He must have said some really outlandish shit. He has been banned from many of the social media platforms. Many of the linked videos in the Covid thread alone have been removed.

He may be a loon, but... Media Smears Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. For "Conspiracy Theories" Even As Many Come True Hunter Biden's laptop, Pentagon UFO cover-up, and covid lab leak were also dismissed as "conspiracy theories". Michael Shellenberger Yesterday, Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. appeared on a Twitter Spaces panel co-hosted by Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, and venture capitalist David Sacks. He spoke for over two hours on a range of issues, including the war in Ukraine, energy policy, gun control, and the origin of SARS-CoV-2. And Kennedy deplored the corporate takeover of the Democratic Party, excoriated President Biden’s pro-war instincts, decried the domination of US foreign policy by neo-cons and promoted renewable energy. And yet, according to the New York Times and CNN, it was an orgy of right-wing conspiracy theorizing. “Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a scion of one of the country’s most famous Democratic families,” wrote three New York Times reporters, “dived into the full embrace of a host of conservative figures who eagerly promoted his long-shot primary challenge to President Biden….On Monday, he sounded like a candidate far more at ease in the mushrooming Republican presidential contest.” In pre-Trump America, Kennedy, an anti-war, pro-free speech environmentalist and fierce critic of corporate power, would have been universally regarded as a far-left candidate in the mold of Ralph Nader or his current campaign manager, Dennis Kucinich. He once called for the Koch Brothers to be criminally prosecuted. Kennedy believes that the war in Ukraine is being fueled by “the neo-cons in the White House” who want “regime change with the Russians.” In his campaign announcement speech, he described his mission as ending “the corrupt merger of state and corporate power” that is threatening “to impose a new kind of corporate feudalism in our country.” But a dizzying political realignment has scrambled all of the traditional categories and left in its wake just two sides: not left and right, but insider and outsider. And no matter the substance of one’s beliefs, to the media, “outsider” means, by default, “right-wing conspiracy theorist.” On yesterday’s Twitter spaces conversation, the shift was lost on nobody, including Kennedy. “The Democrats slowly became pro-corporate, pro-war, and pro-censorship,” said Kennedy, and “Republicans became anti-censorship, pro-civil liberties, and anti-war. There's been this tremendous realignment.” Kennedy’s rising profile ignited a media backlash yesterday that felt almost orchestrated. Kennedy’s “crackpot claims” and “outlandish views” have won him “favor on the right,” Vanity Fair moaned. “Mr. Kennedy has found another benefactor who seems to enjoy deluging the press with excrement: Elon Musk,” snarled The Independent. “Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Spends an Hour Sucking Up to Elon Musk in Twitter Space,” blared a New Republic headline. Business Insider called the conversation on Twitter “a bizarre Twitter Spaces conversation littered with falsehoods and conspiracy theories” and dismissed Kennedy’s “odd and occasionally incoherent policy positions.” Rolling Stone sneered at his “outlandish and pseudoscientific ideas” and labeled Kennedy a “fringe candidate” with “crank beliefs.” Esquire called him a “raving anti-vaxxer” and lambasted the very idea of having a contested Democratic primary. But none put it as plainly as The Washington Post. “Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tests the conspiratorial appetite of Democrats,” wrote the Post’s Michael Scherer. Kennedy, Scherer alleged, “campaigns on the idea that powerful people have been working in secret to deceive you.” The Washington Post may believe that the public’s distrust of the elite is nothing more than a conspiracy theory. But if the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that powerful people have, indeed, been working in secret to deceive us. Consider how many suspicions that were dismissed as conspiracy theories turned out to be true: Documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden showed that the U.S. government was indeed spying on millions of Americans without a warrant and without their knowledge and that such claims of widespread surveillance were neither paranoid nor conspiracy theories. Obama’s Director of National Intelligence had lied to Congress about NSA surveillance before Snowden revealed the truth. Jeffrey Epstein may have been running a honeypot blackmail operation with the knowledge of the CIA, whose director visited him frequently, according to his private emails. The evidence is today overwhelming that President Joe Biden’s son and brother sold access to Joe Biden, when he was Vice President, to foreign investors, including Chinese with close relationships to military intelligence. The Biden administration and media elites have aggressively pushed for bans and restrictions on natural gas stoves while claiming that those who claimed they were pushing for such bans and restrictions were spreading conspiracy theories. The U.S. really did manage bio-labs in Ukraine, despite propaganda from NPR and others dismissing this reality as a conspiracy theory. The Pentagon had indeed been covering up evidence of UFOs for decades. Emails show former NAID director Anthony Fauci and NIH Director Francis Collins conspired to spread the lie that the Covid lab leak hypothesis had been debunked. In truth, there is a long history of lab leaks in the US and around the world, and scientists had hotly debated whether coronavirus research should occur given the high risk of a leak. The New York Times wrote that “American intelligence agencies do not believe there is any evidence indicating that” COVID-19 was created as part of a bioweapons program. But Fauci’s NIH funding for gain-of-function research may indeed have originated as a biodefense effort. https://public.substack.com/p/...rue&utm_medium=email "Some things are apparent.

