Yeah sorry should have been more clear I suppose. The narrative they’re trying to perpetuate is that nobody is ill and all of the prescription drugs are unnecessary, and that all the people taking medication for their illnesses really just want to be off of it but have no ability.
Realistically, yeah he’s going to build the camps, and then it’s a very short hop skip and a jump to court orders putting people there.
To be honest they should just do an opinion piece saying exactly what we know he’s going to do. We don’t need him to pretend that’s exactly what he said.
This is a pretty cool example of media bias distorting facts in order to cause kind of a Shiri’s Scissor scenario in the reader based on where they get their news. Liberal source gives an inaccurate, more interpretive story based on what is already known about the parties involved. I’d wager a more conservative source would just give a direct statement of what RFK said here, which sounds fairly reasonable if you have no bias against the man and his team. Discussing this point becomes incredibly controversial between the groups because we have opposing interpretations of the same event, and it’s difficult to come to any understanding without breaking many things down into smaller parts.
All this is to say I agree, it should have been an opinion piece. It’s dishonest as it is now and would only cause friction, confusion, and raised hackles. We know how troubled teen camps fail kids, and what happens when bad people have power over vulnerable people. The writing is on the wall, but it’s not clear for all of us. Be less inflammatory and more informative, is what I think news should be.
They missed it because they were already taking liberties on what was actually said.
To be clear, I wouldn’t put it past him to do that, but that isn’t actually what he said.

Once the farms are built I wonder how long they’ll stay voluntary. He’s taking baby steps to a massive slave labor industry
TL;DR: voluntary “rehabilitation wellness farms”

With that many farms youre gonna need alot of showers. I know I can focus really good after a quick shower.
Man who frequently lies is misquoted in a way that is more in line with what he probably meant based on previous statements and actions.
I’m not surprised.
