I am hoping he bans combustion cars from dense urban area.
Can medicine finally stop getting jingles?
Fuck you (drug you all wanna mention but I won’t give them the exposure here) and your randomly changing cast of dancers and main singer.
No more big story to tell got you.
So RFK2 with this and Trump trying to end DST.
If they can stay on the fringe of everything like that then maaaaybe it won’t be so bad? But they can’t.
Only old or ignorant people still watch ads. So, of course this piece of shit sees them all day long.
Not defending the guy, to be clear, but.
That’s actually not how advertising works. Unless you live in a bubble in the US, you’re seeing drug ads at the tire shop, airport, restaurant, gas station, billboards, everywhere.
Advertising is more about subconscious placement of things than active watching. Very few people sit down with a bowl of popcorn to watch 30 commercials for pleasure. You don’t even realize it got you, and may never.
Futurama did a good sketch on the concept with “lightspeed briefs” where they were advertising in Fry’s dreams. Principle has always been the same.
These ads used to be illegal, until the FDA in 1997 made it legal, David A. Kessler, who’s appointment continued by President Bill Clinton at the time made them legal. This same FDA actually did good things like nutrition facts labels, so it wasn’t all terrible. They alleged that advertising drugs would help inform the public, although in reality, it is a terrible mechanism to broadcast that type of information as marketing to an uninformed public and it should have never been allowed.
Also not to mention, it influences your friends or family and the people you interact with. Unless you’re an antisocial hermit, you’re going to be affected one way or another
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Finally this loser advocates for something I don’t like.
For real lol
There are fools who believe that Big Pharma won’t take over Big Supplement (and the ads will be for supplements).
I wonder if that ban includes quack remedies?
Read what a lot of you are saying in this thread about “rare W” and the like and realize this poignant saying…
“You can’t only piss in one PART of the pool”
You won’t get just the one thing you want from RFK, you’ll get it all - Stop taking the bait, dipshits. This is the candy he’s trying to give you while sliding down your pants with the other hand and slathering coconut oil on your b-hole.
Trump won, so the US will get a pissed pool no matter what.
To say “rare w” isn’t to deny that, it’s acknowledging that even though the pool is absolutely disguising with 80% piss, at least that’ll help some people with skin conditions.
Yep that’s basically it. “Rare W” is not an endorsement, it’s pretty much the opposite : recognizing that an otherwise terrible person/organization did something good or made a good point for once.
Ooh, anything else about him worth mentioning?
“Man wants to spend time socializing with children and giving them gifts” is an odd lead in for “unapologetic child molester stalks local park”
Honestly kind of weird, you would expect him to allow literally anybody to advertise their drugs from his usual deregulatory stance.
He’s a weird mix of “cannot be allowed near the job” and great ideas.
Well, two. This and getting the stigma off of psychedelics.
Nothing’s worth having an anti-vaxxer in charge, though. Not even close.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day
You forgot his third one, he supports stem cell research, which is odd given that his new buddies don’t approve of creating new sources of stem cells (aborted fetal tissue).
Well, IVF is still legal for the time being.
And fun fact! Depending on the facility, if there’s any unused fertilized eggs left the woman/couple can decide to donate them to medical stem cell research facilities.
Yes, that would be good, but let’s be real here, this is basically a statement that says “hey big pharma, I’m not getting enough campaign contributions!! Get off your ass and give me some cash!” - Trump
This will NEVER get passed in a Trump administration. It’s all window dressing on a big pile of streaming shit.
Most of what RFK proposes or wants to propose would impact the bottom line of big pharma.
You think they’re going to allow that?
Never fuck with the money.
RFK doesn’t mind annoying the corporatocracy…
I seem many bad things being said, and some hopeful things mixed in. I’m just waiting until it’s all said and done to assess the outcome.
I guess the worm didn’t eat all of it.
Nearly all countries do this. Even the regressive ones. It’s one of the biggest reasons why pharma is a massive cash cow in the US, alongside the fact that we don’t negotiate drug prices aside from a handful of drugs and only medicare/medicaid and only the past <4 years or so.
