“RFK Jr on Tylenol and autism: "It is not proof. We're doing the studies to make the proof.”" He said the quiet part out loud!

1. Spoken like a (dishonest) lawyer and politician, not a scientist. Which is what he is.

[Torchlight]

2. Lysenkoism 2.1 nt

[Ping Tung]

3. Do as Trump does. If he doesn't have any facts he just makes some up.

4. Announce the conclusion, and then find the data. That's how the scientific method works

And this asshole is in charge of HHS

[Redleg]

12. LOL. I forgot more about the scientific method than RFK Jr. ever knew

I used to think that the Trump administration's incompetence would spare us from their evil intent but it looks like their incompetence will magnify their evil.

5. RFK: Rotted Fucking Kook

6. "we are doing studies to make the proof."

Try that line on your professors in a PhD program and see how quickly you
get tossed out on your ass.

[Mysterian]

10. Try that line in 9th grade science class

and see how fast you fail.

7. Ideologues through and through. Manufacturing evidence to confirm their own biases.

Manufacturing proof is the same as manufacturing riots in Portland that never happened.

8. Of course!

We'll turn science upside down and conduct studies (ahem) to prove our foregone conclusions.

Upside-down world we're a-living.

RFK, Jr is so brain dead he doesn't appear to realize how ridiculous this sounds. Anecdotally, Cuba doesn't use Tylenol and has no autism. Therefore, Tylenol (acetaminophen) causes autism. With this sort of scientific method, we'd still be living in caves.

The Grand Charlatan speaketh to his fan club of one, equally brain dead.

9. He'll "make the proof" then use that as evidence in court.

He and his son will make millions arguing in court that the U.S. government says that Tylenol caused their clients' autism.

It's a breathtakingly criminal con.

11. RFK Jr is an idiot

13. So... concepts of proof ?

shall we expect those studies in, say, two weeks???

[Clouds Passing]

14. What he meant: we are going to make up the proof.
