The raw milk thing is SOLELY about the freedom to make your own decisions. That's it. Whether you are for or against raw milk yourself is neither here nor there. Are you for or against freedom?!

This makes me love RFK!

On March 24, 2020, Dr Jay Bhattacharya co-wrote an opinion piece in The Wall Street Journal entitled "Is the Coronavirus as Deadly as They Say?", which argued there was little evidence to support shelter-in-place orders and quarantines of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Is he scientist?

[@tamashumi7961]

He's a scientist but apparently not the scientist 😜

[@fastenit27]

The mainstream media needs to interview him and Dr. Robert Malone. Malone is one of the fist MDs to alert the public of the problems with the COVID-19 vaccine. He has been contracted with the DOD regarding his knowledge/expertise in vaccines and virology. I believe he has had professional associations with Dr. Anthony in the past as well. Contact your Senator to support the nomination of Kennedy for HHS Secretary if you think he is a good choice. This is a once in a lifetime chance to make real change in our Public Health system. I've waited for this for 4 decades. It may be our best and last chance.

[@arfurascii2232]

He recommended we pursue herd immunity before we had a vaccine and was vague about how we would prevent old people and people with comorbidities from being infected and killed.

[@petecabrina]

You know I will always remember the data out of south africa when omnicron swept through there in a population with a high unvax'd rate and barely left a blip on the radar. But apparently at the time this data and story wasn't worthy of reporting on or considering for our further understanding of the situation.

[@buzinaocara]

@@arfurascii2232 You are misrepresenting his case, probably because you were fed that misrepresentation from second hand sources that disrespected your intelligence and over-simplified his position into a manicheistic villain and you'll never even know that happened because you trust lazy journalism on their word.

[@DJTheBlondeSpirit]

YOUR PROPAGANDA IS UNWANTED WE KNOW THE TRUTH AND TRUST RFK.

[@fastenit27]

I am not advocating for or against childhood vaccines, but here is some interesting information I've discovered. The UK, Ireland, Switzerland, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Sweden, Norway. Finland, Portugal and others do not mandate vaccination for childhood school admission. Childhood vaccines are voluntary in these counties. All these countries have less chronic disease than the US. We are a very sick, unhealthy country in comparison. The children of these countries eat better quality food with hundreds of fewer toxins than the US. They score higher in math and science than the average US children. The education rankings of US children pales in comparison to most western industrialized nations.

Correlation does not equal causation. Try harder.

[@Adrian-hq5jk]

No scientist worth his salt does.

[@khaitran4710]

Name me one scientist who have respect for themselves back RFK claims LoL. He's a crazy grifter and a nutjob. Why would you ever want a guy with no formal qualification in health be the head of the department od health LoL. Silly little comment.

[@JohnH.Sturgis]

@@Adrian-hq5jk Grow up. Use your brain. All scientists who revere science support RFK's mission... scientists who revere money and influence most certainly don't.

[@McElvisss]

I assume you didn't actually watch? Or if you did, you didn't listen!

[@arfurascii2232]

No True Scotsman.

[@stevesmith3990]

Science is also being discredited by the complete lack of any willingness to study the cause of the massive increase in excess deaths since a certain medication was virtually forced on the population.

[@Lashb1ade]

Why would you immediately leap to blaming the vaccine when there was a virus inflicted upon the population at the same time? Seriously *why* would the vaccine be your first suspect?

[@ryanwilkinson1513]

just making things up. you people care about nothing except senseless cruelty. you're so weird

[@borkistanon4194]

@@stevesmith3990 the funniest part about Anti-Vaxxers is that they have no nuance, what if something else caused the "deaths" you're alluding to? What if those deaths are completely made up? For a bunch of people who are "just asking questions", Y'all sure don't ask enough questions about your own movement.

[@ameliam7898]

It’s easier to fool someone than convince them they have been fooled…

[@veg2man]

By the time RFK retires I hope you will have learned quite a lot.

[@Lighthouse567]

I understand RFK had expert advice from many scientists , many of whom were removed from their positions or censored .

[@GeraldSmallbear]

If Matt Ridley were any more level-headed, he'd be a shelf.

[@niknikmoore]

I think The Spectator and Matthew (the guest) both need to review the many videos on the Dr John Campbell YT channel. MRNA is not safe IMHO.

[@EyeByBrian]

John Campbell? You cannot be serious. 😂 Grifter all the way down. Also, Campbell is not an MD. He submitted a thesis on the topic of using video in nursing education. But, boy, he sure does like asserting that honorific ‘Dr’ to add ballast to his bombast.

[@michaelanderson9140]

Let's go Brandon!

[@tobetheanswer]

Character, Honesty, Integrity and Truth make RFK, Jr. popular. Talking heads deserve none.

