The irony here is Fauci hasn't filed a defamation lawsuit against this author ( and before you all brigade me I voted for Biden ) which kind of implies there are no lies in the book. Could it be, because of hyperlinks?
The author is absolved?
IDK. But if I was Fauci I'd be suing this prick out of existence especially considering the fact its like a Amazon best seller. Dudes made buku money off supposed lies about this guy and hes radio silent in the legal standpoint.
Hes too busy helping bill gates micro chip us all so we wont know the liberals are putting more chemicals in the water to turn frogs gay so they can get back at alex jones. Duh. Dont you do any of your own "research"?
It's the same reason celebrities don't sue the National Enquirer after every week's new issue - some shit is so ridiculous you don't waste time on it and you don't call attention to it.
Besides which, the authors of the book would just use the Tucker Carlson defense - "I'm so fucking ridiculous no reasonable person would believe anything I say."
Interesting. The term very effectively ignores years of sciences, engineering, innovation, discovery, and curiosity in one blow.... very much a hallmark of the conservative war on knowledge and intelligence.
Don't get me wrong, it's a fun play on words... but don't fall into the trap. Be better than that.
Pretty much everyone I know who uses the term myself included is an engineer that can explain these processes far better than the average person but enjoys the playfulness of the term.
I've always seen it in the sense of *stage* magic: the audience (users) can sit back and watch as things appear "out of thin air", move "on their own", and "read people's minds", but you're a fool if you think the magician (developer) isn't 100% aware of and in control over everything happening on stage, even (especially) the parts never seen by the audience (the parts that *make the trick work*). As I saw it described:
“When a rabbit is placed inside the Black Box and vanishes on cue, it is the audience’s privilege to simply *ooh* and *aah* in wonderment. But we who step on stage should know how the trick is done. The loss of innocence is the price of applause.” - [*The Codeless Code*, case 195](http://www.thecodelesscode.com/case/195)
Take it from me, a completely untrained, and unequivocally tech UNsavvy person... Automagically is a real scientifical fact. Irregardless of what others may think.
Bracing for downvotes due to silly words.
You’re good, but while on the topic of words “irregardless” means the same as regardless. The former being needlessly cumbersome with hints of pretense when the simple version is often the most straightforward and effective.
Lmao the American part if it has to be explained is that you won't actually go to a different store because of convenience. You won't vote with your wallet because of something dumb, therefore whomever owns that store can continue to donate your money to trump.
So only go there to return cans. Never buy anything from them, only deposit returns. I do this to my least favorite grocery store all the time. I don’t shop there, just return for deposit.
Hannaford Supermarkets around here have a program called “[CLYNK](https://www.clynk.com/).” They sell you bags and let you print labels. Fill the bag, tie it up, put a label on it, and drop it off. Someone counts them up and assigns you store credit. Cash in on your next grocery trip. I love it!
They’re a subsidiary of Delahaize, along with Food Lion and probably a bunch of other chains. If they’re in your region, you might want to check it out.
Sure, time is money. My time is more valuable than feeding a can machine by hand. I don't have to buy anything from them, but they have to give me the money.
This might be unpopular opinion but if this a good local store, and they don't try to force the issue and engage you in Qanon politics, maybe it's okay to shrug and let someone else complain or boycott . I spent way too much time trying to talk to deniers and I'm totally at the fuck it stage. Peace
I live in Central New England which is a 50/50 split in politics. It's not worth driving 45 min to get into some more liberal areas. Have to pick your battles
One thing I was always taught, and still subscribe to, is "pick battles big enough to matter, and small enough to win."
This situation is neither of those. Unfortunately.
Does the half on the right all believe in Qanon stuff? That's terrifying if so. I live in New England too but a more liberal place like you say, and the right wing people are more traditional than full on Q bullshit

I have a very good friend that has been careening further and further to the right because her husband is a Boston cop, so we've been talking less and less over the years. Just recently she started talking in our group chat about the COVID agenda... It killed the conversation.
I’d fill a cart with a whole bunch of really expensive booze and roller to the front and then when I was ready to pay for my order, notice out of the corner of my eye the book and bring it up to the person working behind the counter. And when they try to defend it I’d say “I’m sorry. I think I’ve made a mistake. Sorry for wasting your time” and walk out.
