“Have faith and watch what we do,” Robert F. Kennedy told a group of well-known anti-vaccine and health freedom activists on Tuesday night. “I think you’ll be pleased.”
They could hardly be otherwise: Kennedy is, after all, one of them. The longtime anti-vaccine activist is now running for president as a Democrat, bringing new attention and a touch of respectability to the same bad ideas he and others in his circle have been spreading for years. While Kennedy downplayed his anti-vaccine activism in the first weeks of his campaign, he’s since returned to form, first with a pseudoscience-heavy appearance on Joe Rogan and now with a health policy panel, featuring an array of figures who are not recognized experts in either health or policy as most people understand it.
