You think this is stupid?
RFK Jr. also thinks cell phones and 5G cause cancer. So get ready for an America with slow cell data and phones you're not allowed to put up to your ear.
I heard him tell a bullshit story about how he has hundreds of clients with grapefruit-sized tumors behind their ears from using cell phones. You know how you see all those people walking around with giant tumors behind their ears? Me neither.
That’s just cause you don’t get invited to the whale juice parties
I can get all the whale juice I want in the ocean anyway.
But I bet you can’t get bear cub corpses in the ocean, can you?
Not with that attitude.
Hello EDGE, my old friend...
The anti-5G propaganda was funded by manufacturers who weren't ready to upgrade, to buy some time.
RFK Jr is a con artist.
To be fair, people with tumors behind their ears will likely hide it to avoid assholes staring/taking pictures. I don't see many cancer patients attending chemotherapy either because they are wearing hats/wigs.
Still, shouldn't they get cancer on their hands instead? That's the closest body part to your phone at any time on average, isn't it?
But don't report on those things, because it's irresponsible to do that. It's simply to fill the 24/7 news cycle, not to inform anyone (despite this being a fact checking institute). /s
