By Leo Gura - July 1, 2023

I see many people jumping onboard to support RFK Jr as some sort of great alternative to Biden. However, they don’t consider his seriously problematic positions on health issues:

This new, fashionable crusade against “Big Phrama” has become the latest mind-virus spreading through social media. Generally what I see is that people who rant against “Big Pharma” have no serious understanding of how the medicine industry works, they are parroting group-think and not seriously thinking. Big Pharma is not good nor bad, it’s way more complicated than that. Big Pharma saves millions of lives, but they are also deeply corrupted by capitalism. Sorting that out requires far more nuance and intelligence than can fit within a social media post. People have a lot of deluded ideas about Big Pharma and how it operates.

I will tell you something very important, so listen up. As you get into the spirituality rabbit hole, you will get into the New Age rabbit hole, which also includes the “holistic medicine” rabbit hole. While there are plenty of good and important ideas within holistic medicine and health, there is also a lot of nonsense and outright delusional horseshit. So be careful. Joining some New Age holistic health cult is not the solution to “Big Pharma” or conventional medicine. You’re just replacing a corrupt system with a deluded system. If some of these holistic New Agers were allowed to run the US healthcare system their buffoonery and incompetence would result in the deaths of tens of millions of people. Worse than anything Big Pharma does. Which is why I cannot endorse someone like RFK Jr even though I actually like him. It’s sad because otherwise he has some very good ideas and I believe he is a good, decent person.