[@canoedoc2390]

I would love to see Mr Ridley debate RFK Jr on COVID, the mRNA "vaccines", and vaccines in general. NO ONE FROM BIG PHARMA, THE NIH, CDC, FDA, OR ACADEMIC MEDICINE HAS EVER ACCEPTED HIS CHALLENGES TO DO SO. I wonder why.

[@Kinglife1000]

The thumbnail suggests all scientists are opposed to RFK's positions. Very interesting

[@KongSunWu]

Sad huh, they are all are on the government take. I guess giving a scientist $$$$$$$$$$$ can change what is science

[@fastenit27]

For those who take the position that Kennedy is not qualified for HHS Secretary, here are some well qualified medical professionals, scientists, virologists, biologists, medical researchers, etc. that support most of his public health positions and may also support his nomination: Dr. Robert Malone, Dr. Robert Redfield, Dr. Suneel Dhand, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Casey and Calley Means, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Dr. Heather Heying, Dr. Vinay Prasad, Dr. John Campbell, Dr. Bret Weinstein, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, etc. There are many more credentialed professionals that may also support Kennedy that can be added to the list. During this video, Matt Ridley (writer) and admits he has no special expertise on this heath care issue. Why not invite health professionals as guests with opposing positions so we the audience have a better deeper understanding of Kennedy's potential influence on the public health of America?

[@arfurascii2232]

"Here are some professionals that *may* support him" - brilliant.

[@fastenit27]

@@arfurascii2232 We need more balanced reporting. We almost never hear the advocates for Kennedy being interviewed. on mainstream media or even on point counterpoint on podcasts.If you want Kennedy to be HHS Secretary contact your Senators.

[@fastenit27]

​@@arfurascii2232Are you being confrontationally sarcastic or are you making an honest statement? I'll assume the best of you, and will correspond based on the later assumption. Each person I've included on this list, have said many positive things about RFK Jr. and have agreed with most of his public health positions. I have followed many of them for years, in print and on podcasts. I used the term "May," only because I haven't heard each one of them officially being asked if they endorse his nomination. Kennedy was nominated only about 6 days ago (11/14/24). Some have been outspoken, some were asked directly. Others offered their unsolicited support, but I didn't want to state unequivocally that all had endorsed his nomination - since I didn't have a statement on record. I can assure you, each one of them has agreed with most of his positions on health, vaccines and government capture. I became aware of many of them because of their support and working relationships with Kennedy. I am a longtime liberal, environmental health activist, from the greater Boston area. I have voted Democratic since 1980. I have not voted for Trump. I think all commenters should identify themselves. It will increase the chances of people acting civilly. When people of questionable character can remain anonymous, they often exhibit unseemly behavior. Unfortunately, this forum attracts some people with this type of character.

[@fitprotunes]

Good reason to be more concerned with ultra processed foods than carbohydrates. Some carb sources, like fruit, rice, potatoes to name a few, are perfectly healthy.

[@Lighthouse567]

Another important thing RFK wants is for the independence of regulatory bodies

[@denniskight4227]

Raw milk is NOT illegal in the US just hard to find Amos Miller and other Amish farmers will provide and some true organic farms.

New Study shows that Strokes have increased by more than 50% in the past year in the UK. It's not just the UK, but there we have data. We need comprehensive studies that look at variables such as how many Strokes occurred in those who took the COVID vaccines, vs those who did not.

[@peterbraun3197]

Guess what. RFKJ does ZERO "theorizing"...

[@Samuel-bu7xr]

Ultra-processed foods are generally very high in carbohydrates, as well as processed fats and refined sugar, so your first point falls very flat.

[@iconicon5642]

Matt just said that the scientific establishment has been corrupted by money. So in what way are people that disagree with the various positions of the scientific establishment "conspirators". The whole point of science is disagreement.

[@MattCellaneous]

Just more propaganda. You deserve no respect

[@randomroses1494]

Can you explain why care workers in the UK were compelled to take the vaccine or face the sack? Were specific reasons given by the government?

[@benwarnock]

This guy is actually fairly objective

[@ianramage1593]

Matt Ridley is a wise and thoughtful man. He does not make outlandish claims that cannot be substantiated unlike so many in politics and the media these days. His arguments are rational and nuanced. An excellent and informative interview.

[@BobfmBali]

Another "owned wet", not even sceptical, just nit picking 😮

[@serenevoice4765]

All this so-called expert needs to do is challenge one of the thousands of links Kennedy provides in his book, 'The Real Anthony Fauci". He can "disagree" but without challenging the sources in the book, it's just an opinion.

[@christopherbrookfield4785]

Very interesting interview. What has happened to Freddy, lately. In the last two appearance of him I have seen, one about Trump and the US Election Night and this one, he wears this disconcerting facial expression, almost as though he has just defecated into his underpants, or is attempting to do so. Perhaps I just failed to notice it before. I hope he is alright. ❤
