    I’m upvoting you, because you are correct.

    With that said, RFK Jr. is speedrunning the downfall of the USDA and FDA at lightning speeds. There are outbreaks that we haven’t had in decades, and some for centuries.

    People want to know that the people in charge are taking this seriously and prioritizing the health of the community/nation.

    It is incredibly hard to believe that this administration is doing anything of the sort, so that’s why these sort of things get so much attention.

      I agree. What RFK Jr. and the whole federal admin is doing is fucked up, making shit worse, and destroying faith in policies that once protected us (at least somewhat).

      And I’m confused by the general reactions I’m getting like they read “RFK JR. did nothing wrong” or something rather than the actual words I typed.

      We do want more attention to these issues. I am not telling people to tune out or anyone to stop posting about it. My final message was only have some discernment for when the media is trying to make you feel a certain way. We really have to figure out how to actually talk about the issues at hand instead of raging about every single bait post dangled in front of us.
