RFK, Jr.

Post by BoSoxGal »

This is a long read - 10-15 min? - but interesting - or more so, troubling.

This guy spoke at my university spring of my last year when I was finishing my MA. I’d already been accepted to law schools so he wasn’t a core inspiration, but seeing him - and Ralph Nader too that spring - speak about their public interest law work basically cemented my path through law school and career. It’s shocking to see where he’s evolved to - truly heartsickening given the prior good works and the legacy he’s trading on.

“He’s really the ringleader of the misinformation campaign.”




For those who read it - do you think it’s a grift? Or does a guy who once litigated environmental science seriously believe what he’s asserting?

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

I have not read the piece you linked but I too have been astounded by what someone I once held in high regard has evolved to.