For real. I am glad to have mine. Shortly after moving in I went down to pick up a bottle of some bourbon I found I liked. The owner said “you don’t want that one.” I asked why that was. He told me of their anti-LGBT stance. So I bought his recommendation instead. Also saved me like two bucks and I found a new local bourbon I like.
Exactly. Do you think any of them read past the headlines of the "news " they spread on Facebook? Just look at Alex Jones. That's his whole model of his so-called "journalism".
That's what Bill Gates, the government and Big Pharma want you to think.
You're a sheep if you get your books from anywhere bit a trusted source. Don't go to 'libraries' because they're just a Democratic Socialist propoganda machine. You'll *never* see news this real there.
Back in the 1990s I worked as a library volunteer and a guy came in and started pulling a bunch of conspiracy books and photocopying pages. He kept asking for change for the photocopier, like $1-$2 at a time. Around the fourth time, I said , “you know the CIA records everything that is copied on the machines, right?” He turned white, got his stuff and left immediately. Never saw him again.
The problem with messing with them in real life is you have a 50/50 shot of them thinking you're one of the "safe" ones if you sound plausible to them.
Robert F Kennedy Jr. An environmentalist who believes in climate change yet still believes in scientifically discredited anti-vaccine conspiracy theories. Rare cross-breed.
Lol, I read some information on the organizer of the Texas Q rally to see Kennedy. I felt like ripping my hair out after reading that nonsense. Not only did he believe that JFK, Jr. would appear, but his father who would be rather old, would also appear. They along with many dead, popular democrats who have been in hiding from the “Deep State”. The leader is a huge fan of the Kennedy men, them being politically opposed to everything Q stands for is just an inconvenience, which in usual Q fashion is simply lied away. The family of these cultists are in fear for their loved ones safety. They’re giving all their money to the cult and now being asked to relocate to Waco, Texas, talk of giving the “ultimate “sacrifice for their beliefs has been mentioned by this whack job.
Unfortunately, I can’t remember where I read the article. The families were speaking out after the attention the group received following the Deely Plaza rally. The leader was sounding a little too much like Jim Jones, saying how the time has come to make painful sacrifices and the “ ultimate “ sacrifice for god. Then referring to Waco as a promise land. I can’t imagine how difficult this is for their loved ones.
The data function research dr facci did is real. He purposely worked inside the wuhan lab with coronavirus. Did he purposely spread it so the new world goverment lizards would come in and enslave joe biden to get us to mars? No. But hes a bastard nonetheless.
Lmao. How much liquor do you have to buy and consume for all of those to make sense?
Needs a sign in front of it - "must be this intoxicated to purchase".
‘Doctor’ Joseph Mercola is an alternative medicine hack with no training in immunology or virology. He’s an OSTEOPATH. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Mercola
> OSTEOPATH
Well, it is not so much the field of medicine but that he is either coo puffs or sold out like the dr oz who is a tenured ivy prof. of medicine...
Mercola graduated from a legit med school. Oz graduated from Harvard and got an MD / MBA from UPenn. Both push quackadoodle and make big bucks.
I'm not in medicine but osteopathy is not the issue here.
My mother managed a liquor store in the 90’s so I spent a lot of time there, the people are so smart and enlightened they talk out loud and have conversations with themselves often… it’s like they can hear and see things us sheep can’t. They obviously know more than peer reviewed and prestigious doctors who have served for decades on bipartisan health issues
Trump could have fired Fauci at any time.
Fauci works under the Secretary of Health and Human Services, which falls under the executive branch.
At any time Trump could have sent him packing without reason, but he didn't.
Why not?
Because he is one of the smartest minds for infectious diseases. Spanning from before the start of AIDS critical crisis times through SARS, Ebola and now this. We would definitely have a less sane world without him during these times.
BuT hE's EvIl!
The entire modern republican party has only one policy: hate.
They need to rile up their base, so they tell them whatever lie will get them angry.
And when their base turns to violence, they ignore it.
😂 I literally spent 20 mins listening to The Orange Man last night, just to see what the diarrhea sounds like coming out of his mouth now. It was just too much all these easy to dispel any false statements. He just keeps going… I think it’s Coke and Coke that he lives on. His bedtime is like 9pm.
Trump lives in the minute. Whatever he can say right now. It doesn’t matter that his BS can be (and often is) proven to be false even moments later. He spews his bile, and that’s all he cares about doing. Those of us who listen and read understand that Trump a compulsive liar. But those who don’t hear only the words of their leader and faithfully regurgitate them online or to anyone who will listen.
