Wow. Just wow. I don't think @noorchashm is there yet, but he's definitely sliding towards becoming antivaccine. He's now praising @RobertKennedyJr over provaccine advocates. Let's remind him a bit about RFK, Jr., shall we? 1/

Let's see, @noorchashm. What is it that you admire about RFK Jr.? Is it the multiple times that he's likened vaccination and school vaccine mandates to the Holocaust? Is that what you admire about him? 2/ respectfulinsolence.com/2015/04/09/the…

Or maybe it's the time that RFK Jr. sucked up to then President-Elect Donald Trump, hoping to score a spot as the head of a "vaccine safety" commission. 3/ respectfulinsolence.com/2017/01/11/don…

Recall that during the 2016 campaign Trump met with antivax guru Andrew Wakefield and an antivax chiropractor who was a major supporter of @FloridaGOP. 4/ respectfulinsolence.com/2016/11/02/don…

Is that what you admire about RFK Jr.? 5/

Or maybe you admire the way he lied about the Samoan measles outbreak in late 2019, a few months before the #COVID19 pandemic, even going so far as to write to the Prime Minister to spread lies and fear about the MMR. 6/ respectfulinsolence.com/2019/12/05/sam…

Or maybe you admire how RFK Jr. has been spreading the lie that the current generation of children is the "sickest" generation of children, largely because of vaccines? Is that what you admire about him? 7/ respectfulinsolence.com/2019/08/12/sic…

Or maybe you like the way RFK Jr. has targeted minority communities to spread fear about vaccines. 8/ respectfulinsolence.com/2019/10/23/har…

Or perhaps you "admire" how RFK Jr. cozied up to the Nation of Islam in order to target African-Americans with his antivaccine disinformation in the service of stopping a bill that strengthened school vaccine mandates in CA. 9/ respectfulinsolence.com/2015/06/18/cra…

Or maybe you are impressed by the fact that RFK Jr. is so antivaccine that his own family called him out for it a couple of years ago. 10/ respectfulinsolence.com/2019/05/08/rfk…

But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe what you like about RFK Jr. is the way that he's gone full #COVID19 denier and anti masker and has done everything he can to frighten people into thinking #CovidVaccine is dangerous. 11/ respectfulinsolence.com/2020/08/07/bal…

Or maybe, just maybe, you admire RFK Jr. for his appearing in front of a group of far-right "anti-lockdown" and antimask protesters in Berlin a couple of months ago. 12/ respectfulinsolence.com/2021/01/13/rfk…

I could go on and on and on about RFK Jr.'s antivaccine propagandizing and activism, as well as his attempts to combat any reasonable effort to slow the spread of #COVID19 including masks and, yes, #CovidVaccine, but I think I've summarized enough for now. 13/

So let me just conclude by asking @noorchashm again: What is it that you, as a self-proclaimed dedicated "provaxxer," admire about RFK Jr. and his beliefs about vaccines, #COVID19, and #COVID19Vaccine over and above us "morons"? 14/14

I see that @noorchashm has deleted the original Tweet I subtweeted. Too bad the Internet is forever. 14a/14

TBH, I’m beginning to wonder if he was drunk or high when he Tweeted such things. 14b/14
