Nothing in your links support the claim that there is more money in those things than there is in big pharma! Not to mention the bad PR you get for supporting them....

Does the guy whose political campaign was "it's me, the guy who left a dead bear in Central Park (https://www.npr.org/2024/08/05/nx-s1-5063939/rfk-jr-central-...), deliberately swam in raw sewage (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/12/us/politics/rfk-jr-rock-c...) and who had a brainworm (https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/08/us/rfk-jr-brain-health-me...) that presumably died of malnourishment?" seem like someone concerned with bad PR?

Does he seem like the sort big pharma would go "yes, fund that guy, great spokesperson!" Someone who endorses misama theory over germ theory? https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2025/06/14/nx...

Why though? Why aren't they concerned about bad PR when they can make more money by doing good PR stuff..

You can say that they are really wrong. But then it becomes a subjective thing...

I mean, you can say that they truly believe in what they are trying to do, but they are very wrong (and stupid). But then it becomes a subjective thing...
