I'm not interested in arguing with someone not willing to look at someone's policies, but rather posts quotes uncited."He paints a dark, conspiratorial picture of the world, bristling with debunked theories, misleading claims and outright falsehoods.
Wi-Fi causes cancer and "leaky brain," Kennedy told podcaster Joe Rogan last month. Antidepressants are to blame for school shootings, he mused during an appearance with Twitter CEO Elon Musk. Chemicals in the water supply could turn children transgender, he told right-wing Canadian psychologist and podcaster Jordan Peterson, echoing a false assertion made by serial fabulist Alex Jones. AIDS may not be caused by HIV, he has suggested multiple times."
I'm happy to chat if you're open to discussing, but using someone else's canned responses is lazy debating. For what it's worth, even if half of these are quackery, he's still more competent than either of the two other choices. But this is all his opposition has, calling him a nutjob and a conspiracy theorist. Worst case, what if he is? I would still contend he's better qualified than Trump (definitely) and Harris (who was handed a candidacy and the Dems are swallowing it whole). His resume is far more impressive, his coherence and sharpness superior to theirs.
Have a good week.
