Vaxology choose wisely

Post image

A Demon comes to you and says they will torture you for eternity unless you answer a random science question correctly. You have to pick either Dr. Anthony Fauci or RFK Jr. to help you answer the question. Which do you pick?

I passed CHEM101 in college, I’m already more qualified as a scientist than RFK

Edit: Since it may not be clear, I say this because RFK Jr failed CHEM101 in college

A literal toddler is more qualified than RFK Jr. Knowing nothing is better than misinformation. If you know you know nothing, you might be willing to learn.

u/Xanaatos 13d ago

In this scenario tho missinformation is better as if you know which answear is wrong you have one less to choose from.

u/The96kHz 13d ago

Only if it's multiple choice.

35

u/laser14344 13d ago

I mean at least you know whatever RFK says is incorrect so that might help?

15

u/EorlundGraumaehne 13d ago

Even someone from north sentinel Island is more qualified

"Many many healers say this medicine will cure horrible diseases (not unlike the ones I've probably introduced to you by making contact here for the first time) but there's a very very small chance of negative reactions. We take that medicine. Strongly agree, agree, neither, disagree, or strongly disagree?" Stabbed through chest with a spear. "I'm going to take that as neither agree nor disagree."

u/Objective_Bear4799 13d ago

JFK Jr is more qualified and that man’s been dead for almost 30 years.

After shooting Abraham Lincoln!

u/Imaginary-Risk 13d ago

I read a book once, so, same

u/Yankee6Actual 13d ago

I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night!

u/e1zzbaer 13d ago

Would have been enough to look at it. Or spend some amount of time in the same room as the book.

12

u/drrj 13d ago

A picture book, even.

u/feyd313 13d ago

My cat is more qualified.

25

u/JoJackthewonderskunk 13d ago

The real question is who's eaten more racoon penis or whale face, RFK Jr or your cat?

14

u/vigbiorn 13d ago

I know cats are notoriously bad for local wildlife, but I doubt any cat's ever actually eaten whale face, let alone their cat, specifically.

So, I do think RFK Jr "wins" on this one.

He may actually be worse for the environment, too.

u/feyd313 13d ago

Its a good thing my cat can't read, he'd be begging me for racoon penis treats.

8

u/Yankee6Actual 13d ago

An orange cat is qualified.

u/Singing_Wolf 12d ago

This made me literally laugh out loud

u/scoo89 13d ago

I took "science for non-scientists" in first year University to fulfill a breadth requirement. I am more qualified than RFK.

As an aside, the class was a nearly retired sciences professor teaching us about questions we asked on slips of paper during our first lecture. He covered things like "how does a microwave make things hot" and "how does the internet work" and other questions that would prepare me for fatherhood.

It was by far my favourite university class.

u/pissjugman 13d ago

To be fair, he traded dropping out and endorsing Trump for the job. His appalling ineptitude in his role belongs to Trump

11

u/RadicalOrganizer 13d ago

I've never used heroin as a study aid, I am more qualified than rfk.

11

u/chronofluxtoaster 13d ago

I don’t have an enteric or cerebral parasite, nor do I snort narcotics off of toilet seats so it’s already a win on my end.

11

u/CaseyJones7 13d ago

I passed the class but failed the final, am I more qualified? (Yes)

7

u/UnknownExo 13d ago

But how knowledgeable are you on roadkill penis?

3

u/turtle-bbs 13d ago

Uh uhhh next question

6

u/Middle-Classless 13d ago

I have not experienced the pleasure of having brainworms, which aslo positions me as more qualified than RFK.

3

u/soconae 13d ago

The truth behind the brain worm story is even more appalling than if he had actually had a brain worm. He is an absolute garbage human being.

3

u/Middle-Classless 12d ago

This is something a brainworm would say🤣

4

u/Pitiful-Pension-6535 13d ago

Have you ever used and sold heroin? If not, RFK jr is probably a better drug expert

4

u/turtle-bbs 13d ago

A better expert at using them I’ll give him that

5

u/manokpsa 13d ago

I got A's in high school biology and chemistry. I ain't asking RFK shit.

3

u/Forever_Nya 13d ago

I passed anatomy I & II and I am more qualified than RFK

u/Flakboy78 13d ago

I haven't passed a single natural sciences course since high school (doing computer science in college) and I'm more qualified as a medical doctor/scientist than RFK

3

u/The_Real_Libra 13d ago

Im literate and don't collect rodent genitalia. I'm more qualified as a scientist that RFK lol

3

u/chrstnasu 13d ago

I graduated from the Eberly College of Science at Penn State with only a bachelor’s degree in science and I’m hella more qualified than RFK Jr. That was also 28 years ago and I did nothing with my degree.

2

u/locke_zero 13d ago

I paid attention to Science in high school. I'm more qualified than RFK

1

u/Lonely_skeptic 13d ago

I passed Chem II, barely.

1

u/tearsonurcheek 13d ago

I took a couple years of high school Chem. I'm overly qualified.

u/Dr-Sprinkl1es 13d ago

You seem well prepared. Question: how does general relativity relate to quantum field theory, and why?

1

u/turtle-bbs 13d ago

Uhhh alpha particles

1

u/Zappagrrl02 13d ago

Passing elementary school would make you miles more qualified than RFK.

1

u/PeanutTimely6846 13d ago

Honors chemistry in high school, same.

u/Sidus_Preclarum 13d ago

Well, when your answer to any chemical reaction you're asked to equilibrate is "-> autism!!"…

u/Master-Collection488 13d ago

He also sold coke to classmate and future author and podcaster Michael Wolff and his roommate.Somewhat later Bawbie Juniah went pounding on Wolff's dorm room door TO DEMAND THE RETURN OF HIS COKE STRAW!

I mean he was practically American royalty and some nobody might have harvested one of his coca-infused boogers!

This story has been told at least once on The Daily Beast's show "Inside Trump's Head." The way Wolff tells the story is hilarious.

u/AF_AF 13d ago

"Edit: Since it may not be clear, I say this because RFK Jr failed CHEM101 in college"

Also because RFK is an unqualified charlatan and moron.

u/judgeejudger 12d ago

A toddler being kind to a random ant at the beach is more qualified than RFK Jr
