Everything I hear about that guy is worse each time

[-] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 177 points 4 days ago

The actual self quote is so much worse than the headline

“I was standing in front of my parked car on I-684 cutting the penis out of a road killed raccoon, thinking about how weird some of my family members have turned out to be,” he wrote, reportedly reflecting on strained relationships with his brother Douglas Kennedy and cousin Bobby Shriver. “My kids waited patiently in the car.”

[-] nkat2112@sh.itjust.works 65 points 4 days ago

Holy...

This might be weirder than the time he bragged about his immunity and fearlessness of germs in the context of cocaine and a public toilet seat. But I forget how that goes.

Where does it rank relative to strapping a whale head to the roof of the minivan, dripping whale goo on his family?

[-] variablenine 35 points 4 days ago

Or the time he dumped a dead bear cub in central park and staged it to look like a bicycle accident. That was only 12 years ago

Everything I learn about him is against my will.

[-] variablenine 17 points 4 days ago

He also beheaded a beached whale with a chainsaw and bungee corded it to the top of his minivan for a five hour drive

[-] Dojan@pawb.social 15 points 4 days ago

That sounds made up. But so does all the rest of this.

What the fuck.

Calling these people "weird" does a disservice to all good and honest weird people all over the world.

[-] Malyca@lemmy.zip 39 points 3 days ago

I keep thinking about that guy that had to shutter his political career because of one awkward yell at a campaign rally. Or Al Franken. How did we get from there to here?

[-] skisnow@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 days ago

Imagine being 18 years old and this kind of insanity is all you’ve ever known.

Don't forget Al "I invented the Internet" Gore. What actually happened was: Al Gore as a young senator was shown ARPANET, the precursor to the Internet. He then wrote the High Performance Computing Act of 1991 which led to the creation of the Internet as we know it today. During the 2000 presidential election cycle, he gave an interview in which he stated that he "took the initiative in creating the Internet" -- a perfectly reasonable claim that went unremarked upon at the time. Months later, Bush advisor Karl Rove dug up the interview and orchestrated a smear campaign through which Gore was supposed to have claimed to have "invented the Internet" and the rest is history.

Democrats do not sabotage their careers by yelling weirdly or being photographed with their tiny heads sticking out of tanks. They are assassinated (just politically, usually) by a savage and ruthless enemy.

AND WERE GOONG TO WHITE HOUSE ! HEYAAH

Fucking classic

Honestly I’d give my left testicle to even have John McCain back in office. I didn’t like that guy but atleast when he talked about Obama he said something like “no he’s not a Muslim and he’s not going to ruin the country. He’s a fine man we just disagree “

Or something like that.

I’d trade trump for McCain right now if it was an option.

So I agree WTF happened to politics! They aren’t even trying to be shady anymore.

We know the government doesn’t have aliens now atleast because trump would have announced it, say he found them, and name the species after himself.

[-] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago

Trump told a lot of stupid, hateful people that their bigotry and ignorance weren't merely justified, they were righteous in their beliefs

He told them that their hatred made them better than the people they fear

He promised them that he would hurt the people they dislike, and they're hoping that they'll get to hurt them too

And too many people in the US are stupid, ignorant, afraid and full of hatred

[-] Slashme@lemmy.world 30 points 3 days ago

That doesn't bother me at all. I come from a biologist family, and this is unusual, but not morally wrong, and it speaks to curiosity. Unfortunately, his curiosity didn't extend to developing a working understanding of science or biology, and he turned into a conspiracy theorist with a complete lack of self-criticism.

So now, instead of becoming a scientist, he's destroying the practice of science in the USA.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 16 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

hes totally in the pseudoscience. even someone with a science background isnt going around cutting off dead animals penises. he also chose the animal with the most dangerous pathogens too.

Tom Green humped a dead moose. Does that qualify him to be the surgeon general?

[-] dumbass@piefed.social 69 points 4 days ago

Tom Green would be profoundly better as the surgeon general.

It has been said that in times of trouble, the arts flourish. I don't know how true that is, but of all the tributes I've seen to the batshit crazy that is RFK Jr, I think our own @Formfiller@lemmy.world has captured RFK Jr's true self best in the most fitting artistic memorialization I've seen yet:

I think this is just what happens when republican men don't feel like they can be bisexual.

[-] Yuccagnocchiyaki@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

I promise that, because of the way he acts towards animals, he has killed and eaten people

[-] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 days ago

This is WEIRD, right?

I mean I know there are professions and hobbies where cutting the penis off an animal carcass is just another Tuesday. I assume there are (or have been) cultures where this sort of thing tracks. But, this isn't a normal thing for people to think about doing, let alone do, right? Or am I the weirdo and literally it's super common to play with the penis of dead animals?

Like, I'm not intentionally being ablest or anything, so feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

And in all fairness, I haven't read the private journals to know the details of this "absurd scenario" and given the subject matter, I don't think it's anything I'd want to read, the headline is more than enough to be off putting. So, there is that.

[-] Bongles@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

It's RFK Jr. This is just another day for him.

He took a beached whale carcass' head, threw it on top of his car, and the "juices" leaked in through the window on his kids.

He dumped a dead bear cub in central park and left a bike on top just to make it look weird, as a "prank".

He snorted cocaine off the toilet seat according to himself.

And this is the stuff he openly talks about, I'm convinced you can search "RFK Jr animal story" with damn near any animal and you'll find something.
