In light of Joe Rogan’s absurd challenge to Peter Hotez to debate anti-vaxxer crank Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on his podcast, we need someone to fire back an equivalent challenge: Kennedy (and, if he wants, Rogan) should submit an article for peer review at a legitimate journal. If they believe THE KONSPIRACY WILL AUTOMATICALLY REJECT THE ARTICLE, then release the submitted manuscript, the reviewers, response to reviewers, and the editorial decision. Let people decide if the reviewers were correct.

Of course, they won’t do this, but they should.