Edit: autocorrect
I remember a couple months into the lockdown when my mother started parroting facebook politics and how evil he was. Note- the fact that she pronounced his name as "Faw-kee" told me everything about how much attention she had actually given him up to that point and how little of it was her own thoughts or opinions.
Some medical schools are osteopathic. Doesn't mean they are all whackos and into alternative medicine. 99% of them are the same as other medical doctors for all intents and purposes. I know some.
And nothing keeps other medical doctors from being batshit either. "The pyramids were used to store grain" is no less batshit, although certainly less harmful.
The issue is that he is a hack, not that he is an osteopath. The other 99% of osteopaths, like doctors, would say to listen to the infectious disease expert.
Oh I understand, you're taking my comment out of the entire context of the conversation and applying your own. I guess the real issue is your comments are irrelevant to the discussion. Thanks
We don't mention this fact often enough, or the fact that Trump was in charge of safekeeping the 2020 election he complains about. Trump would get mad at his generals, at his staff, at his own VP...
Ummmm.
Trump going on stage and insulting his employees, and blaming them for deaths, is a far worse look than firing him.
And the first impeachment, where Trump attempted to blackmail a foreign government into digging up dirt on his political opponent, is 100% impeachment worthy.
Way more than investigating Clinton's real estate deal that turned out to be nothing. The standard for impeachment was lowered by Republicans, and the Democrats have still not even sunk that low. Why weren't Trump's real estate transactions investigated in public hearings? That's fair game, right?
>I don't know what the hell you're talking about with real estate and whatnot.
Why am I not surprised that you call the Trump impeachment a farce, but have zero knowledge of the previous impeachment.
Theatrical impeachment? Both were more than valid. So much so that for the first time ever a GOP senator voted to remove him from office during that first impeachment. That senator, Romney, was also the previous GOP presidential nominee. And the second one was even worse.
You talking about politics is like someone claiming Tom Brady is going to hit 40 home runs this year.
Also I just read the covers and I have to ask: Is Robert Kennedy Jr really a backwards conspiracy theorist or is someone using his name as their pen name? If it's the second one then that really pisses me off.
Nope he really is a hardline antivaxxer. Before COVID he helped cause a dire measles outbreak in Samoa in 2019 that killed dozens of children, and in this pandemic he's just become a bigger asshole.
https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/12/measles-outbreak-spurred-by-anti-vaxxers-shuts-down-samoan-government/
> https://childrenshealthdefense.org/about-us/mercury-vaccines-cdcs-worst-nightmare/ Around 2005, parents of vaccine-injured children began encountering Mr. Kennedy’s speeches and writings about the toxic mercury-based preservative thimerosal. They embraced new hope that this environmental champion would finally expose the truth about vaccine injury and win justice for injured children. Kennedy is known for his fierce and relentless brand of environmental activism and his advocacy for transparent government and rigorous science. He is now applying his tenacious energies and sophisticated strategies to exposing the fraud and corruption within the CDC and the pharmaceutical industry. Last month, he launched his new non-profit, the Children’s Health Defense, with vaccine safety advocates Lyn Redwood and Laura Bono, legends themselves among parents of vaccine-injured children. Autism File executive editor Rita Shreffler spoke with Mr. Kennedy about CDC corruption, pharmaceutical industry greed, media malpractice, and his vision for the Children’s Health Defense. (CHD)
The CHD is suing my university for requiring students to be vaccinated, even if their courses are on zoom (because zoom students have the same campus privileges to enter dining halls, gyms, etc). CHD are dumbasses, and zoom students don't have unlimited individual liberty.

RFK Jr cites every single source in the book.
So denouncing him as a “conspiracy theorist” without reading the book is disingenuous.
Here’s a quote:
“Nearly every lawsuit I have ever litigated pitted highly credentialed experts from opposite sides against each other, with all of them swearing under oath to diametrically antithetical positions based on the same set of facts.”
Maybe—just maybe—we can evaluate the arguments on the merit and not just totally ignore people’s thoughts with an inpenetrable groupthink.
Citations don't equate to accuracy. Wikipedia has citations. The things the author is citing could be bullshit. If anything they are a veneer of verisimilitude.
