This is a transparently silly rhetorical technique. The poster obviously is invested in supporting the official story so he cites the most damning information he can think of to discredit RFK Jr. even though his ideas on vaccines have absolutely no relevance to the matters at hand. Obviously if RFK Jr. took a position on, say, gun control, this poster would not be bringing up some strange non sequitor to discredit him.

What I think is really interesting about the RFK Jr. interview is what it reveals about the media's devotion to the Establishment. When RFK Jr. slams the Warren Commission, Rose immediately tries to bring up the second patsies: organized crime. And he fails to ask the obvious follow up questions about the death of RFK. This fear of Rose reminded me of Amy Goodman when John Pilger stated that he was with RFK when he got shot and everyone there knew there more shooters. Amy Goodman stammers and quickly changes the subject. These exchanges are so telling...
