imagine not being able to pronounce “deoxyribonucleic acid”. Can you see how these dumbasses conflate the two?
Read the article! It was hard for me to parse. Imagine knowing less biology than your average bear. No wonder these people are easily fooled!
“Meh. Big words, can’t pronounce. Sounds good!”
And to my shame, I didn’t stop to think it all through. But I trust the experts, and I don’t trust these experts.
So, what’s the end game here? Please, stifle the snark. Merely playing on ignorance for votes? Surely there’s more to it than that?
RFK is a bit of an anomaly in the Trump administration. He’s an environmental lawyer who fights against corporations. He’s rich so can’t be bought by pharma lobbying. He is in the administration because Trump “bought” his voters. This position was his price.
I think he actually believes in the public good, but he’s not particularly clever and is easily swayed by pseudo science.
He can see that big phama has made and will make billions out of mRNA technology and is suspicious. Now he has the power to cut spending and that aligns with republican goals.
At some point RFK jr will upset the corporatocracy and Trump will fire him.

*plutocracy.
True. Maybe the recent shift from corporatocracy to plutocracy will keep RFK in power longer than I expect.