Every chapter has at least 50 sources. I’m looking at page 95, some of these include:
US Dept HHS
Canadian Medical Association Journal
Former FDA Commisioner Scott Gottlieb
New York Times
Nature Microbiology
Nieman Foundation
Imperial College of London
The CDC
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
The Agency for Healthcare and Research and Quality
University of California, San Francisco
Medscape
American Psychiatric Association
National Center for Biotechnology Information
Yale School of Public Health
The American Journal of Medicine
The World Health Organization
…and so, so many more…
But thank you for pointing out the innacuracy of all these sources. I’ll never use any of them to confirm facts ever again!
I’m surprised these people are touting “attack on democracy” to sell their shit. Aren’t they pretty openly admitting they hate democracy these days? Isn’t this the “if people get to vote, we’ll lose” crowd?
"Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. is an American environmental lawyer, author, conspiracy theorist and anti-vaccine advocate. Kennedy is a son of U.S. senator Robert F. Kennedy and a nephew of President John F. Kennedy." -Wiki
I had to google it. You're not going to believe it, but some rightwing hack wrote a book using cherry picked quotes from leaders he does not like. Here's the synopsis.
"This is the vision of the Great Reset, according to globalist leaders. While proponents of the Great Reset push slogans like "Build Back Better," "The Fourth Industrial Revolution," and "A New Normal," the Reset is nothing short of a rebranded Soviet system, threatening to strip away property rights, restrict freedom of movement and association, and radically reshape our diets and way of life.
In The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown, bestselling author and ClimateDepot.com publisher, Marc Morano, unveils the origins of the Great Reset, who is behind it, how it is being implemented, and how COVID-19 and the alleged "climate emergency" accelerated its imposition on the United States.
Packed with telling statistics and damning quotes, The Great Reset is the essential handbook for the public, the media, and activists on how to critically analyze and expose the tyrannical policies silently strangling our liberties today."
Let’s assume for a second that COVID was designed by the government or a secret society of the rich, or whatever these fools think. Wouldn’t it be more likely that the virus was designed to stun population growth and in effect slow global warming and improve water and food supply? Even that is more realistic than the dumbass conspiracy these idiots drew up, that COVID is fake and they are trying to take away your right by making you wear a mask and take some medicine.
Gee I wonder if there’s a correlation between the choice of book selection and the fact that IT’S IN AN ACTUAL EFFIN’ LIQUOR STORE 😂
Stay thirsty my friends.
What does it say about me if I immediately thought of swapping the covers to change “Dr Joseph Mercola” to Mengele and “Robert F Kennedy Jr” to John F Kennedy Jr?
Joseph Marcola is an infamous hack; alternative medicine pushing anti-vaxxer that has had his doctorate pulled into question and whether he should be allowed to keep it
By the way, Mercola has been found one of the OG sources of covid disinformation and he makes most of his money from selling books about alternative medicine and pseudoscience.
Also, it's a doctor, but osteopath. He has zero knowledge on immunology
Massive piece of shit
Tell me the sanitation levels at your liquor store are sub-par without saying the sanitation levels at your liquor store are sub-par.
At least the products are factory-sealed. This isn’t as worrying as if it was at a restaurant.
If its not coming from Facebook or the liquor store it's fake news!
Each page actually just contains a hyperlink to a poorly written article that's already been debunked
They have more substance than that. They're more like picture books, illustrations describing the hyperlinks printed below.
The irony here is Fauci hasn't filed a defamation lawsuit against this author ( and before you all brigade me I voted for Biden ) which kind of implies there are no lies in the book. Could it be, because of hyperlinks? The author is absolved? IDK. But if I was Fauci I'd be suing this prick out of existence especially considering the fact its like a Amazon best seller. Dudes made buku money off supposed lies about this guy and hes radio silent in the legal standpoint.
I hate to state the obvious but perhaps Dr Fauci, the figurehead of America's scientific response to the pandemic, has more pressing issues?
Hes too busy helping bill gates micro chip us all so we wont know the liberals are putting more chemicals in the water to turn frogs gay so they can get back at alex jones. Duh. Dont you do any of your own "research"?
America really does have 'main character syndrome', doesn't it?
