The naiveté of reporters who write about MAHA wellness influencers floors me sometimes. "Maybe Casey Means won't be so bad!" What is RFK Jr doing now that he's confirmed? Just some "eat less sugar" stuff, or is he pushing the same antivax bullshit he pushed for a decade before gaining actual power? https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreigawqkgzhm2q3gojbo6frsu5sfymrct5muctauxb4o5dxiggfhm6a https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreielv22pzozur4r6npo7l3kfjsc5g34q2lq5k34osv5ooodmxmjndq
Framing, in comms, is how info is selectively presented... Counted -> "Targeted" Public research study -> "Internal docs" Presentation -> "Confession" That's how Mike Benz reframes something basic- "EIP tallied tweets in our report" -as nefarious. He does this constantly. It's the whole game. RE:

Watch the new Surgeon General nominee rattle off "too many too soon", "our bodies know what to do", "THEY don't let you think these things!!!!" and the rest of the core RFK Jr disciple articles of faith. Then call Bill Cassidy in the morning and tell him this time, vote fuck no. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreie5hsxsckdoclimrvfeu22vfki2phvnitufooolh62o4yiufcefvm
Normal stuff from Casey Means, the wellness influencer turned new Surgeon General nominee - JB Handley is an OG Jenny McCarthy era vaccines-cause-autism truther - “vaccines mandates” are the term they use for *school requirements to vaccinate against polio* Another unqualified RFK JR disciple. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreifgzw5gyfp4ekeoiaps2krxmhbwsluqvzdmnigumwhkvnzwgwp5uq
I know that Michael Shellenberger, Robby Starbuck, and that ilk are professionally aggrieved perpetual victims but sometimes the sheer chutzpah is breathtaking. Today: Meta’s AI is lying ab me, why is it not moderating, & where are the social media researchers I smeared as censors these last 3 yrs? https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiarpx3oq6byfb4bazkcf6blurnnkrlosfcj2tqxfq3ezq7mv2wkie
Lolllll. Actually, Mike, you assholes framed AI research as “censorship”, you & Robby set mobs after ppl you smeared as “censors” and AI also treats YOUR lies as fact — welcome to the future! (Also not sure why Robby is mad about an AI saying he was at J6, which was just a stroll thru the Capitol? ) https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiarpx3oq6byfb4bazkcf6blurnnkrlosfcj2tqxfq3ezq7mv2wkie https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreid6mt4lbppkso3gzb3fuitlwgnc6tofbjzluod72d5lpw2zuvms24 https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreiggnaai3il7af5khxv5g2hbbdg7bvsygfki37xxt6mxp2hvnkpg3a

The Pence/Pompeo wing of the party splintered off long ago, and the crowd that Benny Johnson speaks to *wants* to hear theories like this. He will not be held to account for wild lies - if anything, he may be rewarded. This is conspiracy without the theory. He doesn’t need a plausible how, or why. RE:
