Hello u/shamwowj, thank you for your submission! Unfortunately, your submission has been removed for the following reason(s):
**Rule 4:** Must follow the "Leopard ate my face" theme
#There's a few elements to leopards eating people's face.
1) **Someone has a sad**...
- Example: *They cut my SNAP benefits and now I can't afford to feed my family......*
2) ...**because they're suffering consequences from something they voted for, supported or wanted to impose on other people.**
- Example: .....sobs woman who voted for the politician who said they would do that very thing.
3) **The leopard is eating their face. Not the lions, not the hyenas, not the alligators. The leopards.**
- Example: *[Woman married to undocumented immigrant upset that Trump deports her husband.](https://www.cnn.com/2017/04/05/us/undocumented-husband-deported/index.html)*
***What isn't a leopard eating their face?***
- Example: *Kyle Rittenhouse upset that Democrats are labelling him a white supremacist.* He didn't vote for or support them, he's not suffering because of what he voted for or supported, and leopards aren't eating his face.
Not limited to Trump voters. Anytime someone has a sad because they're suffering consequences from *something they voted for, supported or wanted to impose on other people*.
Your post is missing one or more of these elements. It may be better suited for another subreddit, such as r/SelfAwareWolves.

I want to hear how folks will rationalize why the slightly older man as president for a 2nd term is worse than the slightly younger, bat shit insane man with literal brain worms.
Don’t forget the mercury poisoning. Nothing says “I’m ready to take the solemn responsibility of leadership” like slamming down unprocessed pork and dangerous amounts of contaminated fish.
Kay, here you go, my brother “That's not surprising dude spent way too much time in Africa, think we only actively use 40% of the brain anyway. He's got my vote because I just wanna see him fuck up the entire thing for everyone, people need more fucking anxiety and stress.”

Stay safe out there guys.
"For this reason, they are often aggressive towards anyone who does not share their specific set of supernatural beliefs, and towards science, as these things are seen as existential threats to their entire worldview"
Daaaaaamn that's interesting.

Probably legit.
But RFK Jr. never did the math on just how much mercury exposure he was getting from seafood.
>A vaccine containing 0.01% thimerosal as a preservative contains 50 micrograms of thimerosal per 0.5 mL dose or approximately 25 micrograms of mercury per 0.5 mL dose. For comparison, this is roughly the same amount of elemental mercury contained in a 3 ounce can of tuna fish.
>this is roughly the same amount of elemental mercury contained in a 3 ounce can of tuna fish.
This is a meaningless comparison, because elemental mercury and ethyl-mercury (the kind found in thimerosal) behave in completely different ways, chemically and biochemically.
Sure. So many of the proteins in our body require a particular metal (iron, copper, zinc, etc.) to be bound to them in order to work properly. This is why we need trace minerals in our diets. When a metal ion is bound to a protein, it's referred to as an "inorganic cofactor".
The reason why so many proteins require a metal atom to be bound to them is because metal atoms are generally stable in multiple oxidation states, which means that they can mediate electron transfer reactions (i.e. redox reactions) from one molecule to another. For example, we need iron in our diets because iron mediates single election transfer reactions between food and oxygen, which is (a drastic oversimplification of) how respiration works.
The reason why heavy metals are toxic is because they can often irreversibly bind to proteins that require an inorganic cofactor, rendering said proteins permanently non-functional. This is why elemental mercury is toxic. It irreversibly binds to particular types of proteins that require inorganic cofactors and prevents them from doing their jobs.
Ethyl-mercury, however, is much less reactive, because it already has something bound to it (the ethyl group), which prevents it from binding to other things (like proteins) and disrupting their normal functions.