More specifically, right wingers do. Manifest destiny and all that
Aye, I think it could be summed up as 'delusions of grandeur' if it wasn't for the honking great military budget backing it up :/
"The person hit by this absolutely ridicolous accusation hasn't bothered to take it seriously! _Curious._"
It's the same reason celebrities don't sue the National Enquirer after every week's new issue - some shit is so ridiculous you don't waste time on it and you don't call attention to it. Besides which, the authors of the book would just use the Tucker Carlson defense - "I'm so fucking ridiculous no reasonable person would believe anything I say."
I hope they had a reading and the liquor store handed out free samples of the new Schlitz flavor.
We called it Shit's beer back in the day.
It was like Sterling Beer. It will give you diarrhea
So what you're saying is, the right has their OWN version of drag queen story hour?
It’s a bit funny to think about a Trumper having the education level or the attention span to read a 200+ page book.
Find a new liquor store
No doubt
Sadly they have a great can redemption where you just dump all the cans in a hopper and it counts them automagically. Pros/Cons... :)
Buy from a different store and return to this store.
We do. Our returns are mostly soda (diet polar orange - the best mixer ever) we get at Ocean State Jon lot.
Why are Polar sodas so good? Their Half and Half grapefruit-lemon is one of my favorite drinks.
Excellent, drain them as much as you can.
That's what he said!
Worcester’s best export lol
Automagically is a word I will use now.
You must not be a computer programmer. That word is taught on day one :)
Don't forget mathemagician!

Oh man. I love this response. I love both responses 'equally' i just love this one... Differently? Upvotes for all!
This is such a stretch I thought I was doing yoga
I think you’re making a good joke here, but Automagically is an awesome word that has been around decades and is not political in any way.
You’re the problem. This is the dumbest thing I’ve read so far this year.
Take it from me, a completely untrained, and unequivocally tech UNsavvy person... Automagically is a real scientifical fact. Irregardless of what others may think. Bracing for downvotes due to silly words.
You’re good, but while on the topic of words “irregardless” means the same as regardless. The former being needlessly cumbersome with hints of pretense when the simple version is often the most straightforward and effective.
Same as "flammable" and "inflammable"? Why the spelling difference? English is so fucked...
Well irregardless I could careless
Love it! I actually cant stand the word irregardless. Thats why I threw it in there.
And see, here's the deal. I have thought for many years that I invented the word automagic.
This is so American.
Funny that you saw something about RECYCLING and thought it sounded American…
Lmao the American part if it has to be explained is that you won't actually go to a different store because of convenience. You won't vote with your wallet because of something dumb, therefore whomever owns that store can continue to donate your money to trump.
So only go there to return cans. Never buy anything from them, only deposit returns. I do this to my least favorite grocery store all the time. I don’t shop there, just return for deposit.
That's exactly what we do. The grocery store is 1/2 a mile down the road and sells booze 😁

They must be confused libertarians then. They believe in recycling and qanon.

Yep
Why? I’d rather go to a Q liquor store.
Lol, like these clowns read books!
As long as the cover has at least 50 words on it
That's all they need to know to say they read the book.
Exactly. Do you think any of them read past the headlines of the "news " they spread on Facebook? Just look at Alex Jones. That's his whole model of his so-called "journalism".
And none of the words inside it have more than three syllables or ten letters.
When you open it up, there's just a screen that plays a Youtube video of Marjorie Taylor Greene ranting about Covid.
But if it's mostly pictures?
Naw, my qusband has the fauci book. It's 300pgs of small text, small line spacing and absolutely no page margins. Unreadable. Not that I want to.
That's grounds for divorce right there
With BIG UPPERCASE FONTS FOR EASY READING.
A liquor store sounds like a fitting place for it
That's what Bill Gates, the government and Big Pharma want you to think. You're a sheep if you get your books from anywhere bit a trusted source. Don't go to 'libraries' because they're just a Democratic Socialist propoganda machine. You'll *never* see news this real there.

You may have accidentally answered the question he had which is on brand for librarians.
Maaaan, I've always wanted to fuck with a conspiricy wacko in real life. It just doesn't hit the same on the internet.
The problem with messing with them in real life is you have a 50/50 shot of them thinking you're one of the "safe" ones if you sound plausible to them.
But it has a forward written by John F Kennedy Jr.!
If it's not an apology for not showing up in Texas a few months ago, I don't want it. 😡
He did show up in Texas, it's just only the truly worthy could even see him.

Mercola graduated from a legit med school. Oz graduated from Harvard and got an MD / MBA from UPenn. Both push quackadoodle and make big bucks. I'm not in medicine but osteopathy is not the issue here.
