It's really demonstrative of how insidious social media and algorithmically-elevated content have become that this is even a question.
The boomers and wine moms we're all trying to get to see reason are literally having a separate reality constructed for them by the content and corporate social media that they consume.
We have a particular segment of the population, many of them Boomers, that overdosed on the internet and refuse to accept that the internet lies to them, manipulates them, and acts as a conduit for propaganda tailor made for their lack of critical thinking and short sighted ideals. Cable TV (esp news outlets) was the primer for this and continues to act in tandem.
These are largely the same people who told us ‘video games make the kids violent!’ along with many other tropes that have been fed to them so they have zero incentive to see themselves as part and parcel to the problems we face today.
Now, we have an entire generation of new voters that have spent half their lives steeped in this Trumpian bullshit. They too are so lost in the version of reality that is being sold to them online that they don’t even see actual day to day reality for what it is.
Idk how we fix this, aside from something really major happening that unites us against our oppressors, or a multigenerational project akin to educational rehab.
There absolutely no truth to the concept that boomers are anti-vaccine. They have the lowest vaccine hesitancy of any current generation. Many of them had siblings who died from things we now can vaccinate against. They already lived the reality we're rushing back towards today.
This was a movement started by Gen-X and it's has infected every generation since in increasing numbers.
Well first step is taking fox and other propoganda networks off the air. Then it's reinstituting the Fairness Doctrine and applying it to talk radio that is political as well. Then publicly funding journalism and media.
You can't combat disinformation online if the "news" corroborates it.
Most boomers are not antivax though. They saw what polio could do. They saw this shit works.
Yeah. It's rather silly how much genx shit gets blamed on boomers. In some ways genx has been the boomer+ generation. What they lacked in size, they made up in ignorance.
Weren't like half of them not born until after the vaccine was developed?
He also eats undercooked bear meat.
And saws the heads off of dead whales, letting his kids get soaked in whale carcass juice.
I did have the whale decapitation in my reply originally, I decided to focus more on poor health choices, but covering the kids in carcass juice is a great addition.
How is this the first time I've heard about this?! I had to google it because I thought it was a joke.
Kennedy’s daughter recalled the whale incident in a 2012 interview with Town and Country magazine, which recently resurfaced and was shared extensively on social media. Kathleen Kennedy said when she was 6 years old, her dad got word that a dead whale had washed ashore. He got a chainsaw, cut off the whale’s head and strapped it to the roof of their minivan for a five-hour drive home.
“Every time we accelerated on the highway, whale juice would pour into the windows of the car, and it was the rankest thing on the planet,” Kathleen Kennedy recalls. “We all had plastic bags over our heads with mouth holes cut out, and people on the highway were giving us the finger, but that was just normal day-to-day stuff for us.”
He should try Polar bear liver. It's full of vitamin A. !

So do I, don't hate, ok bud?
Rfk jr's brain worm, is that you?
I said I like rare bear steaks, I wouldn't touch the temple of rot that is Robby K's Brain
But that guy also hates blacks and trans people so I think I'll go with his advice!
He really is a character out of the fallout serries, isnt he?
There's two options, so that means it's 50-50 odds, right? Basic statistics.
Actually, since you could listen to doctors, RFK J(oke)R, OR your gut, it’s three options, and this whole thing just turned into the Monty Hall problem.
Didn't Dr. Oz even tell people to get the measles vaccine?
TMI Bobby J
Eats dogs? Did I miss something?
Source? Legitimately want to read about the sewage thing.
On mother's day in 2025 he posted a picture of himself in his never nude jeans splashing in Rock Creek Park - which is famous for a no swimming rule because of sewage outflow.
There are dozens of us!
Oh. So he didn’t say people should swim in untreated sewage water he just swam in a creek that sometimes tests high for bacteria though apparently the particular part he swam in was safe. Typical clickbait.
I mean everyone I know who is native to dc says that creek is not to be fucked with.
But hey at least you found a way to excuse the ridiculous actions of Mr. Toilet Seat Cocaine Sniffer And 15 Year Heroin Addict who is somehow "in charge" of this kakistocracys farce of a health and human services dept.
