I’m very familiar with the world of academia. To be honest, many of them/us are surprisingly stupid, but for a reason. To get a doctorate in a field is no easy task. Your lack of knowledge in much else is because you spent all you had being knowledgeable in a specific thing.
So even if you think a doctor is a stupid person in general, there is NO EXCUSE for them being stupid in the one thing they spent years becoming an expert in.
So, is this “doctor” actually holding a doctorate in this field? Let me check…
…god, he has the most generic name it’s impossible to know.

I’m non-US and work at a university. Some of the academics I can’t imagine surviving in the real world. The only way I can explain it is they get a PhD and then the Dunning-Kruger effect applies to everything, but they don’t evolve on it. And they’re weirdly incredibly gullable—like, in their 30s and vulnerable to scams and misinformation your grandma would immediately pick up on. You get concerned for what else they may be teaching students because kids fresh out of high school often trust adults and these adults put off an identity of being experts.
You want to say to them, “If it’s not about phylogenetics, don’t listen to a single fucking thing this person says no matter how confident they sound.”
Is Typhoid Mary getting a statue as well?

Fun fact. RFK forced his brother to take cocaine and demerol. His brother would later get addicted, and die of an overdose. Also, he sounds like that from years of heroin abuse.
For what it’s worth on the voice thing, assuming that’s what “he sounds like that” refers to: https://www.npr.org/2025/01/29/nx-s1-5279176/rfk-voice-spasmodic-dysphonia
That’s the result of a rare neurological condition known as spasmodic dysphonia, which has afflicted Kennedy for decades.
If you’ve got any evidence that it was heroin that caused that neurological condition I’m all ears, but we have a pretty reliable source on this one.
He’s been a severe heroin addict for 14 years. It isn’t uncommon for drug addicts to have motor dysfunction (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3966544/). He’s put out himself that it is spasmodic dysphonia, which is a disease in which the cause is not well understood (ironically, it may be associated with measles). Importantly, this information was released when he was running for president. It is probably better to name a ‘disorder’ rather than to say I broke my brain from years for substance abuse.
There’s a behind the bastard podcast that goes into detail about RFK’s life. It’s truly awful.

RFK Jr.: ‘I Was a Heroin Addict for 14 Years’
He said it himself. Lots of sources.
You know the Right is held to a different standard
I find this response comical, given the masterclass of sheer incompetence, corruption, and narcissism of the last 3 months.
Brain worms are difficult to get rid of.
i read that he got hepatitis c from sharing needles and that screwed up his voice
No, that’s fake news
He got hepatitis from all the rapes he’s actually done
Dr. Edwards should lose his medical licence and be banned from working with children forever. How sociopathic do you have to be to be working whilst knowing you are carrying one of the most infectious diseases in existence? This is utterly inexcusable, especially since he is supposedly a qualified doctor and should be well aware of the danger he is putting his patients in.
AFAIK it’s the most known infectious.
Covid, or at least one of the omicron variants is next i think, but one might argue its more since the infection cycle was faster leading to larger numbers, but in terms 1 person infecting X people, it’s Measles.
Measles is more lethal to buy itself, if it causes meningitis or encephalitis, secondarily it suppresses the immune system
Does seem like it would go against the hypocratic oath. That said, I leave that up to the medical board to determine since I am not a doctor. But it should at least be investigated by them.
Dude. WTF is going on in America.
Forty years of Republican brain rot and systemic cutting of education.
If your country has conservatives that look up to the United States, stamp it out now.
And lead paint and leaded fuel everywhere
Honestly seems like y’all could use some development aid…
We dismantled the department of education
NOTHING GOOD
Well you see we recently discovered that russia won the cold war. And now we have to reset the country to 1920 in order for them to get ahead.
Idk. I think both sides actually lost, it just did what is ultimately very predictable and created the perfect conditions for fascism
Send help.
Probably best you don’t send help to the red states. Trump cultists would probably shoot at the people trying to help them like they do with FEMA.

Everything I was assured by my entire friend group “Couldn’t happen outside of my paranoid delusions.”
I don’t have a name to provide (as the “person harmed”) but if you know of anyone that he visited while infected here’s the complaint form: https://public3.tmb.state.tx.us/TMB_SSO_Complaint/default.aspx
Seriously who doesnt think he is a nurgle cultist at this point? This is like text book Nurgle follower.
I would say “extraordinary criminal”.
What a hero. /s

rfk is doing gods work and making the world a better place for the rest of the world.
He has extremely valid points about ultra processed foods. That’s about it
By giving kids measles? You’ve lost your mind.
We don’t care if dumb americans die is what they’re saying. Y’all voted for that shit afterall… poor little mericans in the richest country in the wotld with all the guns, ooohh measles
Did writing that make you feel better?
Well, it gave me a little giggle so yes.
I giggled too as an american. Why not enjoy the end times. People ushered this in through ignorance, arrogance, and inaction. let god sort em out.
Glad my sense of humour isnt entirely lost on you lot, best of luck in the apocalypse :)
Thank you! I’ve been a prepper most of my life so I’m ready for the results. These poor people can’t even acknowledge the horrors they face in the imminent future. It’s kinda cute and fitting. I’m very interested to see who survives in the post law, post walmart america. Maybe we can build a great nation again.