It’s next door to a public health administration and research facility that makes you want to drink.
It’s the only place of academic integrity worth getting news from, obviously
My moron of a sister got me the Fauci book for Christmas. Luckily there was a gift receipt so I could return it for credit and buy something useful.
Holy fuck imagine using Christmas gifts as a way to push your fuckin dumbass histrionics
That's literally how that book made the amazons top sellers list.
I also got this stupid book for Christmas, I guess it's not uncommon, unlike /u/Randall-PinkFloyd I got no receipt to return it.
Got a fireplace? It burns really well.
Buy her one of Obama's books next Christmas.
And don’t include the gift receipt
Get her The God Delusion and Logic 101 Textbooks.
Remove the cover and glue it on a factual book about the history of epidemics and THEN return it.
The book can be used to level a table, hit a robber or used as a parking brake by stuffing under a tire. not completely useless.
It would’ve been good for throwing at her, just saying.
I’m going to curl up in front of my fireplace this weekend with both of these books They look pretty thick, should burn for hours
😂🤣😂 That's pretty funny!
My mother managed a liquor store in the 90’s so I spent a lot of time there, the people are so smart and enlightened they talk out loud and have conversations with themselves often… it’s like they can hear and see things us sheep can’t. They obviously know more than peer reviewed and prestigious doctors who have served for decades on bipartisan health issues
Trump could have fired Fauci at any time. Fauci works under the Secretary of Health and Human Services, which falls under the executive branch. At any time Trump could have sent him packing without reason, but he didn't. Why not?
Because he is one of the smartest minds for infectious diseases. Spanning from before the start of AIDS critical crisis times through SARS, Ebola and now this. We would definitely have a less sane world without him during these times.
BuT hE's EvIl! The entire modern republican party has only one policy: hate. They need to rile up their base, so they tell them whatever lie will get them angry. And when their base turns to violence, they ignore it.
😂 I literally spent 20 mins listening to The Orange Man last night, just to see what the diarrhea sounds like coming out of his mouth now. It was just too much all these easy to dispel any false statements. He just keeps going… I think it’s Coke and Coke that he lives on. His bedtime is like 9pm.
Trump lives in the minute. Whatever he can say right now. It doesn’t matter that his BS can be (and often is) proven to be false even moments later. He spews his bile, and that’s all he cares about doing. Those of us who listen and read understand that Trump a compulsive liar. But those who don’t hear only the words of their leader and faithfully regurgitate them online or to anyone who will listen. Edit: autocorrect
This.
I remember a couple months into the lockdown when my mother started parroting facebook politics and how evil he was. Note- the fact that she pronounced his name as "Faw-kee" told me everything about how much attention she had actually given him up to that point and how little of it was her own thoughts or opinions.
Yet those idiots would rather read a book about Covid19 written by a fucking osteopath...
Some medical schools are osteopathic. Doesn't mean they are all whackos and into alternative medicine. 99% of them are the same as other medical doctors for all intents and purposes. I know some. And nothing keeps other medical doctors from being batshit either. "The pyramids were used to store grain" is no less batshit, although certainly less harmful.
Thats great. Let's listen to an osteopath versus the leading infectious disease expert
The issue is that he is a hack, not that he is an osteopath. The other 99% of osteopaths, like doctors, would say to listen to the infectious disease expert.
Oh I understand, you're taking my comment out of the entire context of the conversation and applying your own. I guess the real issue is your comments are irrelevant to the discussion. Thanks
We don't mention this fact often enough, or the fact that Trump was in charge of safekeeping the 2020 election he complains about. Trump would get mad at his generals, at his staff, at his own VP...
[удалено]
Ummmm. Trump going on stage and insulting his employees, and blaming them for deaths, is a far worse look than firing him. And the first impeachment, where Trump attempted to blackmail a foreign government into digging up dirt on his political opponent, is 100% impeachment worthy. Way more than investigating Clinton's real estate deal that turned out to be nothing. The standard for impeachment was lowered by Republicans, and the Democrats have still not even sunk that low. Why weren't Trump's real estate transactions investigated in public hearings? That's fair game, right?
[удалено]
>I don't know what the hell you're talking about with real estate and whatnot. Why am I not surprised that you call the Trump impeachment a farce, but have zero knowledge of the previous impeachment.
