From The Mind of Merc - RFK

Time for August's Mind of Merc post.

Sometimes I find my mind wandering over various eclectic topics and occasionally I am inspired to write some of them down. Today I was thinking about RFK.

I cannot get over this comment made by RFK at a recent hearing. He legitimately said:

“We, you know, people, we need to stop trusting the experts…And trusting the experts is not a feature of science. It’s not a feature of democracy. It’s a feature of religion and it’s a feature of totalitarianism. ”

Umm… WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK?!? This is the Head of US Health and Human Services telling us experts are bad and not a part of science. Aside from the undeniable fact of how wrong this is, could it possibly be because the experts are not agreeing with all the other bizarre and frankly ridiculous stuff he’s come out with?

Like:

-          Vaccines are bad and cause autism – WRONG
-          COV-ID targets certain ethnic groups – WRONG
-          COV-ID vaccines are linked to “thousands” of deaths – WRONG
-          Vitamins are better for treating measles than vaccinations – result: massive measles outbreak and several deaths

But, hey, as long as he supports Trump – that’s clearly the most important thing(!)