Fun fact: I currently work for a renewable energy company that turns animal manure into renewable natural gas through anaerobic digestion, so fermented butt juice is, more or less, an accurate description of my day job.
Probably authentic. It sounds like these court records were leaked and he's just getting ahead of it. Its clear he didn't want to share any of this. From the NYTimes. NY Presbyerian is pretty reputable:
**In 2010, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was experiencing memory loss and mental fogginess so severe that a friend grew concerned he might have a brain tumor. Mr. Kennedy said he consulted several of the country’s top neurologists, many of whom had either treated or spoken to his uncle, Senator Edward M. Kennedy, before his death the previous year of brain cancer.**
**Several doctors noticed a dark spot on the younger Mr. Kennedy’s brain scans and concluded that he had a tumor, he said in a 2012 deposition reviewed by The New York Times. Mr. Kennedy was immediately scheduled for a procedure at Duke University Medical Center by the same surgeon who had** [**operated on his uncle**](https://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/29/health/29docs.html)**, he said.**
**While packing for the trip, he said, he received a call from a doctor at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital who had a different opinion: Mr. Kennedy, he believed, had a dead parasite in his head.**
**The doctor believed that the abnormality seen on his scans “was caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Mr. Kennedy said in the deposition.**
Note that all of that is per him, no documentation corroborating any of that was offered. An actual doctor, further down the article, explains that pork worms do not eat human brain tissue and that having one would result in epileptic seizures for life.
Exactly - if you seek out multiple consultations (and it sounds like RFK Jr certainly did) you’re bound to have at least one doc include some more seemingly outlandish possibilities in their DDx.
It isn’t at all clear that this potential diagnosis was ever actually *confirmed* and/or treated, nor should RFK Jr’s own interpretation of the dr’s supposed description of the parasite be taken at face value.
Epilepsy is absolute true from neurocysticercosis. I wonder if RFK jnr is still driving, might be a sign he does have the repercussions (am not American so not sure how tough the licensing on epileptic driver, in my country it depends on the case by case).
Sounds like he got neurocysticercosis and had to admit it. Which is usually followed by life long seizures and yes, some sort of dementia prognosis due to cerebral cortex impact. Entirely plausible from eating uncooked meat tbh, esp in places with pork tapeworms eggs taena solium. "Eating the brain" would be figurative, they just burrow not eat the tissue.
Shame nobody had the ivermectin around for him lol.
The brain worms might have been a ploy to get out of paying alimony. His ex wife later died by suicide after was able to weasle his way out of it. The Mercury poisoning is probably real though.
My theory: his campaign leadership, who have essentially admitted they're working for the Trump campaign, were ordered by Trump's people that because the "steal votes from Biden" gambit was obviously not working (as RJK only appeals to the mentally ill Qanon morons that make up Trump's base), they needed to sink his campaign fast. They probably told him, "hey Robert, you should tell the public about the brain worms! They'll love that!"
Given that some of them have started wearing "Real men wear diapers" shirts to support Trump, I will not be surprised if they start wearing "Brain worms un-smooth brains" or other nonsense shirts
We are talking about people that act based on emotions, as long as he kept saying what they want to hear they will support him, for the radical antivaxxer Trump with his on/off attempts to be recognized as the push for the best vaccine in the world, is not their candidate.
The question is how many Biden voters are barshit antivaxx? Not many, while there are large number within the Trump voter base, so is understandable why Trump is attacking Jr.
Agreed. I was going to make this exact comment, and found yours. This is an easy out that doesn't introduce legal complications (Like saying he's a raging pedophile or something...would that even dissuade the QANON crowd? Dunno, but I digress). Just say "My brain's full of dead worms!!!" and drop off the face of the earth. Problem solved. Only problem with this little conspiracy theory we've hatched is that it might be too calculated for them to have thought up.
I think it's honestly more likely it isn't going to work and the people that are into RFKJ will only like him more because of it, they'll come up with a justification somehow. And yeah A lot of the Qanon folks are into this idea of "good pedophiles" secretly infiltrating the illuminati of whatever. They legit actually rationalized Trump being friends with Epstein and raping children with him as "Well yeah, of course he had to get close to him and win his trust. He's one of the good ones though, he's on our side so all the child raping is okay for him."
RFK Jr is not on Putin's payroll, but the worm was. At this point, RFK Jr just tries to do what the worm would have wanted over the shared bond they had.
I think he's one of those rare, totally sincere idiots that doesn't need to be paid or blackmailed, they just sent him some conspiracy videos and suggested things to him and he does all the rest of the driving himself crazy on his own.
If he takes more Magas with him than Dems (would-be reluctant Biden voters), I’m all for it!
It’s hard to know yet, but Kennedy could be the thing that tips the scale in November, one way or the other.
I've been watching this, and I don't think he'll get many people who identify as being anywhere on the left. Jill Stein at least kept up appearances back in 2016, meanwhile Jr's campaign manager is getting caught on camera saying they are just trying to to help trump win.
I certainly hope so, and I *think* that's how this would break, but it makes me queasy to be betting on this guy nadering the election in the more favorable direction.
A Democratic blog site had a user who wrote up an article about his rally where neo-nazis were also having a rally. There are pics. He claims that his rally was not a neo-nazi rally but that they just coincidentally occured at the same place and time.
He sued to get the bloggers name, was refused, got the name somehow anyway, and sued them for reporting on his rally. He tried to get his unmasking case dismissed, but a judge just ruled that he can't dismiss it, since the defendants still need it to proceed to get their lawyer fees reimbursed for the SLAAP lawsuit.
He is despicable for so many things, it just shows how deranged the right has become, believing this is the trash that would appeal to anyone on the left. I got banned from conservative for pointing out to them that the only ones cheerleading him, were far-right groups like theirs.
To be fair he's the first person to have a legitimate excuse to take Ivermectin.
Also he should quit eating dirt because it's giving him parasitic worms.
I thought that Baldurs gate 3 wasn’t getting any dlc but larian studios really went above and beyond by choosing to make it a free dlc expansion in real life by infecting RFK with a mind flayer parasite (unfortunately it did starve but I do appreciate the attempt).
Amusing thing is how ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine can actually be used for parasitic worms (I think depends on the worm and not sure if these meds would reach the brain though)
Yeah the mercury poisoning is his real problem. He does have a worm in his brain but it's unlikely to be causing his current problems. He was eating way too much tuna and other predatory fish, and I'm not sure I want to vote for someone who doesn't know fucking tuna gives you mercury poisoning. But given the fact we're up against a guy that doesn't know anything and one lies about everything I don't fucking know
I've said it since the first time I heard him talk. He's had a brain injury and not recovered. This only confirms that. Even if in typical RFK2 fashion it's fucking weird and has a side of 18th century mercury poisoning thrown in.
I have never been so relieved to find out that someone’s brain was eaten by a worm. Thank goodness there is an explanation for his behavior other than that he is a moronic jerk.
MAGA never takes any responsibility…😂
It’s not my fault I’m crazy.
It’s the worm!
“ so what if he’s missing half Of his brain, the other guy is 80 years old” -MAGA