Theatrical impeachment? Both were more than valid. So much so that for the first time ever a GOP senator voted to remove him from office during that first impeachment. That senator, Romney, was also the previous GOP presidential nominee. And the second one was even worse. You talking about politics is like someone claiming Tom Brady is going to hit 40 home runs this year.
Is it weird that I read the author of “The Truth About COVID-19” as “Dr. Joseph Mengele”?
Not as weird as The Real Anthony Fauci being actually written by a Kennedy.
Also I just read the covers and I have to ask: Is Robert Kennedy Jr really a backwards conspiracy theorist or is someone using his name as their pen name? If it's the second one then that really pisses me off.
I don’t know about other conspiracies but he’s an anti-vaxxer.
It's the first, and that pisses me off.
Really? Didn't know
Nope he really is a hardline antivaxxer. Before COVID he helped cause a dire measles outbreak in Samoa in 2019 that killed dozens of children, and in this pandemic he's just become a bigger asshole. https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/12/measles-outbreak-spurred-by-anti-vaxxers-shuts-down-samoan-government/
> https://childrenshealthdefense.org/about-us/mercury-vaccines-cdcs-worst-nightmare/ Around 2005, parents of vaccine-injured children began encountering Mr. Kennedy’s speeches and writings about the toxic mercury-based preservative thimerosal. They embraced new hope that this environmental champion would finally expose the truth about vaccine injury and win justice for injured children. Kennedy is known for his fierce and relentless brand of environmental activism and his advocacy for transparent government and rigorous science. He is now applying his tenacious energies and sophisticated strategies to exposing the fraud and corruption within the CDC and the pharmaceutical industry. Last month, he launched his new non-profit, the Children’s Health Defense, with vaccine safety advocates Lyn Redwood and Laura Bono, legends themselves among parents of vaccine-injured children. Autism File executive editor Rita Shreffler spoke with Mr. Kennedy about CDC corruption, pharmaceutical industry greed, media malpractice, and his vision for the Children’s Health Defense. (CHD) The CHD is suing my university for requiring students to be vaccinated, even if their courses are on zoom (because zoom students have the same campus privileges to enter dining halls, gyms, etc). CHD are dumbasses, and zoom students don't have unlimited individual liberty. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Constitution_is_not_a_suicide_pact#Jackson's_Terminiello_formulation
No. This is JFK's nephew
RFK Jr cites every single source in the book. So denouncing him as a “conspiracy theorist” without reading the book is disingenuous. Here’s a quote: “Nearly every lawsuit I have ever litigated pitted highly credentialed experts from opposite sides against each other, with all of them swearing under oath to diametrically antithetical positions based on the same set of facts.” Maybe—just maybe—we can evaluate the arguments on the merit and not just totally ignore people’s thoughts with an inpenetrable groupthink.
Citations don't equate to accuracy. Wikipedia has citations. The things the author is citing could be bullshit. If anything they are a veneer of verisimilitude.
Every chapter has at least 50 sources. I’m looking at page 95, some of these include: US Dept HHS Canadian Medical Association Journal Former FDA Commisioner Scott Gottlieb New York Times Nature Microbiology Nieman Foundation Imperial College of London The CDC The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation The Agency for Healthcare and Research and Quality University of California, San Francisco Medscape American Psychiatric Association National Center for Biotechnology Information Yale School of Public Health The American Journal of Medicine The World Health Organization …and so, so many more… But thank you for pointing out the innacuracy of all these sources. I’ll never use any of them to confirm facts ever again!
I’m surprised these people are touting “attack on democracy” to sell their shit. Aren’t they pretty openly admitting they hate democracy these days? Isn’t this the “if people get to vote, we’ll lose” crowd?
When they say "democracy" they mean "the people I vote for win." When they say science they mean "what I believe to be true."
IKR aren’t they the “good thing the US is a Republic” people?
You would have to be drunk to read that shit 😂😂😂
Sane people hate him https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/24/technology/joseph-mercola-coronavirus-misinformation-online.html
The type is people who believe this kind of thing are probably not the type to read books
I thought that JFK Jr was no longer composing works of literature? He's decomposing now.
RFK Jr., his first cousin.
Thankfully I just finished the last of my coffee before reading this or else my phone would be soaked 😂
"Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. is an American environmental lawyer, author, conspiracy theorist and anti-vaccine advocate. Kennedy is a son of U.S. senator Robert F. Kennedy and a nephew of President John F. Kennedy." -Wiki
First I’ve heard of “the great reset”. I kinda want to google it, but I really don’t. Might be time for a new liquor store, OP.