RFK still has the name going for him. His spasmodic dysphonia is a hindrance as well as some his strange ideas. He looks like a Rhodes scholar next to JB. He was definitely a casualty of the 60s generation. | |||

Many by others have come true or are starting to gain traction, but not that many of his have come true. He's a left wing loon and if it wasn't for his name, nobody would have heard of him. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

It’s a legitimate vocal disorder, but it makes him very difficult to listen to. Not great for a politician. | |||

I heard him speak on a show on SirusXM. The host asked him if he would be in favor of banning so called "assault rifles" such as the AR-15. His answer surprised me. He said in his enviromental law practice he represents a lot of rural people who own firearms such as the AR-15. He said there are plenty of legitimate reasons to own "assualt rifles" and he would not support banning them. I was honestly surprised by his answer. Not what I expected. | |||

RFK, Jr. makes a climate speech in Vermont -- and I was there By John Klar The 2023 summer solstice was marked in the Green Mountains of Vermont by a somewhat incongruous visit by Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Addressing an audience of some 200 enthusiastic supporters on June 21 in Burlington, Mr. Kennedy’s subject for the evening centered on industrial pollution and his plans to improve energy efficiency through free markets. But Vermont’s hills did not reverberate with approving liberal cheers for these sensible policy proposals: nary a Democrat was in attendance. Bernie Sanders did not introduce the fast-rising Dem hopeful from Camelot; Peter Welch did not extend a red carpet. The event that platformed Kennedy was organized and hosted by the rather libertarian-leaning Ethan Allen Institute, an educational think tank focusing on free markets, individual liberty, and constitutional integrity. Kennedy’s unconventional 2024 presidential campaign thus found a Vermont welcome in an unexpected forum. Ads by topple View More The Ethan Allen Institute has maintained its non-partisan posture throughout three decades of policy analysis and research. A recent EAI event featured famed columnist George F. Will, and was largely attended by conservatives. A different cross-section of Vermonters gathered for RFK’s visit, hinting at the possibility of a growing alliance of populist support for an authentic maverick. Speaking energetically in the low-ceilinged event room, Mr. Kennedy engaged the smilingly attentive crowd with a history of his legal battles against large industrial polluters challenging PCBs that tainted the Hudson River, and coal-burning plants that polluted the country with mercury. Mr. Kennedy’s passion and confident optimism held the room even for those who might disagree: there was no doubting the intensity of his sincerity. Tellingly, RFK, Jr. did not pontificate about greenhouse gases, or condemn Republicans for climate change. He instead focused on the nonpartisan consensus that toxic chemicals are destroying the ecosystem, and the free market forces that must be harnessed to compel polluters to internalize the true environmental costs of their products. Kennedy made an accurate case that protecting environmental resources can be accomplished without sacrificing economic growth. The standing ovation that followed suggested his closing argument hit home. The salient appeal of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is that he truly appeals to an American political middle. He calls out the woke totalitarianism that has infested culture and government, ensuring he is anathema to the Far Left. Yet he adheres to traditional liberal positions such as renewable energy manufacturing, and appeals to conservatives disenchanted with Donald Trump (and his infamous tweets!). And juxtaposed with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, Kennedy highlights the corrupt incompetence of the bumbling incumbents. Kennedy is making the podcast rounds to outflank the efforts of MSM to deplatform and cancel him, and he is winning that battle. Demonstrating himself to be an artful, passionate and eminently qualified candidate, his visit to Vermont portends a riveting 2024 election season for Americans. Traveling to deep-Blue Green Mountain country, hosted by libertarians, discussing climate in ways that woo even conservatives: that’s an odd duck in any pond. Democrats are deer-in-Vermont-headlights dumbfounded about how to silence this guy from exposing their perfidy. Efforts to slander him over his vaccine record invite platforms to ….discuss vaccines—not at all what Biden and Democrats wish to do, as recent exchanges between Joe Rogan and Dr. Peter Hotez demonstrate. Fact is, Kennedy is a hard man for Dems to discredit. No Chappaquiddick; no crotch-grabbing videos; decades of virtuous environmental battles; he wears the Kennedy family martyr mantle—John F. Kennedy remains an American icon even among conservatives. Efforts by liberal pundits to discredit Kennedy are circus-like, even laughable. The corrupt Left has no credibility trying to blemish a traditional Democrat. And, their usual playbook is bereft of options—they can’t simply call him a racist or homophobe, as they do with conservatives. The eclectic Vermont crowd at Wednesday’s Ethan Allen Institute dinner reflects a centrist mass of awakening voters, fed up with betrayals by the absentee Dem elites; eager for a moderate with brains and mettle; rebelling against extremist agitation on both the far left and right. RFK, Jr. has a low bar to clear in competence and integrity, to rally Americans from all walks of life like a snowball gathering tonnage as it crashes down a Vermont mountainside in January. That’s some political climate change that everyone can believe in.

