Hi Scott, Thank you for your thoughtful response.🙏❤️🌟 I truly appreciate the fact that, despite some differences in perspective, you value open discussion and reject ad hominem attacks. That is something I deeply respect. I wish more people approached debates with this level of engagement and professionalism.

I completely understand your skepticism about government sources like HHS—no official website is ever going to offer a fully balanced assessment of a newly appointed leader. That is a fair point. My reason for citing HHS is not to present it as the ultimate verdict on RFK Jr., but rather to highlight how polarized discourse has become—where some dismiss him outright as a villain while ignoring the documented impact of his work.

You are right that every leader should be scrutinized, and I am absolutely not advocating blind support. However, I also believe that we should not dismiss accomplishments simply because they come packaged with controversy. The same scrutiny applied to RFK Jr. should be extended to all public figures—especially in healthcare, where policies affect millions.

As for the bear cub incident—I had to read about that one! It is certainly an unusual story, and I see how things like that can shape perceptions. But is a decades-old misadventure more relevant than his decades of legal battles against corporate polluters and his work on public health? That is where I believe the focus should be.

Regarding conspiracy theories, I fully acknowledge that some of his claims have raised eyebrows, and skepticism is warranted. At the same time, we should recognize that dismissing someone entirely based on select controversial statements risks shutting down critical conversations that deserve to be had.

At the end of the day, no leader is without flaws, and I am not here to convince anyone to support or oppose him—I am here to ensure that discussions remain factual, nuanced, and free from mob-driven character assassination.

I genuinely appreciate your willingness to engage in a meaningful discussion. Conversations like this are exactly why I write to challenge perspectives (including my own) and encourage thinking beyond political labels.
