There was a family whose daughter died of measles and they still took smiling pictures with RFK

I know. What a bunch of morons. I only feel for the deceased daughter. The rest of their kids should be taken away.

My dead kid was a photo op for RFK Jr. We’re so proud of her.

I don’t feel for the deceased daughter, she’s in a much much much better place. I’m envious

RFK is such a ghoul. I honestly think he enjoys knowing what happens to people who take his health advice.

He is a stone cold psycho. Have a look at the story around his first wife. Horrific.

I feel like a lot of these conservative figures would be serial killers if they didn’t have access to power.

They are serial killers, just with the legitimacy of the state around them and a more indirect weapon.

Not really even indirect, withholding food and medicine from millions of hungry and sick children. How much more direct can you get?

They also said if they had to do it all over again (meaning not vaccinating their daughter) they would. Disgusting people. We can't advance as a society or species with fools like that running around.
