The assault on expertise is driven by an agenda to place uniformed, ill-conceived, often politically-motivated antiscience from charlatans on an equal footing with scientific consensus. Please read #ScienceUnderSiege by @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social & me: www.barnesandnoble.com/w/science-un...
A reflection of the plain incompetence and unfit members of this administration.
Yeh let’s investigate this clown shouldn’t take long
I trust Caroline Kennedy.
I wish Caroline Kennedy had already sued Donald Trump for co-opting her father's memory by taking over the Kennedy center and destroying it.
People like Kennedy should either stfu or be horse whipped into unconsciousness. Your choice, Bobby!
Lier!
HUH ?
Lying heroin junkie grifters are more trust worthy and knowledgeable than #PhDs and #MDs. 🤬 This murderer is desperate to add millions to the deaths he caused in America Samoa. They didn't vaxx folks and ran out kid coffins during a 2019 measles epidemic. MagaTs begin the culling of #America.
I think you meant uninformed.
ugggh. I hate that BlueSky won't let you edit.
MAGA is desperately trying to convince voters that expertise is bad, or suspect, or untruthful Success at that is a key step toward not only authoritarian control, but also the end of our species - eventually
Couldn't agree more.
LOL. Ok. They should stop listening to their automechanics.
Did he just straight up call religion "totalitarianism"? He's a staunch Catholic, so I'm a bit confused; www.ncregister.com/cna/robert-f...

As a public service each airline flight should announce whether the RFKjr rules will apply regarding non-deference to experts. That will be one crowded cockpit.
Thick as mince!
He's insane.

Dirty pos.
2025 is the year they can no longer deny global warming, climate change. Just this week fires, floods, dust storms worldwide- Watch video and read about it at CofA Blog heating planet project. cityofangels25.blogspot.com
Do these people take a drug test before they are officially hired? You know like the rest of us
Shorter: My ignorance = Your expertise. I hope people recommend local barbers or accountants to these clowns when they need heart surgery.
This guy is an idiot's idiot.
By the way: that would seem to imply he has not got much sympathy for religion. Bye, bye RFK Jr.
You know what really is a feature of religion AND totalitarianism? BLIND FAITH Believing something without evidence, without facts, without experts agreeing with you. Or today’s equivalent: believing something because some nutcase wrote it on the internet.
FIFY: We need to stop relying on the “experts” in this administration.
He’s SOOO off his rocker. This is the kind of thing that uneducated, insecure privileged white boys say.
Can we please get off this plane?
And say, "Whatever you do, don't push that lever."

#RemoveRFKJr ASAP 🚨
He is right (in an obtuse way) that expertise per se is not infallible and that non-experts can and do contribute to science. Scholarship is about testing hypotheses, debate, and dialog, creating knowledge as much as discovering truth. But expertise and science are not the same thing.
Nope, he's not right. He's invoking a fallacy that equates a valid precept with an absurd one: bsky.app/profile/mich...
Yes, of course. It’s an obtuse argument so that he can make policy based on his personal feelings. It’s ridiculous to expect people to do all their own science. Libertarianism and science are incompatible, it’s the science of a toddler, not accepting anything he can’t put in his mouth.
Huh??

Stalin disavowed the expert Vavilov to favor the quack Lysenko, Mao purged and instilled hatred against intellectuals and scientists, Hitler wanted all scientists who happened to not be considered loyal Aryans dead. No, unbiasedly trusting the experts is not totalitarianism, quite the opposite.
