Newsweek asked RFK Jr. "why don’t you stop promoting conspiracy theories?"
RFK Jr’s reply:
"My father told me when I was a little boy that people in authority lie and the job in a democracy is to remain skeptical. I've been science based since I was a kid. Show me the evidence and I'll believe you, but I'm not going to take the word of official narratives."
"The way you do research is not by asking authoritative figures what they think. Trusting experts is not a feature of science, and it's not a feature of democracy. It's a feature of religion and totalitarianism."
