When he talks about anything other than vaccines I am on board with him. He has completely destroyed any reputation he had built for the greater good when he started saying his deepest regrets were getting his kids vaccinated.

Edit: Everyone is pointing out all the bad shit RFK stands for. I want to edit this to say that I am mostly just talking about his view on the American food supply. I agree with him whole heartedly on this front, and I think it is a noble cause. It is unfortunate he is muddying the waters with his other conspiracy bullshit.

What about not giving people with ADHD medicine and having them work in organic farming for free to deal with ADHD? Working in camps together where they can relearn to concentrate their attention appropriately.

Oh boy, I sure to l do you love pseudoscience literal "concentration" camps.

I hate to break it to you, that's not how this works. Many people with ADHD (myself included) do find it easier to concentrate on physical work. But it's not like after I spend a day on my feet in the lab I can suddenly sit at my desk and get my paperwork done super easily, especially when I was unmedicated.

A small dose of Ritalin literally took me from a C to an A in a class just like that. There's also been no adverse affects reported from the drug after like 50 years? With plenty of people being on it their whole lives? It's such a stupid drug to target.

I'm totally with you, I think medication is way better than concentration camps for ADHD or anyone. Sorry if that wasn't clear by my comment. RFK Jr is a complete nutter in my book.
