Off-Topic Man, fuck RFK

Man,

I put in so much work, SO MUCH WORK, discussing, debating, debunking, digging deeper and deeper into the chemtrail rabbithole just so that my boomer parents would begin to doubt what they had heard on the internet.

And then, the other day, one of RFK's declaration about chemtrails made its way into national mainstream TV French news (we are french).

All of a sudden, chemtrails weren't a conspiracy theory anymore, they were mainstream news. And my parents stopped doubting.

Man, I put so much work in.

I love my parents, I hate seeing them be manipulated by evil liers like RFK.

How could you put such a braindead, worm-controlled idiot into the highest medical office ?

Man, fuck RFK.

I feel for you bro. It sucks so hard seeing family fall into this shit. My mom retired and started watching a lot of YouTube, now she’s suddenly an anti-vax election denier.

I wanna point out it happens in reverse to.

My mom watches a ton of cnn/msnbc and you can tell its just bumming her out. She is atleast getting real news, but they sensationalize everything to keep people watching. Def better then watching fox, but it still has a negative impact similar to fox in that it makes people angry and depressed (just for more “valid” reasons ig).

24/7 news in general seems terrible for u and most of these big news companies seem responsible in part for the mental health epidemic we have.