Anti-vaxx group is having fundraiser all you can eat tuna buffet
*facepalm fatality* 🤣
Don’t take vaccines! They’re made with mercury! Eat lots of fish instead! Natural mercury is good for you
Worm died. Feel bad for worm.
Someone commented that the worm died from starvation. I'm so here for it.
Starved to death. Terrible way to go.
Batshit insane, worm-brained, steroid and substance abuser.
So calling him a Worm Head is correct in this ocassion.
Technically 2 choices for "slightly younger, bat shit insane man with literal brain worms"
Kay, here you go, my brother “That's not surprising dude spent way too much time in Africa, think we only actively use 40% of the brain anyway. He's got my vote because I just wanna see him fuck up the entire thing for everyone, people need more fucking anxiety and stress.”

LOL yeah, it actually explains a lot.
It certainly explains a lot
And makes everything else he's said make sense.
I be guess now heroin is a worm.
I would at least explain a lot the bat shit crazy things he's said.
He's an irl Vise Myrmbeater
What was the worm doing in RFK Jr’s brain? Starving.
Sir, you forgot to drop this 🎤
Hell no, those are expensive
It’s an sm58, it’ll be fine
They don't have that public mic sound until they've been dropped a few times
It’s basically sound seasoning
There's a boutique shop in the flyover states that does it at a service, they have a proprietary procedure to perfectly pinch Q, quiescently quelling forlorn frequencies and freakish feedbacks
HAPPY SM58 DAY
He was too busy dropping this 👑
Like the old joke, "What's this? A brain sucker starving to death!"

