Congrats Dull. As someone that's been reading contributions from your first pull request, I can say it's well deserved.

Yeah it's deserved, but what's even more deserved is Robert F Kennedy Jr's presidency

Wtf

Intelligence is domain specific. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Did you know the founders of NASA's JPL were sex majick cultists?

Intelligence is domain specific.

I need this on a plaque above my desk phone. It's perfect.

Defend your position

Edit: RFK Jr. was right about the polarization!

Ma'am/sir this is a Wendy's.

Wtf

They are joking lol

Look at some of their other comments. They'll fit right in with the other lemmy devs

I think dessalines and nutomic have terrible beliefs

No I actually want to vote for him

You an anti vaxxer or a conspiracy theorist?

I want a strongly pro-vaccine culture, but whether or not to have vaccines mandated by the government is a tough dilemma for me.

I expect America's overall health to improve and catch up with the rest of the world under RFK Jr. because of his support for vaccine/drug testing that's free from corporate capture and his ambition to mitigate chronic disease.

I can respond to your point about conspiracy theories if you're more specific.

If all of your supporters think vaccines cause diseases, if you're elected you're going to need to satisfy them by acting on those beliefs.

I think, in the abstract, you're right - having any sort of health procedure mandated by the govt is extremely problematic. However hugely communicable diseases are a big caveat to that principle, and we have been doing something about that for a long long time.

Typhoid Mary was forcibly detained because, over and over again, she kept spreading the disease. Several different times, bird flu was halted before it could get too widespread because of govt mandated culls. Smallpox was completely eradicated because of vaccine efforts.

Imagine if in any of those cases people said 'freedom' was primary and prevented coercion for vaccines. The death and injury toll would be much higher by today, including those of the young and the immunocompromised.

Right now my gut reaction is that local governments, but not higher levels of authority, should be able to do what was done to Typhoid Mary, until we have sufficiently convenient and effective ways to be protected from contagious diseases without the cooperation of other people.

But we're all connected. It just takes one city or county that serves as a petri dish, and then one person to get on a plane, and you have a pandemic

At least you seem to fit right in with your political affiliation

Will he be as open minded as his father?

He is so open minded, he believes and repeats every piece of bullshit he can find
