I can't claim that they mean this (for I have no who that is) but "mitochondrial challenge" reminds me of oxidative stress which does cause physical symptoms.

For some reason the thumbnail looked like a picture of a muppet. Could we please replace RFKJR with a muppet?
I'm not a scientist. What is a mitochondrial challenge?
Looks like the pseudoscience and supplement-selling name for a real set of medical conditions.

so hes a jedi now?
The mitochondial challenges are the powerhouse of the prison cell!
So he's hinting that he has now discovered where autism comes from, conveniently passed from the mother's side? Checks out..
I'd say that he's the one with obvious "mitochondrial challenges."
It's likely keto/carrnivore diet talk. Wouldn't be surprised, if the meat industry paid him to ban vegetarian diets in schools, alongside implementing a primarily animal based diet as baseline recommendation.
The worm demands kids with more ATP!
seems more likely he’s just seeing the utter despair of young humans realizing what kind of world they have been born into.
Tbf, the earth is still quite beautiful, its the homo sapiens, particularly the homo sapiens with other homo sapiens obeying their every command (politicians... military/police)
sure but i just read an article about the atlantic jet stream coming to a halt in the next 50-100 years, so i guess smoke em while you got em or some such phrase.
You read too much news. The news is designed by the ruling powers to make people lose hope and thus make people more easy to subjugate.
If you lived in WW2 or the US-Soviet Cold War, you would've thought the world was ending.
Hey you know that the Earth is eventually gonna get sucked into the sun (or flung out into space, not quite sure which is which) and everything here dies, right.
Everything is temporary.
One of the leading theories of the universe says everything will end in "heat death". So, with knowledge of this, do you just decide to give up since "everything is meaningless"?
Fuck that lol. We shouldn't be alive, the odda s arent even in out favor, but we are. So, TAKE THAT, STUPID UNIVERSE.
I'm alive and being alive is a rebellion, its rebellion against the universe.
P.S. I was born under the Once Child Policy of mainland China. I wasn't even supposed to be born, since my parents already had a child (aka: my older brother). But guess what, I'm alive. So, take that, CCP. Sometimes, I have existential thoughts about the "what if"s, like "what if I was never born". But you know what, fuck that. On this timeline, I'm alive. My life is inherently a rebellion against authoritarians, its a direct contradiction to the CCP's policies. I shouldn't be worrying about a timeline that never happened, and similarly, we have to stop resigning ourselves to a failure that hasn't happened yet, its never too late to try to fix it.
For some pespective, even if the all the polar ice caps melt and we detonated all nukes on earth, Earth would still be more habitable than, say, Mars.
So, do what you can to stop climate change, don't be too sad about it, everything eventually dies, just try your best. Be a rebel against the universe, be a rebel against authoritarians.
Do yourself a favor, and live long enough to see the demise of tyrants, and then keep on living to piss on their graves :D

Tbh, that argument doesn't really hold. Human lives are short and our experienced history is also incredibly short. "The past" as in the part of the past that we can actually experience as human beings is less than 100 years. We can't fathom how freaking long 1000 years is, even though it's just 40 generations, let alone something that might happen in 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 years (that's 106 zeroes).
Climate change related disasters are happening right now and will intensify a lot during the next 50-100 years. I likely live long enough to watch the climate keeling over, and my kids and my grandkids will live right through the worst of it. That's something entirely different than saying that the universe will suffer the heat death in a time frame so long that we can't even understand the number in any relevant context.
i mean a girl can hope.
Oof.
I think he means midichlorians.
I'm not weak in the force, I'm just midichlorianly challenged.
Mandalorians. Sith just hate mandalorians
Man, if I wasn't midichlorianly challenged, I would teach this guy a serious lesson.
Full on tweaking from the head of a government body. What an embarassing shitshow!
Oh my gosh. He's developed super powers!! /s
What's he gonna do? Send all those kids straight to the Pedo in the oval office?
Go eat more roadkill you weirdo
RFK had a book published some time back in which he reveals he doesn't believe in germ theory. Germ theory. This should have automatically disqualified him from doing anything that gives him decision making powers dealing with health, and medicine.
Dude is back on the H
Part of me wonders if this isnt another attack on women given mitochondrial DNA is passed solely through the mother....
Then again, I doubt anyone has a high school level understanding of biology in this administration. Or the attention span to parrot what some billionare Thiel think tank told them to say if it was longer than 5 minutes prior.
I like that he thinks airports are somehow a place you’ll see social connection and not just loads of tired bored people waiting.
hes mad he couldnt see the worms in people.
Insane "Goblin"
the only person who didn't learn mitochondria is the powerhouse of a cell in high school
He may be insane but he is tapping into parents fears and he can be pretty effective at it, to the ruin of all.
My fear is him.
If I had to pick someone suffering from mitochondrial challenges and inflammation based off appearances I'd choose RFK over a random child any time.
STFU you roided out goon.
and heroined out+ past infections of parasitic infections.
"I have cognitive problems, clearly"
— Same guy.
and ODed on heroin.
A man with no idea what the fuck he is talking about lol, sums up the current USA