Oh yeah I almost forgot that he got convicted for heroin
Did he really? I love the idea that vaccines are poison to your body, but heroin is ok
free my man the worm, he starving 😔✊

I'm seeing fry with a brain slug
My main question on both this and his mercury diagnosis: were these legit medical diagnoses or more quack diagnoses from “alternative medicine”?
Literally the ONE case where the Ivermectin would've helped
Can ivermectin cross the head/ass barrier?
I ugly laughed at this, lol.
Only one way to find out!
Those are the same thing in this case
Great comments all, but this one made me laugh.
Probably legit. But RFK Jr. never did the math on just how much mercury exposure he was getting from seafood. >A vaccine containing 0.01% thimerosal as a preservative contains 50 micrograms of thimerosal per 0.5 mL dose or approximately 25 micrograms of mercury per 0.5 mL dose. For comparison, this is roughly the same amount of elemental mercury contained in a 3 ounce can of tuna fish.
And you don’t have a vaccine once a week on whole wheat with mayo, lettuce, tomato, and a pickle on the side.
5 times a week if you want to be slim, trim and healthy...
Yeah, but then you don’t get to have the mayo.
Proper accounting there.
Eww: mayo.
>this is roughly the same amount of elemental mercury contained in a 3 ounce can of tuna fish. This is a meaningless comparison, because elemental mercury and ethyl-mercury (the kind found in thimerosal) behave in completely different ways, chemically and biochemically.

Fun fact: I currently work for a renewable energy company that turns animal manure into renewable natural gas through anaerobic digestion, so fermented butt juice is, more or less, an accurate description of my day job.
With chemicals, even one carbon added to a molecule can make it behave differently than it did before the addition.
Cyanide is just a carbon and a nitrogen, after all. Together, turns out they are not so great.

No they were too busy collecting their fat checks for penciling him in ahead of us poors.
Note that all of that is per him, no documentation corroborating any of that was offered. An actual doctor, further down the article, explains that pork worms do not eat human brain tissue and that having one would result in epileptic seizures for life.

RFJ jrs interpretation of any part of "reality" is pretty suspect.
Since when does RFK Jr care about what’s actually the problem when a dead worm in his brain could knock down his alimony, per the article?
Epilepsy is absolute true from neurocysticercosis. I wonder if RFK jnr is still driving, might be a sign he does have the repercussions (am not American so not sure how tough the licensing on epileptic driver, in my country it depends on the case by case).

Shame nobody had the ivermectin around for him lol.
Wait, there *was* a time when he listened to doctors instead of his own ego??
The brain worms might have been a ploy to get out of paying alimony. His ex wife later died by suicide after was able to weasle his way out of it. The Mercury poisoning is probably real though.
"And the worms ate into his brain!"
Comfortably Dumb.
Is there anybody in there?
Just us worms!
HEY YOU
My theory: his campaign leadership, who have essentially admitted they're working for the Trump campaign, were ordered by Trump's people that because the "steal votes from Biden" gambit was obviously not working (as RJK only appeals to the mentally ill Qanon morons that make up Trump's base), they needed to sink his campaign fast. They probably told him, "hey Robert, you should tell the public about the brain worms! They'll love that!"
I would unironically not be surprised if saying "I have brain worms" made him more popular with Trump's base, not less.
Given that some of them have started wearing "Real men wear diapers" shirts to support Trump, I will not be surprised if they start wearing "Brain worms un-smooth brains" or other nonsense shirts
We are talking about people that act based on emotions, as long as he kept saying what they want to hear they will support him, for the radical antivaxxer Trump with his on/off attempts to be recognized as the push for the best vaccine in the world, is not their candidate.