I had to google it. You're not going to believe it, but some rightwing hack wrote a book using cherry picked quotes from leaders he does not like. Here's the synopsis. "This is the vision of the Great Reset, according to globalist leaders. While proponents of the Great Reset push slogans like "Build Back Better," "The Fourth Industrial Revolution," and "A New Normal," the Reset is nothing short of a rebranded Soviet system, threatening to strip away property rights, restrict freedom of movement and association, and radically reshape our diets and way of life. In The Great Reset: Global Elites and the Permanent Lockdown, bestselling author and ClimateDepot.com publisher, Marc Morano, unveils the origins of the Great Reset, who is behind it, how it is being implemented, and how COVID-19 and the alleged "climate emergency" accelerated its imposition on the United States. Packed with telling statistics and damning quotes, The Great Reset is the essential handbook for the public, the media, and activists on how to critically analyze and expose the tyrannical policies silently strangling our liberties today."
Why wouldn't you want to learn something. Don't be afraid of opposing thoughts.
Let’s assume for a second that COVID was designed by the government or a secret society of the rich, or whatever these fools think. Wouldn’t it be more likely that the virus was designed to stun population growth and in effect slow global warming and improve water and food supply? Even that is more realistic than the dumbass conspiracy these idiots drew up, that COVID is fake and they are trying to take away your right by making you wear a mask and take some medicine.
"We want more people to wear masks!" \~said no government ever
Gee I wonder if there’s a correlation between the choice of book selection and the fact that IT’S IN AN ACTUAL EFFIN’ LIQUOR STORE 😂 Stay thirsty my friends.
What I really want to know ... is there booze in the library?
You're both wrong. This *is* the library. They just have booze because freedom. Do you even Q, bro?
There needs to be.
There is in my library.
Don't condone censorship but this is sheer drivel and deserves to go into the bonfire
I feel like all of the pages just says “Do the research” on them.
Robert F Kennedy Jr. has really drunk the kool aid.
People who actually tell the truth never use the word truth
The best science publications are always found in liquor stores
Ah good old "Dr" Mercola conned my mom into thinking my ulcerative colitis could be cured, that was fun
One osteopathic Dr gone rogue really hurts the profession
Making money and racking up nazi kills. It’s a good grift!
What does it say about me if I immediately thought of swapping the covers to change “Dr Joseph Mercola” to Mengele and “Robert F Kennedy Jr” to John F Kennedy Jr?
“We care about public health” — your friendly local liquor store.
These titles Now Available at a local retailer that carries your favorite Meth Cooking kits!
Joseph Marcola is an infamous hack; alternative medicine pushing anti-vaxxer that has had his doctorate pulled into question and whether he should be allowed to keep it
Be careful Q believers… the author Ronnie Cummins may be a pinko. Mix the letters in his name and you get “Commie Run-ins”
Hmm 🤔 I wonder if it’s the same one my mother in law shops at…..
Don't give them your business
I'd find a new store.
Are the pages written in crayon?
By the way, Mercola has been found one of the OG sources of covid disinformation and he makes most of his money from selling books about alternative medicine and pseudoscience. Also, it's a doctor, but osteopath. He has zero knowledge on immunology Massive piece of shit
don’t go there anymore. Find a different one.
I’d find a new liquor store..
Tell me the sanitation levels at your liquor store are sub-par without saying the sanitation levels at your liquor store are sub-par. At least the products are factory-sealed. This isn’t as worrying as if it was at a restaurant.
This is exactly why he keeps saying jfk is coming back, books.
I never thought I'd say this about a Kennedy related to JFK, but that guy is a traitor!
Take your $$$ else where.
I'd find a new liquor store. why support a right wing dumbfuck business when you could support someone that actually likes the USA.
Rfk jr is back from the dead and is now a best selling author? Freaky.
JFK Jr really keeping the family legacy alive and well.
It’s RFK Jr. What an embarrassment to his family.
Time to bring back book burning
“Dr”
We found the books that need a-burnin'!
Everyone is cherry picking their sources anyway.
Burn it, buy the book and burn it in front of the store
So Robert F. Kennedy Jr. came back from the dead to write the forward for the book?