The only ones going to vote for him, should it come to that, a) are likely over the age of 50 b) believe anything Kennedy is good with a constant loop of a bygone era playing in their heads , c) have had enough of Biden but, will never vote Republican Meanwhile, BLM, the Squad and all the other Far Lefties that have taken over the Democrat party, have indoctrinated anyone listening that anything pre-1964 is bad, and all white men are worse. | |||

If you have spotify it is worth listening to his episode on Joe Rogan’s podcast JRE Episode #1999 - RFK Jr. His point about vaccines when not taken out of context (or just sound bites) don’t seem all that crazy. Less about vaccines themselves and more about dishonesty with pharmaceutical companies only concerned with profit and actual safety concerns being ignored. Would he be a good president? No idea, but at least he seems to come off as having his heart in the right place over the normal narcissistic grifters we typically see. | |||

If one has access to it, another excellent interview w/ Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. was done by Tucker Carlson. It aired on Tucker Carlson Today 11/15/21 on Fox Nation. If people take the time to listen to him they'll inevitably come to the conclusion that he's NOT the 'Anti-Vaxxer' Loon/Conspiracy Theorist the media makes him out to be, which is unfortunately parroted by many that have never 'really' listened to him. The interview is 52 minutes long, and it's definitely worth your time to listen. Note: I turned on the closed captioning ten minutes into the interview as I got tired of rewinding because I couldn't understand all of what RFK, Jr. was saying. He has a condition called Spasmodic Dysphonia (also known as Laryngeal Dystonia), which is a neurologic disorder that affects the voice and speech. In his case, makes it very challenging to understand him at times, especially if the discussion contains any technical/scientific terminology. Turning on the closed captioning allowed me to seamlessly follow what was an extremely enlightening interview, and I'm very glad I did. ____________________________________________________________ If Some is Good, and More is Better.....then Too Much, is Just Enough !!

I’m certainly not a Democrat. I’m certainly not hoping for an RFK Jr. presidency, but…those of you repeating “known anti-vaxxer!” are just echoing the DNC and MSM smear campaign, because both fear him for not kowtowing to the Party line. A few days ago I recommended listening to Rogan’s podcast with RFK Jr. See if you walk away continuing to call him “anti-vaxxer.” Briefly, as pointed out, he was a environmental lawyer, who worked on family-owned commercial fishing boats and went after those industries killing the fisheries, impacting fishermen he knew personally. He had no interest in vaccines, but a group of women with autistic kids began showing up at every appearance he made. Finally he began to look at the evidence of a dramatic increase in autism and onset of autism with kids 2 years old or more, following the vaccinations received at that age. There’s a whole lot more to the story, hence the reason you should listen and make your own determination, but it’s provable that mercury and aluminum became a component of many vaccines and there is a correlation with the legislation that provided immunity to the pharmaceutical companies. I see that cyanide posted about the JRE podcast above. ETA: It seems to me that he is not so much an “anti-vaxxer,” as someone who has uncovered evidence of an incestuous relationship involving government, pharma, a certain billionaire, and a very influential physician. _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

If you don't mind, tell our Sigforum members some of the loony things RJK Jr. said at Hillsdale College. Were his words 1960s loony or 2023 loony? To those that want to smear him, please back it up with some credible quotes, links or videos. "Total Loon" is not good enough. In the video I posted, I can't find a single thing he said that I disagree with. I'll be the first to admit I'm no expert on RFK Jr.. so enlighten me. I'm 100% open minded.

I'm not voting for him, but I don't think he's a loon at all. 99% of what the media has reported on him is totally taken out of context. They want to smear him because he isn't part of their club and he goes against their bullshit narrative. Proverbs 28:1 | |||

Are you being tongue-in-cheek? I just watched the entire video. Hell, I might just vote for him after watching that! I was excited by the end of it. I agree with everything he said and believe it to be 100% accurate. I saw it was posted in October 2020. It's almost prophetic because everything he talked about has come to pass. The Democrat establishment and media will never allow him to win. He wants the truth, civil liberty and freedom of speech which is what they absolutely detest. Proverbs 28:1 | |||
