In the summer of 2021 I pondered the question as to whether Covid vaccine hesitancy among maga-types would metastasize to other vaccines and to public health more generally. It went over like a fart in church.

The whole thread is interesting to read. Posters making fun of anti-vaxxers who today would stay quiet and look at their shoes, if not justify it outright.
However you're reading that prior conversation, and the conclusions you're drawing from it, are difficult to guess unless you use your words and articulate it. I get you're claiming some form of victory, but it would be nice to hear you explain that victory for those of us who don't think and feel like you do about all things Trump-related.

Well obviously RFK Jr’s selection as Trump’s Health Secretary nominee answered my original question about as strongly in the affirmative as one could imagine.
But the real point of the thread and the title is in reference to the last two sentences in my post.
DON’T let them eat cake.

Your real point remains a mystery. You gestured towards posters who had an attitude then that they no longer have, but I sure don't know what you're talking about, skimming the thread. Maybe you should name the poster(s), assuming they're still around, and give them a chance to discuss it with you.

I think his most recent comment is something like ‘I’m not anti-vax, I’m just against all the existing vaccines.’
That is anti-vaxx by any reasonable definition. He puts lipstick on the pig sometimes but with friendly audiences it comes off and he’ll describe how he approaches strangers with babies and implores them not to vaccinate their kids.
DON’T let them eat cake.

He’s also a lawyer and pretty good at getting his point across without crossing the line into defamation.

Could somebody please link me to an RFK policy position on vaccines?

Again it depends on the audience. Normies or cranks? The message changes.

This is a decent start. It’s his organization. They changed the name from ‘World Mercury Project’ to something a little more general sounding.
But read the exec staff bios and it’s clear what animates them.

His CEO’s bio is a perfect example of getting the point across without engaging in defamation. Behold:
As Chief Executive Officer of Children’s Health Defense, Mary Holland has been involved in the vaccine choice and health freedom movement for more than two decades. “Once I learned about the extreme liability protection that industry and healthcare providers enjoy and the suppression of accurate science and information about vaccine risk and injury, I understood the need for immediate, radical systemic change. I’ve been devoted to that change ever since.”
Like CHD, Holland seeks to end the epidemic of chronic childhood diseases, hold those responsible accountable, and create safeguards so that these epidemics never happen again. Through its education, advocacy, litigation and research, CHD challenges federal and state governments, pharmaceutical companies, corporations and corrupt regulatory agencies to end the practices that are harming children’s health. In the age of COVID, CHD’s mission to protect health, especially infants’ and children’s health, has never been more important.
They don’t come right out and say that the vaccines cause chronic illness in kids. But their point isn’t lost on the reader.

So, we're not quite sure what his position is?
I bet you’ll ultimately be happy when he’s not confirmed because part of you, maybe subconsciously, must resent the fact that Trump has made you feel the need to sane-wash RFK Jr.
