I've been a long time foe of RFK Jr., spend way too much time here, and have never been under the impression that RFK Jr. was a darling here at all.

Filter for dates around his presidential run: "he's not really anti Vax", "he's the only candidate talking about health"... With Dorsey and other SV actors boosting him.

"he's not really anti Vax"

Ha ha, what a glowing endorsement.


This was never a majority opinion here

There are plenty of topics here where you’ll find that statement untrue.

That appears to be a general news article that doesn't reference HN. Can you clarify why you think it's relevant, because a general news article does not represent HN general opinion in any way.

Wait, so techbros angling for influence represent the HN population?

Sadly, there's enough MAGA here to share their downvotes but your "evidence" is pointing in a different direction.


"Darling candidate" is overselling it but there's a solid chunk of anti-vax, covid-truthing, lab-leak is-proven-fact, JFK just wants better food nutballs on HN.

They overlap with the climate deniers, the nukecels, libertarians and Trump fans.

And it clearly goes to the top, since his vice-president and primary funded was a Google CEO ex-wife, and he had high level support even before he went back on his stated opinions and joined the Trump campaign.

"Trump isn't Hitler, Hitler had policies" being one memorable zinger of his.


You forgot the chemtrail'ers.

On Dr Phil, an audience member raised concerns about "stratospheric aerosol injections." Kennedy responded, "That is not happening in my agency. We don't do that. It's done, we think, by DARPA," referring to the Defense Department's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. "And a lot of it now is coming out of the jet fuel. You know, those materials are put in jet fuel. I'm going to do everything in my power to stop it."


Is there a place that I can find this zinger of a quote? I assume the actual wording is slightly different.

> In 2016, Kennedy said of Trump, according to newly uncovered recordings: “He’s not like Hitler. Hitler had like a plan, you know, Hitler was interested in policy."
