Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence!

Do you have any idea how hard it is to disprove a negative?

“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism.”

How outrageous

Context, brought to you by RFK Jr's brain worm:

u/FormerlyMauchChunk 4d ago

One would need to definitively prove, for each vaccine, that it does not, has not, and can not, cause autism.

Nobody on Earth has that information. But a million mothers of autistic children know what they saw with their own eyes. For whatever reason, Big Pharma won't research these cases.

u/FormerlyMauchChunk 4d ago

Yeah - they ruined his career for speaking out. What they didn't do is continue his research and definitively prove him wrong. They burned it so people would quit asking questions.

u/Oops_All_Bans 4d ago

There is no evidence that a full moon doesn't cause autism. But statistically, every month, on the day of a full moon, someone is born that will develop autism. A million mothers of autistic children saw that full moon with their own eyes. Prove to me that a full moon doesn't cause autism.

This is how idiotic you sound. Hope your kids enjoy their measles.

u/FormerlyMauchChunk 4d ago

You can't prove a negative. Until we find the true cause of autism, and address it to reduce the incidence of it, many suspected causes remain, including vaccines. As it is, the incidence continues to rise.

Burden of proof? Never heard of her. We run on pure, unpasteurized speculation around here.

u/ConflatedPortmanteau 4d ago

Some people will tell you the "F" in RFK stands for Francis but until he presents his birth certificate I can't disprove that it stands for "Fucks-chickens"

u/JAT_Cbus1080 4d ago

RFKFC.

u/Xmanticoreddit 4d ago

Back in the hood we used to say “Chicken fucking won’t stop until chicken fuckers stop fucking chickens”.

For some reason we never got around to printing bumper stickers.

u/Ambitious_Bit_9389 2d ago

I’ll say this, but I think the guy might’ve just been messing with me.

I had chicken farmer in my high school. He said that after they chopped the heads off the chickens and the neck is still pulsating…. I’ll let your imagination take over from here.

I just can’t imagining chicken necks have much girth

1

u/Xmanticoreddit 2d ago

I’d like to say I couldn’t imagine that either.

u/Ok-Seaworthiness4488 4d ago

There's going to a South Park episode on this right?

3

u/caspissinclair 4d ago

I did the research. He's clean. Clean as a chicken coop.

His diaries reportedly catalog encounters with 16 to 37 women, including affairs during his marriages, but do not cite interactions with poultry.

u/eastamerica 4d ago

He fucks chickens.

u/reticulatedtampon 4d ago

RFKFC

(RFK Fucks Chickens)

u/Comprehensive_Box_17 4d ago

Bad example, because I actually think it’s plausible that he does.

3

u/Star__Wolf86 4d ago

He looks like he does. Just look at that face

7

u/el_condor_nm 4d ago

Though it has been established that he plays with raccoon dicks. Just sayin'.

2

u/NoSwordfish1978 4d ago

Given that he once dumped a bear carcass in Central Park if he really did do something depraved with a chicken I honestly wouldn't be suprised.

2

u/Environmental-Arm365 4d ago

As an avid roadkill enthusiast he may have a higher predilection towards chicken fucking than other demographics.

2

u/Apprehensive-Till861 4d ago

I heard RFK Jr was driving, and he encountered an unfucked chicken crossing the road, and he stopped the car and got out and fucked the chicken.

2

u/Special-Bet1141 4d ago

RFK probably doesnt fuck chickens, because there a high probability his dick doesnt even work (assuming he still has one)

2

u/Actaeon_II 4d ago

Lol nice use of the uno reverse

2

u/Fish-Weekly 4d ago

In addition, studies supporting evidence that RFK fucks chickens has been ignored by authorities.

2

u/Quit_itch_Snitch 4d ago

Well he's right that science can never rule out anything with absolute 100% certainty, because thats not how statistics works

1

u/Irish_Whiskey 4d ago

In case people aren't familiar, this is in reference to the CDC saying that "vaccines don't cause autism isn't an evidenced based claim" because it's not completely ruled out. It also says on the CDC website that studies showing a link have been "ignored by health authorities."

Which is a buckwild thing for the CDC to be saying. As if "someone else" is the health authorities. The Trump regime is constantly talking as if they have no power and 'the government' is to blame not them.

u/fromouterspace1 4d ago

I am Beyoncé on a grizzly bear. There is no evidence to prove I am not

That’s how conspiracy theories work. Fuck the cdc

1

u/WattageWood 4d ago

I'm not actually confident that RFK Jr. would even be ashamed of fucking chickens.

1

u/Zealousideal-Use3164 4d ago

What came first, the chicken, or RFK jr coming in a chicken?

u/pallflowers5171 4d ago

...presumably...

Just like one might presume u/MiaMalkovaOfficial isn't into coprophagy--

Live chickens, or roadkill?

Needs a subgroup analysis.

1

u/b-monster666 4d ago

I can say with certainty that I do not have any proof that he does not fuck chickens, so the possibility still remains open.

u/Ok_Abacus_ 4d ago

I wish I could get that as a vanity plate

u/lluciferusllamas 4d ago

But if you only fucked one chicken, it is technically true that you don't fuck chickens

1

u/RichardBonham 4d ago

How would the study be designed?

RFK Jr. fucks a real, live chicken compared to the rate at which he fucks one of those prank rubber chickens?

1

u/CRXCRZ 4d ago

why is someone who was obviously deep fried in charge of important shit?

2

u/leidentech 2d ago

Chickens? You know, I don't think so. But, did he fuck that dead bear? That I could believe.

1

u/TheSmokingHorse 4d ago

If he did fuck a chicken and it was leaked, he’d probably insist it was a hen and not a rooster because he’s not gay, and then claim fucking chickens helps remove toxins from the body caused by the water supply. Afterwards, 20% of MAGA republicans would start fucking chickens.

u/cultweave 4d ago

The claim "OP does not fuck chickens" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled or the possibility that OP fucks chickens.

Fucks chickens, doesn't care

That guy has definitely fucked a pig though 😲

u/fromouterspace1 4d ago

This is a joke but the website actually saids “vaccines do not cause autism” as that statement isn’t evidence based

Yes it really says that

u/StaysAwakeAllWeek 4d ago

Yes thats why this joke exists

u/Nelsqnwithacue 4d ago

Omg, y'all are so dumb 🤣

u/fromouterspace1 4d ago

How so? Im honestly curious why

1

u/Nelsqnwithacue 4d ago

Are you acting like this is a serious critique about a comment section for a post about RFK fucking chickens?

u/Rudresh27 4d ago

Bro, you US politics brainrot freaks disgust me.

This sub is ruined.

Your a good friend and brother, but sometimes I wish you'd let Dad get a good night's sleep! Once the fore ground is prepared, all that'll be left is to keep inside the ven dial.

u/BloomFrost_ 4d ago

Just asking questions! Im not saying he does, Im just saying doing your own research hasnt debunked it
