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.

While I find RFK Jr has some bad ideas about vaccines, Covid lock-downs, Ukraine, and so forth, I enjoyed listening to this town hall:

RFK is clearly wise and mature in many ways. This is not an endorsement, just more grist for your political education mill.

I must admit that the more I listen to him speak the more wisdom I see in him, despite my initial biases against him. It is refreshing to see a politician who is so principled, honest, and direct in his answers.

This show is brilliant!

Joe Scarborough is one of the few decent conservatives in America, calling out right-wing bullshit.

Now, to you Progressive, Leftist cunts who will bitch and moan about this — about me endorsing MSNBC — understand this: This is mainstream news media! Mainstream news is not supposed to cater to your radical Leftist ideals. Mainstream news is designed to appeal to a very wide swath of Americans. And mainstream new's job is not to promote your Leftist ideals but to provide basic up-to-date news from a normie POV. So in this context, I say to you that Morning Joe is a very good show and source of news information. No, it's not TYT, Majority Report, or Secular Talk. But it's not supposed to be. Obviously Morning Joe should not be your sole source of news information. But as far as normie news goes, it's one of the best. Stop being blinded by your Leftism. You're so Left you've turned into an imbecile, and you blame everyone for it but yourself.

Do not cast me as some sort of "centrist" mainstream fool. I am extremely Progressive and anything but mainstream. But unlike most Progressives I am wise and mature enough to understand that the majority of the population is not developed enough to be truly Progressive. I consume an enormous amount of political news from every possible source: Leftist, centrist, and even right-wing. Because that's what Conscious, Mature Politics does.

I am sick and tired of Andrew Tate fans and their bullshit excuses and denials of Tate's depravity.

In this video Andrew Tate fully explains how he teaches young men how to do sex trafficking:

Anyone who defends Andrew Tate is a degenerate. There is zero doubt about that. There does not need to be any trial. The man straight up tells the whole internet that he does sex trafficking, fraud, theft, and tax-evasion. Case closed! Stop with your cope and bullshit. This is utterly immature shit. Shame on you for even daring to defend it. No "Matrix" is out to "get him". He's just a criminal who tries to bullshit his way out of extremely serious crimes. Stop acting like he's some sort of martyr. He's just a shallow, narcissistic, sociopathic, man-child. And the only reason you find his immature leadership appealing is because you are as immature as him.

If you want to be a serious man, the first thing you must do is start to respect TRUTH. That is something Andrew Tate can never teach you, because he's utterly full of shit and anyone who respects him is full of shit too. Like these idiots here:

And these people call themselves Christians?

How dare you!

What absolute bullshit! You are too stupid to have morality.

"But Leo, why are you so judgmental?" It's not about judgment, it's about seeing through bullshit. You seriously expect me to coddle your bullshit just because I am spiritual? NO MOTHERFUCKER! I will not put up with any of your shit precisely because I am spiritual! When I call out your shit, it's not because I need to judge you, it's because the only thing I care about is TRUTH. That's all spirituality IS! TRUTH! STOP LYING!

Few laymen realize how much outright fraud and bullshit passes as scientific research.

Scientists and researchers in universities will simply fabricate scientific data and results. Don't assume they are above that.

"Many of the most prolific fraudsters are senior scientists at big universities or hospitals. Few have spoken openly about their motives for making up research. But the confessions from those who have speak volumes about what may push others down the path."

There Is A Worrying Amount Of Fraud In Medical Research
(sorry, the article is pay-walled)

Never forget, science is a social game. It is not a pure pursuit of truth for its own sake. It never has been. That is one of the biggest myths of science. Science has always been corrupted with survival concerns. The #1 priority of universities, institutes, think-tanks, nonprofits, corporations, and hospitals is NOT truth, but survival. These scientists are corrupted from the top-down by their need for funding. And since most scientists are dirt-poor, they are easily corrupted by corporate money. Corporate agenda has seriously distorted science. We are no longer living in the innocent days of Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. Now giant corporations run the show and they set the agenda. Most scientists and researchers are so specialized that they cannot even see how their work is being influenced and skewed by corporate funding. And they are not in a position to do anything about it. They are like tadpoles swimming in ocean currents which go way over their heads. And the whales are Wall Street business tycoons who hold all the purse-strings, not scientists.

I have a funny personal story on this subject: When I was in 9th grade, my science class gave everyone an assignment to come up with and run their own science experiment at home and then present the results in class. I came up with an experiment to test whether people could tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi in a blind taste test. My method was to set up a stand outside a busy grocery store on the weekend and invite passersby to take the taste test, then record the results. So a week later I presented my results in the front of class with tables, charts, and graphs. My teacher and all the kids were amazed by how meticulous and objective it all was. I got a big round of applause. In reality, I was simply too lazy to bother going to a grocery store and doing all that testing. So the night before my presentation I just invented all the data out of thin air. Nobody ever knew I pulled the whole thing out of my ass. Now that's real science! Do not underestimate the mind's capacity to bullshit.

All the problems that exist within religion — the insane corruption — exist within science too. Of course! How could it not?! It's run by selfish, fearful, greedy, clingy, ignorant, closedminded humans. Of course it's corrupt! Anything a human touches goes corrupt! Because all humans are full of shit. Religion does not have any kind of monopoly on corruption. Atheists get this point wrong by trying to assign some sort of special evil to religion. In doing so they end up deluded by science. Out of the frying pan and into the fire.

Skip to timestamp 52:50 for the story:

When I tell you that being a conservative is a reaction to harsh survival conditions, now you understand what I mean. This is what liberals and Progressives do not understand! You Progressives are so fucking spoiled you have no clue! When you drag your mother out from under a pile for human corpses, only then will you understand why people are conservative. All your Progressive whining is childish crap. It's time to grow up.

To truly understand politics you need to be dropped in the middle of a war zone with no way out. Not sitting at home binging on YT and Twitter.