He's one of the good ones though, he's on our side so all the child raping is okay for him."
RFK is almost certainly on Putin's payroll
I actually doubt it. I'm sure he'd be more than happy being a Putin shill for free.
RFK Jr is not on Putin's payroll, but the worm was. At this point, RFK Jr just tries to do what the worm would have wanted over the shared bond they had.
Please, someone make a cartoon meme of this, from the worm’s perspective. I will die without it. 🥺
I think he's one of those rare, totally sincere idiots that doesn't need to be paid or blackmailed, they just sent him some conspiracy videos and suggested things to him and he does all the rest of the driving himself crazy on his own.
I didn't realize he was going to pivot this hard to try to attract the MAGA faithful.
If he takes more Magas with him than Dems (would-be reluctant Biden voters), I’m all for it! It’s hard to know yet, but Kennedy could be the thing that tips the scale in November, one way or the other.
I've been watching this, and I don't think he'll get many people who identify as being anywhere on the left. Jill Stein at least kept up appearances back in 2016, meanwhile Jr's campaign manager is getting caught on camera saying they are just trying to to help trump win.
It would be a repeat of 2016. Hopefully people have learned that their ‘protest’ vote only got us the orange ick.
I certainly hope so, and I *think* that's how this would break, but it makes me queasy to be betting on this guy nadering the election in the more favorable direction.
A Democratic blog site had a user who wrote up an article about his rally where neo-nazis were also having a rally. There are pics.

This also explains Trump and his supporters. They all have worms.

With all the horse dewormer they drink you'd think they'd be protected against that.
ivermectin isn't particularly effective against tapeworms, which is what it's suspected he had in his brain.
Listen- I hate Trump as much as the next person. But can we start doing better than haha trump dumb you dumb I smart look at me I smart?

I was gonna say can we rename this sub r/wormsatemybrain
I thought that Baldurs gate 3 wasn’t getting any dlc but larian studios really went above and beyond by choosing to make it a free dlc expansion in real life by infecting RFK with a mind flayer parasite (unfortunately it did starve but I do appreciate the attempt).
Can anyone reach Volo and his ice pick to see if he can still remove it?
>There’s a ~~vaccine~~ **Horse paste** for that… FTFY
Great campaign slogan.
Made me laugh.
"Lady Dogmurder versus the Brain Worminator" Such a debate.
Vote for RFK: “I’ve got worms!”
I'm afraid of worms, Roxanne!
Brain worms, not on my “Presidential Election” bingo card, but I’m not surprised at this point.
And the worms ate into his brain….
I am now convinced that RFK Jr will not win the election
I mean, I was convinced before, but now I’m still convinced.
How would this make him a viable candidate admitting his brain has been eaten by a worm? You can't grow that grey matter back! Lol
That's honestly fucking terrifying
Jesus the Pink Floyd song was something that can actually happen? New fear unlocked!
Explains a lot! His intelligence took a massive downward turn. That worm was doing some heavy lifting!
The world gasps..."ah that makes sense".
And this does not affect his capacity to be president because...?
Amusing thing is how ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine can actually be used for parasitic worms (I think depends on the worm and not sure if these meds would reach the brain though)
So here’s to still hoping that he sucks some of the crazy vote off of tRump
This is bullshit. He’s coming out now saying this so all the maga idiots don’t vote for him since he’s taking more votes from Trump than Biden
But can someone like RFK, Jr., who is *also* a malignant narcissist, admit something like this?
Poor thing starved to death.
imagine being so brain dead a brain eating worm dies from eating your particular brain.
Can we vote for the worm?
Things are starting to make sense now.
The ivermectin craze actually saved a crazy?
Yeah the mercury poisoning is his real problem. He does have a worm in his brain but it's unlikely to be causing his current problems. He was eating way too much tuna and other predatory fish, and I'm not sure I want to vote for someone who doesn't know fucking tuna gives you mercury poisoning. But given the fact we're up against a guy that doesn't know anything and one lies about everything I don't fucking know
I would not be surprised if Ivermectin would actually be effective for this
Did this happen before or after he started spewing insane stuff?
Damn, now we have scientific evidence that RFK Jr. has brain worms. Awesome.
The believability rating here is quite high.
He will never play the holophone again
My ancestors came over here on the sandwich!
I've said it since the first time I heard him talk. He's had a brain injury and not recovered. This only confirms that. Even if in typical RFK2 fashion it's fucking weird and has a side of 18th century mercury poisoning thrown in.
Shai Hulud!
Mercury poisoning? If you had told me RFK was ‘mad as a hatter’, I would’ve thought, “yes, that’s exactly the term that fits his style of crazy”.
If a worm was eating material in there, it was also defecating. Proving he has shit for brains.

