someone told me last night that they are tempted to vote for RFK because they can't stomach voting for biden and feel RFK is good on things like being against pesticides in food, etc. They were like "I don't like that he's anti-vax buuuut"
I was like
you can excuse being anti-vax? We already have one lingering deadly pandemic and it won't be the last. And that one went/continues to go real badly, even with institutions that were not, at least on paper, anti-vax, and were, at the start at least, trying to prevent harm with their limited powers and resources.
Its not like it's going to matter regardless, why vote for someone so deeply flawed?
*are still having a pandemic
good catch, fixed
Yeah, you'd think the easy, non-controversial third party vote would just be Green, right? Someone has to have a dead worm in their skull to vote RFK.
apolitical people I guess don't think that way. They aren't in the news therefore they don't exist. I should have said as much (or brought up PSL) but I was just holding my tongue trying not to hurt feelings in the process of conveying "yikes, I would not vote for rfk". It was a family gathering of sorts so I didn't want to get too spicy and I genuinely do like this person, didn't realize they were quite that into woo about chemicals (also said aluminum is bad for you and some other stuff that I was like "is it though?")
