You tell me. He literally called Trump’s fast-food diet in specific “poison” four days before that photo was taken.

This is the same guy who claims my disability (which is medically proven to be caused by viral infections) is caused by eating “junk food”.

He lies constantly to try and get people on his side. He makes so many stupid and disgusting claims. He claims AIDS is caused by the “gay party lifestyle.” He’s never explained how women and heterosexual male IV drug users get it. He’s just used it as a way to be queerphobic.

And he doesn’t like processed foods, so he makes up stupid shit to make them sound as bad as possible. I agree with him that we shouldn’t be eating all this processed food, but there are legitimate basic scientific reasons like the health risks that come with obesity. You don’t need to make shit up.

In his book, he claims HIV is a “manufactured “ culprit for AIDS, and that AIDS, along with most chronic diseases, is caused by bad foods and chemicals, which is leading to a global immune deficiency crisis.

I had to read his book (pirated ofc), because I’m one of better connected advocates to the US government for my disease, so I need an idea how to navigate this administration.

So he can’t even be consistent in his lies.

As journalist Justin Ling observed last year, Kennedy has enthusiastically promoted an untrue link between poppers and AIDS at least since his 2021 book The Real Anthony Fauci. In that book, Kennedy frequently cited the long-discredited work of AIDS denialist Peter Duesberg, falsely claiming that “heavy recreational drug use in gay men and drug addicts was the real cause of immune deficiency” among AIDS victims of the 1980s and 1990s. Kennedy went on to write that he had never “found any evidence that HIV ever actually kills a T-cell,” asserting that the connection between HIV and AIDS was itself the product of a medical conspiracy with former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Anthony Fauci at its head.

“100% of the people who died — the first thousand who had AIDS were people who were addicted to poppers,” Kennedy (falsely) told an audience of supporters in a video posted by the watchdog social media account PatriotTakes in 2023. “There were people that were part of a gay lifestyle, where they were burning the candle at both ends […] and there were poppers on sale everywhere at the gay bars.”
