Why shouldn't I vote for RFK?

Windy isn’t serious about anything. He’s as flakey as a little crusty white dog.

If he’s too far off base then I imagine he’ll be the kind of person that says “I’m just starting a conversation”

To answer the question: RFK is a conspiracy theorist. Is that how far the US has sunk? If so I wish Canada had better neighbours.

Windy is the Tucker Carlson of the LR.

No he’s just bi-curious, running through all the remedial options in “why shouldn’t I vote for X” threads is just his way of coming out.

Eventually it will be something along the lines of “I hate Biden but had to vote for him, the other candidates were simply all ubstreperous ignorami” in reply to others he will also add “you sir/madam are an idiot”

He will vote Biden…this is just his own path to self discovery.

I’ll probably throw my vote away on the least offensive third party if the GOP can’t put up someone I like

Still holding out hope that Paul Gosar will enter the race?

That’s like asking why I shouldn’t vote for Trump… If you have to ask, I won’t be able to convince you.

yup… hehe… poor Windy ain’t the swiftest . You know when little 2 and 3 yrolds ask their daddies why they can’t play with guns…well Windy was a teenager and still asking :slight_smile:

I live in Chicago I know guns aren’t toys

Ok sure (wink, wink)

from a fiscal perspective Biden is the second best US president over the past 50 years and you unfortunately don’t have Clinton as an option this time.

I’ll transfer my points/discussion from the other thread to here:

Overall, I agree with a lot of his broad stances, and I would think most in here would too.

His vaccine claims are… well, a little out there, but overall I agree with his overarching view on big pharma, and the contamination of regulatory bodies by corporations in general.

He’s being made out to be a loon but when you have two other loons running is he really that far out in left field? I’d take him over trump in a heartbeat.

It is so easy to agree with broad stances, that is meaningless. Like “I want America to be better.” Of course that is good.

Basically you are like, “sure this nut job thinks the that the moon landing is fake and is being used by reptilians in the deep state to enslave us, but I agree that there should be more transparency in how the government works and what it does.”

Since RFK jr wants to throw the baby out with the bathwater, you seem to think that is not crazy since the bath water needs to be changed. Just change the bathwater!

I’m asking this out of ignorance, because I really don’t know much about the guy other than what I’ve heard on roughly 5 hours of his podcasts, where he is undoubtedly in full on campaign mode and making himself out in the best, most reasonable light possible:

What are his most extreme views that I should be worried about?

I’ll copy this to this thread too.

To start.

A litany of vaccine nonsense, if some dumbass has said it, he repeated it. COVID vaccine deadliest ever. Vaccine passport is like living in Nazi Germany. Chemicals in water cause gender dysphoria. Antidepressants behind school shootings. CIA killed JFK. Sirhan Sirhan didn’t kill his dad. COVID is a bioweapon. 5G and wi-fi control our minds. AIDS not caused by HIV. Michael Skakil not guilty of murder.

If you support him in any way you are a fucking moron.

I was vaguely aware of his mercury in vaccines stuff. He seems a bit out there on other stuff

Uranus is a bit out there, he’s way beyond that. He’s a prototype nepo baby with delusions of grandeur.

I’d take him over trump in a heartbeat.

That’s a really, really, really low bar.

True, but the bar is currently set at a guy who wanted to pour bleach in to our lungs or a guy who is so old he needs an aide to wipe his own drool from his chin.

Has windy decided that he shouldn’t vote for RFK yet?

Wi-Fi causes cancer and “leaky brain,” RFK told podcaster Joe Rogan last month. Antidepressants are to blame for school shootings, he mused during an appearance with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. Chemicals in the water supply could turn children transgender, he told right-wing Canadian psychologist and podcaster Jordan Peterson, echoing a false assertion made by serial fabulist Alex Jones. AIDS may not be caused by HIV, he has suggested multiple times.

He also appears to basically be a Russian apologist when it comes to the Ukraine war.

Windy will appreciate that RFK surrounds himself with the best people

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. press dinner devolves into ‘screaming and polemic farting’: NY Post | Fox News

Reportedly undeterred, Dechert “continued to scream wildly about the climate change ‘scam’ while Haden-Guest peppered him with verbal volleys from across the table, calling him variously ‘f—ing insane’ and ‘insignificant.’”

Dechert then proceeded to “let rip a loud, prolonged fart” while yelling, “I’m farting!”

This enough for you? How dissociated from reality can he get?

Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian youth have already died because America’s foreign policy establishment manipulated their country into war to fulfill vain + futile geopolitical fantasy. Now, rather than acknowledge failure, Biden admin prepares to sacrifice American lives too.

I like his policies…

Another gem:

“COVID-19. There is an argument that it is ethnically targeted. COVID-19 attacks certain races disproportionately. COVID-19 is targeted to attack Caucasians and black people. The people who are most immune are Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese.”

Not sure if serious.

He’s a conspiracy theorist. I guess if that’s not a problem for you then the reason you shouldn’t vote for him will be that Trump has your vote already.

What theories does he promote?

You’re not entirely as dumb as you like to sometimes play, so let’s skip the foreplay.

You toddle off and read a bit about RFK Jnr, and then you can come back here and explain why you find some of the - ahem - less mainstream positions he has pushed rationale, reasonable and persuasive.

I mean a good chunk of the Democratic Party I don’t think are rationale reasonable or persuasive. (Unfortunately the same applies to the GOP of late)

Your boy RFK is today’s GOP

He has been friends with Trump for decades and Trump talks highly of him.
He has been embraced by Laura Ingraham and Sean Hannity.
His super PAC was organized by a Republican firm that worked for Marjorie Taylor Greene, Herschel Walker, and George Santos.
He joined the leading GOP presidential candidates—including Trump—at a Moms for Liberty event
Steve Bannon and Alex Jones promote him as a possible Trump running mate.

I suppose it will be a good measure of the relative whackiness to see if Democrats embrace him the way Republicans have embraced Trump.

The number of people marching in the parade foe him and the cheering he got was about 70% of why I posted the OP. The other 30% was the fact they were in the parade in the first place.

hmm how about because he can’t even shut down an old-man shouting contest and disrespectful public flatulence, just sits there like a stooge

Putin will be quaking in his boots

“I apologize for using my flatulence as a medium of public commentary in your presence.”

3 points for providing a quote that amused me
