HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. incited backlash after questioning why autism is "only happening in young people" during a televised news briefing.
Y-u know guys at some point you just have to roll with this shit because it’s too absurd. I mean I remember I used to be outraged far far in the past when I still treated these seriously
Now it’s just hilarious. Outrage to entertainment pipeline
What you can do is laugh and be entertained because such stupid people at the top will probably never happen again for decades. It’s your chance to soak up all the entertainment potential
Exactly. My family is like “why does this bother you so much? You have a good job, a house a family, great holidays! All of this doesn’t affect you at all!”
“Well yeah, I guess I could just ignore that the world is going to shit and that people less lucky than me are suffering through all of it…”
I’m still friends with a lot of my college classmates. Most are pretty reasonable to progressive. But one has a harridan of a wife who is full bore Trumpster and bullies him politically. I don’t know if she still is but she was last year. Anyway, when we were discussing our concerns with the shit the Trumpistas are pulling, he said to our group (who are all upper middle class professionals with money) “Don’t worry, what ever happens, we’ll be OK.” And I replied, “That’s the problem. Others most assuredly will not be ok.”.
Problem is, all it does is push them in the wrong direction. My father went from “I don’t care about any of this shit” to “what the fuck do you mean I can’t go on my quarterly golf trip??” and on to “Bill Gates murders Indian children with vaccines and also have you heard about RFK Jr?”

That’s a very privileged viewpoint.

Also it is bold to assume this won’t ultimately effect everyone. Mismanagement of covid certainly did

If you find entertainment when people are dying, then something in you is defective.
But what if it’s evil people or people who willingly and purposefully do evil who are dying? Can’t I be entertained by that?
Who is dying where? Why would that be entertaining?
Yep. Defective !
