The greatest metabolic problem in the United States, obesity, has strong ties to the addictive hyperpalatable ultraprocessed foods high in simple sugars and fats that comprise the majority of the Standard American Diet, and he's not made any mention of it, let alone take any action to address it.

    No, no, I’m pretty sure it’s all the vaccines. That must be it.

    I’ve heard there is hydrogen dioxide in vaccines. That sounds dangerous! Just do your own research, no way that can go wrong.

    Even worse. There's a lot of dihydrogen monoxide in there. That stuff is the worst. Everybody who ever consumed it has died or will die at some point!

    Actually that’s one of the few positive angles Kennedy campaigned on: fighting ultra processed foods.

    I don’t know about action, but it’s at least the idea behind MAHA.

    He has a lot of good thoughts, but the problem is that he always drags them into crazy land. That and they're overshadowed by his stupid and dangerous thoughts.

    He's basically the personification of, "A broken clock is right twice a day."

    He has actually, if you pay attention

    The current push against seed oils and using beef tallow is thanks partly to him

    I dunno why you are getting downvoted. This is a core tenant of MAHA.

    The antivaxx pseudoscience and mass firings are unforgivable, and action on the food end is slow, but still.

    It's ok, It could be read as praise. He is a chuckle fuck as they all are though and seed oils are fine...

    Yeah. ‘The right action for the absolute wrong reasons’ is a common theme I guess.

    I was similarly struck by the visceral reaction against the Intel deal on Lemmy, which I personally understand a lot more about.

    My local co-op is covered in rainbow flags and support signage, and I'm seeing more and more white men, young and old, cowboy boot wearing, steel toe or running shoes, even one with a supremacist tattoo on his arm, meat head looking fellas,

    asking about the raw milk that comes in there and when is it delivered as it is gone very fast.

    We had white men in there of course prior, but these guys I'm seeing more and more of, are .. different. They really want that raw mommy udder milk juice.

    Hyperpalatable is a new one for me. Overall I think it's going to be a hard sell to convince people that "food that tastes less good" will be much of a motivation.

    As a mom, I think that having a lifestyle where both parents didn't have to rely on multiple jobs and overtime to survive would allow families to enjoy life and not have to seek out bursts of dopamine from the foods they eat as a bandaid.
