@light @ryanlcooper there’s nothing wrong with "people should eat healthy and exercise to fight off disease".

there’s a lot wrong with discouraging effective and defunding promising medical interventions on the pretext that if people eat right and exercise they won’t need them.

RFK jr, in his pre-Trump antivax advocacy and his current destruction of research and public health programs, is clearly, at least in my view, engaged in the latter project.
