That is called propaganda. Half of Twitter is bots and they post this nonsense to try to support their authoritarian regime.
Lead poisoning has been my working theory to explain the last 50 years.
Nah, plenty of younger folks think this way.
Who said the lead poisoning stopped?
it's not lead poisoning. it's people going insane because they live in internet/social media bubbles that lead to constant escalation reinforcement. you can see that nonsense here on lemmy in this very thread where people reinforce a false narrative and then escalate it with more rumor and nonsense or cherry-pick facts from history/reality to reinforce the delusional narrative that the other side is 'evil' and refuse to acknowledge your own side is also evil.
People are so wrapped up in their political ideas and identities they are literally cutting off their noses and doing other deranged things all to 'own' the other side.
And they use this to justify violence against others and themselves.
When they say "Trump derangement syndrome" it always makes me think of the deranged shit that Trump does. Like trying to start wars with Iran and Venezuela and then practically demanding the Nobel peace prize.

The level of brain damage is real. When he speaks the intelligence literally drops in the room.
Man, the real nazis of old (the third reich) must be so jealous they never figured to invent a fake mental illness to prosecute nondesireables with.
Good old Roadkill F Kennedy. What else did the worms show you bud?
Show how much he knows, if he thinks her baby is in her placenta.
This is the guy in charge of medical advice for the United States. Lacking even basic scientific knowledge.
What do you expect from retired environmental lawyer / heroin addict?
Trump taking covid shot, shows that RFK is there for a spectacle, a distraction and no one in the administration takes his recommendations seriously.

I was skeptical that something as utterly deranged could be uttered in a room full of adults without hilarious laughter breaking out so I felt the need to dig a bit and corroborate, and found a bsky post from the same guy of the same content, with video.
jesus fucking christ 🫠
America is so cooked...
The worst part is many parts of the world can't even laugh anymore because the same playbook is running through their countries. I'm tired and we are so cooked.

If her baby is in the placenta you have some bigger problems than just needing paracetamol

Uneducated weirdo pretending to know science and medicine to bully people they don't like and grift everyone else calls other people strange, and he's in charge of the HHS
I have been paying attention for decades now and I'm not really surprised.
I went to an ivy league school... and lots and lots of my cohort were delusional morons who believed their own farts had magical powers. and the admin and professors were happy to tell the they totally were. and I would say their farts stunk and they would just become angry and harass the shit out of me.
Real life Ralph Wiggum "and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me" comment
Huge baby, strong baby; tears streaming from it's tiny baby eyes. And it looked at me and it said, "sir, please make her stop pounding Tylenol."

Such a bullshit. No one (pregnant or not and especially an associate professor) would "gobble" bottle of Tylenol even before their claim. Overdosing on it is not pretty.
Also whenever there's talk about Tylenol it reminds me of this:
I could see myself filling a bottle of tylenol with tic tacs and trying to sleight of hand them into my mouth in a fistfull in such a way it looked like I ate a bunch, tbf. Y'know for the lolz.

GOBBLING tylenol. downed a whole bottle on camera.
Gobbling Tylenol
Uh huh.
Gobbling means at least a good handful, right?
Acetaminophen has a rather steep curve where it gets toxic. A standard tablet is 500mg. I sometimes take a double at 1000mg, yet the daily recommended max dose is 4000, only four times that, after which toxic effects start coming. That's 8 tablets
This woman, if she exists at all, was likely "gobbling" a single tablet, which is pretty much harmless
