How do people think he is some how the guiding light of health? Anyone born into money would be able to survive this as they can afford to get the help they need.
In one of the photos from Sunday, Kennedy is seen fully submerged in the water, with his grandchildren swimming, in spite of an ongoing National Park Service advisory against coming in contact with the water in the Washington, D.C., park “due to high bacteria levels.” The same notice says swimming and wading are not permitted due to the health risks.
…
A microbial source tracking report published in 2022 by the D.C. government said that ambient water monitoring for Rock Creek showed “chronic elevated levels” of E.coli. “Fecal coliform” bacteria stemming from sewage is also deposited into Rock Creek, the Potomac and other tributary waters from combined sewers during storms according to a 2002 report from the D.C. Water and Sewer Authority.
First is name recognition. If you hear things from a name you know you are going to give it more consideration regardless of its insanity.
Second is Jenny McCarthy broke the brains of a lot of American moms, in the 2000s? I think it was going on her massive tour of talk shows saying vaccines cause autism. She was never an expert and the only study ever cited was debunked. Massive TV talk shows put her on to nation wide audiences including Oprah, known for giving us such awesome people as Dr Oz and Dr Phil. Saying she knew her child better and the causes of autism vs what those dorks in science were saying gave some people the idea you could know better than an expert in a field.
Next the internet became what it is… an awful place where you can find a number of people to agree to damn near anything. Yea maybe before there was one mom who was anti vax in your town and everyone thought she was a kook. Now she has friends online that can provide her with wild stories and made up statistics that you cannot counter on the fly. Mommy blogs and now influencers talk about all different ways to keep your baby safe from “big pharma” and their evil vaccines but you should totally buy this $250 a month bone broth, methalyne blue pill that will keep you healthy. Disregard the fact its never actually been tested and we wont tell you where it comes from.
I think anti intellectualism is the final piece to this. No longer do people feel ok saying “I dont know” when presented with hard questions or things they habe no basis in. We have fought against things science has shown us because it doesnt match our beliefs, evolution, or it isnt immediately obvious what it hurting, climate change, or we have never experienced the horrors of some diseases, anti vaccine.
RFK Jr ticks all these. He is a Kennedy and regardless of your political affiliation you know that name. He speaks to the same anti vaccine sentament McCarthy started years ago. Ignore all those deaths in American Samoa that were the cause of him preaching his anti vaccine bs. He is also clearly not an expert so he is not made bias by those evil intellectuals in their ivory towers. He studied this stuff and didnt need to do any of that stupid testing.
Long and short of it, RFK Jr is only the picture of health to those who want him to be. They see the same stuff we all do but it doesnt matter because he says what they want to hear.
Something you missed is that he has the entire “wellness” industry fluffing him up.
There are no YouTube channels with people saying “I got vaccinated and didn’t get sick”, but there’s plenty of people making a livelihood out of demonizing vaccines.
I didn’t know who Jenny McCarthy was when I started watching The Masked Singer. I don’t keep up with a lot of pop culture, so I thought she was probably an actress who’d just been on shows hadn’t seen before. (I didn’t know Robin Thicke or Nicole Scherzinger were either, at first. And I often don’t know who the celebrity contestants are, too.) Then one time a contestant thanked her for her work… and so I wondered and searched online.
Ken Jeong is a comedian, but he was a medical doctor first and he continues to work enough as an MD to keep his credentials. How can stand to sit at the same table as her? Especially when it was COVID and people were literally dying by the millions. (That’s when I first saw the show.) I suppose the money is good enough for him to put aside his medical credentials and Hippocratic oath aside when he’s not actually practising.
Depending on your age its entirely ok to not know McCarthy.
To show my age the reason I know her is she, along with Carmen Electra were popular Playboy models who parlayed that into mainstream appeal. Which is kind of wild to think about now. I have no idea if any other models ever did that as successfully. McCarthy also was a cohost on MTVs game show Singled Out that was hosted by of all people Chris Hardwick.
He works out in jeans and won’t show his legs (my guess is steroid marks in his legs)
You are right, he is on juice, I think he even admitted himself that he is on TRT, which isn’t uncommon for wealthy men his age but yeah.
Still very ironic and inconsistent of him to promote “wellness farms” instead of SSRI’s and Adderall, while being on TRT which has way more side effects.
What I don’t understand is how do people think RFK Jr is some healthy individual?
He ate raw fish and got a brain eating worm from it. He couldnt tell the difference between a goat or a dog.
He cut the head off a whale to show the kids
He found a bear and decided to eat it but later dumped it in central park
He admits to snorting coke off a toilet seat
He likes to collect skulls and penises of various animal, Dahmer did this
He works out in jeans and won’t show his legs (my guess is steroid marks in his legs)

You should add, swimming (and fully submerging) with his grandchildren in raw sewage.
…
Its a combination of things and time.

Sorry this was longer than I expected it to be.
It’s weird how she tends to get a pass on things, but how was she not the Joe Rogan for the daytime TV set?

Same with Trump when all those people make pictures of him as someone with a 12-pack looking like Arnold.

He’s a fucking junky.
Not to mention the insane vocal chord condition he has that makes his voice sound like a fucking ghoul.
We don’t need to mock an actual disability. He has plenty of personal faults to focus on.