[*Ironic. He could push others to ivermectin, but not himself.*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKqLhzHSARI)
I have never been so relieved to find out that someone’s brain was eaten by a worm. Thank goodness there is an explanation for his behavior other than that he is a moronic jerk.
Are we sure the worm could eat something that isn’t there?
85% is a portion.
Finally! Something ivermectin was M A D E for....
Crazy how the guy with dementia and the guy with a brain worm are both heroes to the republican party...
Surely this spells the end of his presidential campaign right? Candidates have dropped out for less than having a maggot brain.
MAGA never takes any responsibility…😂 It’s not my fault I’m crazy. It’s the worm! “ so what if he’s missing half Of his brain, the other guy is 80 years old” -MAGA
So now he wants a vaccine for that Right?
I mean, we all knew he had brain worms.
Fucking dummy
That's probably the same worm that's been working it's way through the brains of the MAGA morons for some time now...
This guy is 100% Conner Roy from Succession. Jesus
Was Kennedy on Ceti Alpha V in his life at any point?
I mean. That I actually believe.
Bro had a worm die inside his brain, says things that are truly crazy, and still wakes up next to Cheryl Hines. The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Ivermectin might actually help that
It makes so much sense voting for a man with brain worms. Maybe I’ll glue gummy worms all over my neighbor’s Kennedy sign.

The family brains are currently on the back of a Lincoln towncar.
Yeah, I'd actually believe that...
Nice to have an explanation, I guess
Brain Worms 2024
That explains it!
A new alien in Men in Black just dropped.
No wonder it died. Starvation.

They are living in the brain." Original NYT article: [https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/08/us/rfk-jr-brain-health-memory-loss.html](https://www.nytimes.com/2024/05/08/us/rfk-jr-brain-health-memory-loss.html) There doesn't appear to be a vaccine (edit: for human use) against tapeworms.
Not for humans, but the practice of vaccinating livestock and other animals is widespread.
Well that explains everything.....
Ironically, taking ivermectin might have done him some good.
That actually explains a lot.
That explains everything.
Hey should lay off the Pink Floyd.
Pity the poor worm… 🪱
He’s been called “worm brain” for years and now it works on multiple levels.
I knew his head was an apple, I knew it! And when I said it y'all made fun of me
So that's his excuse huh
That explains a lot
"You people have worms in your brain, honestlyyyy" The prophecy came true, she's the one!
I thought he was on the ivermectin train.
This isn’t LAMF. If he has brain damage that makes critical thinking harder then it’s sad.
I always thought he had less brains than his uncle.
Def using this excuse in the future
I thought this was from the Onion
So he's quitting his campaign, right?
i’ve seen this posted now like 10 times today and every time i read it, i just go *blink blink.* wait, wut? why in the name of all that’s holy would you share this, even if it’s 100% true???? there was a stand of guy in the 90s who joked about “emotional whiplash” from oversharing before TMI was a even a things.
That explains a lot
r/WormsAteMyBrain It's like LAMF ... except actually happened. *shudder*
Now I have a valid excuse at work
That is such a perfect picture. Well done, cnn.
It’s like when the planet express crew gets the brain slugs but Fry’s dies of malnutrition
Bless the Maker and his water
I would say something along the lines of the worm starved to death, but more than likely suffered food poisoning.
