      Calling out an antivaxxers like @RobertKennedyJr for spreading antivaccine lies for 16 years and counting is NOT character assassination. It’s correcting disinformation and deleting the truth.🙄🤦🏻‍♂️ https://twitter.com/noorchashm/status/1356934382238498817 …

      Replying to @gorskon @RobertKennedyJr

      Again. The pandemic and rational, safe and efficient vaccination against COVID-19 have nothing to do with RFK. Nor, frankly, with the binary pre-COVID “discourse” on vaccine. Wouldn’t it be something if we found out the RFK is ok with COVID-19 vaccine - but safely? R U, RFK?

      It would be, but, seriously, you have to be incredibly ignorant of RFK Jr.'s antivax history to suggest that he ever *would* be OK with it. For example, he was recently on @AlecBaldwin's vlog promoting both antivaccine disinformation and #COVID19 denial.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/08/07/baldwin-lets-his-antivaccine-freak-flag-fly/ …

      RFK Jr. also likened #COVID19 mitigation measures, 5G, digital currency, and the like to “slavery.”https://respectfulinsolence.com/2021/01/13/rfk-jr-doesnt-like-being-called-antivacine-and-antimask/ …

      RFK Jr.'s organization, @ChildrensHD, regularly promotes antivaccine lies and has done so its entire existence.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/05/childrens-health-defense-ten-lies-about-vaccines/ …

      In fact, RFK Jr.'s @ChildrensHD used to be called World Mercury Project, and RFK Jr. used it to spread antivaccine lies back then, too.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/12/15/robert-f-kennedy-jr-anti-vaccine-not-fiercely-pro-vaccine/ …

      RFK Jr. has even engaged in dubious "challenges" about vaccines of the sort cranks use to try to falsely discredit science.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2017/02/16/robert-f-kennedy-jr-and-robert-de-niro-issue-a-100000-vaccine-challenge-its-every-bit-as-much-as-scam-as-jock-doubledays-vaccine-challenge/ …

          Indeed, RFK Jr. is, as far as I've been able to ascertain, the originator of the false claim that today's generation is the "sickest generation" because of vaccines, GMOs, etc.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2019/08/12/sickest-generation/ …

          RFK Jr. has also promoted the lie that vaccines are a major part of the cause of the "obesity" epidemic.https://respectfulinsolence.com/2020/03/02/vaccines-did-not-cause-obesity-epidemic/ …
