RFK: "We need to stop trusting the experts... Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy."

RFK Jr: We need to stop trusting the experts... Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy, it's a feature of religion and totalitarianism.

2. Oh, dear lord.

He hasn't a clue why some people are experts.

[Hekate]

3. Says the cult leader

[Cha]

4. RF Jr needs to Get DeWormed.. maybe

that will help his Incessant Idiocy... take his wife with him.. she may have caught something.

8. +1. Stupid POS is evil. He can do the world a favor by jumping off a bridge

[RockRaven]

5. If these people actually disdained expertise as much as they claim to, then why

don't they pick totally random people to fly their airplane they travel in, instead of those boring buzzkill voluminously-trained pilots? Why don't they have their next door neighbor or spouse perform surgery on them instead of going all the way over to that big expensive hospital for it?

Oh, right, because they are fucking liars. When the chips are down, they totally defer to experts.

This is a dumbfuck line of argument, made by dumbfucks, aimed at dumbfucks.

Also, he shit-talks religion and authoritarianism there -- HEY MORON, YOUR SIDE IS THE RELIGIOUS AUTHORITARIANS!

[UTUSN]

6. Note to ahole him: Ur not expert and least to trust

[dalton99a]

7. Avoid trained mechanics, licensed electricians, board-certified surgeons, etc.

For everything you need, be sure to choose people with zero knowledge or training

[AZJonnie]

9. Let's see, every expert says RFK Jr. is completely full of shit and wrong, about everything

But RFK Jr. says "you can't trust the experts, but you can trust me because I am even MORE of an expert than all of the other experts!"

But wait, if we can't trust experts, why should anyone trust RFK Jr, who claims he's the biggest expert ever?

[AZJonnie]

10. I give up ...

[no_hypocrisy]

11. Yet the message of TSF, RFK Jr., and the Cabinet is "Trust us,

we're the experts."

[Hugin]

12. Reminder: Trump got both a flu and COVID booster at his latest trip to Walter Reed. n/t

[Liberal In Texas]

13. Opposite World.

The old "do your own research" idiocy. The "research" isn't the scientific method kind, but what you can find looking at crackpot blogs and memes that refer to each other as proof.

[allegorical oracle]

14. Simply part of dumbing down the citizenry. An ignorant, compliant populace is much

easier to herd around. "Treat 'em like mushrooms -- in the dark and fed with BS."

[ProudMNDemocrat]

15. Bobby Jr. says instead..."TRUST ME INSTEAD!"

Fuck that!

What prestigious Medical School did he go to by chance?

[Vinca]

16. Wise. Trust a guy who has a dead worm in his brain, dines on roadkill and swims in sewage instead.

[Jacson6]

17. I've never wished any one dead, but I have enjoyed reading some obituaries. n/t

[tanyev]

18. But heroin addicts who got a brain worm from eating roadkill are 100% trustworthy! Amirite?

[GoneOffShore]

19. Reposted on BlueSky and Threads with the following words

So the guy who obviously drank lead paint as a child, was a heroin addict, had a brain worm, and has a weird fetish for dead wildlife wants you to believe him about vaccines, acetaminophen, circumcision, and autism.
Alrighty then.
