Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a critic of Donald Trump’s diet, was seen sharing McDonald’s and Coke with Trump and others on a flight.

Kennedy, picked to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, has called Trump’s fast food diet “poison” and pushed for healthier food reforms, like cooking McDonald’s fries in beef fat tallow.

The moment sparked online mockery, with some joking it was a “hazing ritual” for his alliance with Trump.

    these articles, though accomplishing nothing, do serve as a distraction to keep everyone from considering the fact that usa is actually a fascist dictatorship now. but yea, let’s keep talking about how yet another trump toady has reversed their position for dear leader. because that’s news

    edit: here’s a readworthy thing from 2017

    1. They will come to power with a campaign based on fear, scaremongering and distorting the truth. Nevertheless, their victory will be achieved through a democratic electoral process. But beware, as this will be their argument every time you question the legitimacy of their actions. They will claim a mandate from the People to change the system.
    1. They will divide and rule. Their strength lies in unity, in one voice and one ideology,

    point 2 means no dissent among their ranks. that means anyone who previously criticized trumps junk food will now shovel mcdonalds in their face with glee.

    there isn’t much time. everyone should be spending it gaining and spreading useful knowledge

      It will be a fascist dictatorship starting Jan 20th. Until then we’re just a whiney-bitchocrasy filled with a bunch of lazy people and their scared Chihuahua elected officials that think bravery is not pissing their pants over what’s coming.

      Absolutely. Musk and RFK look uncomfortable, Junior barely knows where he is as usual, and Trump looks relaxed and pleased. You know exactly who’s idea this was.

    It reminds me of that scene in The Boys where Homelander forces The Deep eat his octopus friend to torture him, force him to debase himself and force loyalty. True sociopathic behavior.

      I mean, I’ve eaten a lot of things I don’t usually eat, when there was social pressure of the kind this photo shows.

      And he does look unhappy on the photo.

      But, ahem, this resembles celebrity discussions.

      It’s fashionable among certain types to demonize “seed oil” and instead use something more “natural” like beef tallow. RFK is on that train, apparently.

      If Americans are getting fatter (and they are) I doubt it’s from seed oil.
