If only there was something we could use, some sort of medicine that could prevent diseases like measles. I'm sure they would get right on that, if they weren't following Kapo Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller's plan to decrease America's population to 100 million.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What if we, like, intentionally infected people with a weakened version of the virus in order to train their immune systems to fight it? We could just squirt a bit right into their arms with a pointy tipped syringe, and it'd only take a few seconds...
That's ridiculous, that will NEVER work.
You know what's nutritional against measles?
The measles vaccine.
So you admit children are starving?
How is eliminating school lunch programs helping!?
You just know he would backtrack and say something completely different like “parents are abusing their children” in order to rationalize this particular bit of crazy.
This motherfucker might be the most bizarro of them all. Like, I agree with some of the things he says, but most of the time what he says and does is fucking insane. Even the things he says that I agree with, the reason HE came to the conclusion is fucked up half the time.
There's this regular troll on a comment section of a political news site I go to. They tried to dismiss my concerns about RFK by pointing out the few rational arguments he made in the past, mainly about fast food. That should give you a hint to the game their trying to play.
Even a blind squirrel can find a nut.
So do something about it. Like providing nutritious foods for free to those in need.
He just keeps digging himself into a deeper and deeper hole.
You mean the worm, into his brain.
worms, his brain is largely worms now.
I blame the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Hope he catches every single sickness and disease known to man.
Let’s stipulate something before we dive into this post so that there is no misunderstanding: the rise of the anti-vax movement did not begin with Donald Trump’s foray into American politics. It’s been around since well before 2016, slowly but surely gaining momentum among a strange combination of West Coast liberal elites and a certain portion of conservatives.
Okay cool. It hardened and became mainstream during Trump's administration directly because of Trump. If he were actually looking out for our country's national security and the health and safety of our people, he'd have gotten vaccinated for COVID on national TV, instead of in secret and never admitting it.
RFK....Nah! Nah...just fed 4 kids in contact with a measles kid. They all got it. OKay okay, so it's not food!... Let's try washing their hands. Get these out of here, just keep one of them and get another 4 fresh kids please!
