Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is facing widespread criticism from political leaders and civil rights organizations after a video surfaced of him making false claims that COVID-19 was designed to attack certain ethnic groups while sparing Ashkenazi Jews and Chinese people — a conspiracy theory that drew accusations of antisemitism and racism.

    Did you even read the article. None of it is factual, even the author of one of the articles he referenced said he was wrong.

    No idea why you’re supporting this man.

    People really need to be more educated to read between the lines instead of taking everything at face value.

    This was clearly a racist and antisemitic comment. Even it being factual would not change that.

      There are vast differences on how different ethnicities were able to combat the virus.

      That’s a fact.

      No idea why you’re supporting this man.

      Because I’ve listened to what he says and his interactions with people, instead of basing my impressions on him on headlines.

      Agreed, and they’d see this article and made up controversy is just big media calling the shots. Listen to the candidates interviews and interactions, and I promise you’ll understand every candidate better than just the media conglomerates narratives.

      This was clearly a racist and antisemitic comment

      Saying that some ethnicities handled the virus better/worse is not racist, nor antisemitic.

      Sickle cell affects african americans more than other ethnicities. Is that racist to say?
