Hasn't he already said he doesn't believe in germ theory?
Yes
Is germ theory still a theory or is it germ fact now m?
In science parlance, a ‘theory’ is a consistent and well established model of the observed reality. Hence ‘relativity theory’, ‘quantum theory’, ‘Maxwell theory’, ‘evolution theory’ or ‘germ theory’.
Antiscience nuts love to use the different meaning of that word in non-scientific environments to create confusion and support their lies.
Thanks.
I want to stress that I don’t fall in to the latter and was curious of the science meaning.
Yeah people get mixed up on the fact that science has theories and laws.
A scientific law is a mathematical relationship. Force is equal to mass times acceleration. In an isolated system entropy can only increase. Gravitational force is equal to the gravitational constant times the product of the masses divided by the square of the distance between their centers of mass. And other such things. It is limited, factual, and does not answer why, it merely says what consistently has happened.
A scientific theory can be proven false, and attempts have been made to do so but failed. They attempt to explain what's going on and/or why. The theory of gravity is that mass distorts spacetime to draw masses together, which is very different from the law of gravity I described in the previous paragraph. The theory of speciation as a result of evolution by means of natural and sexual selection would take multiple miracles to disprove at this point given how much evidence we have, but pieces of it can still change, and it's not a concrete mathematical relationship so it will never be a law.
A hypothesis is a proposed theory that hasn't been sufficiently tested (attempted to be disproven) to qualify as a theory. In science all experiments require beating the default "null hypothesis" which is that there is insufficient evidence to assert correlation.
Science isn't what we know but how we prove we know it.
It's a fact as much as gravity and evolution are facts.
he’ll say they’re red, blue, black, and green and Trump will be like “but I like purple” and he’ll make one purple instead
This is Trump we’re talking about, one of them will HAVE to be gold
The tackiest shade of gold. Washed, unpolished, plastic varnish-looking ass gold.

WTAF is a "mitochondrial challenge"?
Iirc, It means "proudly uneducated"
I found this article helpful: https://www.mcgill.ca/oss/article/medical-critical-thinking-health-and-nutrition/mitochondrial-dysfunction-bit-fad
It's basically "they don't work good" but it's become a fad to blame all sorts of things on their dysfunction.
Mitochondria are the powerhouse of crunchy conspiracies.

It’s what decides if you can be a Jedi.
Something that he just made up. Probably a thought implanted into his head from the worms that a wriggling around in there
No, it's real, but much like most of his other ideas it's something that wellness industry types blame on everything that isn't responsible for nearly as much as they claim, is actually pretty rare, can't be treated in the ways they suggest and definitely can't be diagnosed just by looking at you. Like "inflammation" or "toxins".

Worms have mitochondria ; perhaps they are promoting theirs be used to supplement the primate hosts?
If the worms do the mental work, that saves some sugar for the monkeys. Sounds reasonable. I do not know why people are making fun of it. Worms are good; be one of us…
It's just pseudoscientific nonsense to signal to his idiot base that he's one of them.
It causes you to either spontaneously combust or turn into an orange slime monster.
Powerhouse of the prison cell!

He is straight up chiropractor snake oil salesman levels of stupid and dishonest. The grifting chiropractors all talk about "inflammation" - all problems are related to inflammation, like how to conservatives "everything I don't like is woke" to the health grifters "everything I don't like is inflammation".
So just know if you see someone who isn't an MD talking about inflammation and I guess mitochondrial problems then just know they are either a massive idiot or trying to scam you.
A lot of the stuff he talks about like "inflammation" and "mitochondrial challenge" are like that - they're things that are real, but are also not responsible for nearly the variety of illness suggested, can't be treated in the means wellness industry types like to suggest, aren't as common as stated and can't be diagnosed just by looking at someone.
Oh, I thought we were just declaring things now, like mitochondrial challenges and bankruptcy.
BUT MITOCHONDRIA IS THE POWERHOUSE OF THE CELL AND THOSE KIDS HAVE LOW BATTERIES
You know, kids in airports are usually really stressed and tired.
Also being around a Kennedy in the context of air travel is like waking up in a bamboo forest and realizing you are a doctor named Jack.

This has to be some reference I’m missing. Fuck it, these are my lottery numbers.
Now I’m about to be disappointed because this is a huge reference and I’m gonna have to share the jackpot with like 8 million people.
:p
Congratulations on your $10 win angry seal. Here’s your giant check.
fuck it, these are my lottery numbers
uh oh (Im pretty sure they're referencing the tv show Lost. Watch it if you don't mind shit endings, as it was pretty good other than that.)
It Lost me too 🙃
May as well expand that to everyone.
On the other hand, mitochondria are powering the worms that are eating RFKs brain.
Could they maybe work extra hard and speed shit up?
Hello, I'd appreciate an archive link. This is borderline, so I'm not going to remove it. Anyone posting an article where RFK jr said it would be great too.
Trying to use science to validate his argument, against the validity of science.
He played Mirochondria Eve and now thinks people are turning into mutants.

RFK Jr. is a very normal person and I am not scared of him showing up in my house, mutating into an insectoid horse creature and drowning me in his acidic virus-filled puke.

Does anyone have any idea what an earth it was he was trying to impart because that made no sense at all.
