A complete list of every time RFK Jr. has compared vaccine mandates to the Holocaust

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. compared the threat of 5G cell service and so-called vaccine passports to the Third Reich on Sunday, in his latest instance of invoking the Holocaust while peddling conspiracies theories about vaccines.

“Even in Hitler’s Germany, you could cross the Alps into Switzerland, you can hide in the attic like Anne Frank did…Today the mechanisms are being put in place that will make it so none of us can run, none of us can hide,” Kennedy said in a speech at an anti-vaccination rally in Washington, D.C.

It wasn’t Kennedy’s first time making such a comparison, although it might have been his most inflammatory to date.

In 2015, the vocal anti-vaxxer, who is the son of Robert Kennedy and nephew of President John F. Kennedy, used the word “holocaust” to describe proposed legislation mandating vaccines for children, which he tied to autism.

I recall several about heroin addiction in his youth. Some bits of info go down my memory hole and just kind of stick around way after everyone else forgets.

was far worse than the pain and agony that Jesus felt on the cross. Then I had a Coke and felt much better.
