    “He’s just skeptical of giving kids too many vaccines at once. What’s wrong with questioning the FDA, which gets paid of by drug companies?”

    That’s what I see most commonly

    He’s a moderate Republican running as a Democrat. Absurd. This country keeps sprinting towards the right wing.

    There's nothing moderate about Kennedy, he's a full-blown MAGA far-righter. Which is why he's being laughed out of the Democratic primary, thank God.

    As a foreigner, why isn't he thrown out of the party? It's what we would do.

    There's no mechanism to throw him out of the party. Party membership in the US is completely informal, unlike many other countries. You're basically a member if you say you are and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

    Thank fuckin God. We'd have nothing left if we didn't stand up to the communists currently attempting a takeover

    Gonna assume you're trolling, because when I read mega dumb comments I give people the benefit of the doubt and assume they're purposefully being obtuse. If you're not, define communism

    You need like the marxists leninist maoist definings or an explanation of the modern efforts being put forth by the underlings in the party you are likely to be voting for?

    I'm not going to provide either to you because you have a computer in your hand but I'm sure you can find plenty of examples that fit even your definition of it.

    Did he think no one would find that out or did he just not give a shit? I'm still confused about what the whole point of this campaign is because it doesn't seem to be achieving anything.

    A ton of people will just see the name Kennedy and do it out of reflex. Not that even President Kennedy was a great guy. Had he gotten to serve out his whole term and possibly a second one I think he would be remembered much differently than he is now. Most of his likely scandals never came to fruition because it would be pointless trying to smear a corpse that was no longer in your way.

    But a ton of low information on educated reactionary voters will see Kennedy, as not what your country can do for you etc and pull the lever thinking surely he couldn't be any worse than Biden. All the misinformation they've heard about Biden he's horrible of course right? They would do it in a heartbeat.

    I read stuff like this and initially think "no, people have a vague sense of who these politicians are" and then I remember 2008 when a girl told me John McCain was the protagonist from Die Hard and refused to believe otherwise.

  • The good news is, those morons are largely confined to the Republican party, so it shouldn't affect the outcome of the Democratic primaries at all.

    Which is why I'm increasingly convinced RFK Jr's real reason for doing this is to get his name out there so he can be Trump's VP pick, so the two can claim they're a "bipartisan" "moderate" "unity" ticket. throws up

    There is a very large anti vaxx community among leftists, unfortunately.

    Larger than it should be? Yes. Actually large compared to their presence in the center right liberal politics? Not at all. Large in comparison to the number of antivaxers on the Republican/conservative authoritarian end? Miniscule.
