I’ve found the reaction to all this very telling. of course he’s wrong about some things because if you have an opinion on *everything*, as you tend to have to when you run for president, of course some of it will be wrong.

the regime is freaking out not because of the output here but the throughput: it’s not that he gets things wrong that they hate, it’s that he thinks for himself. he isn’t captured by borg financial interests. they are gaslighting everybody about the symptoms to try to deflect from the cause.

the real issue he is drawing attention to is whether or not you are allowed to think for yourself in the first place. if you are, it doesn’t matter that he might be wrong - as he would undoubtedly agree and encourage! but if you aren’t, then any narrative dissent must be crushed. and note I didn’t say “falsehood” - what I am pointing to is more like what is now euphemistically called “misinformation”.

to a thinking person, even the concept of “misinformation” as opposed to “falsehood” is offensive. to a regime that takes the concept of misinformation seriously, thinking people are offensive. RFK is appealing to thinking people and, in doing so, showing them that it’s okay to think.

no, he's narratively recalling camelot and invoking the "better days" rhetoric, just repackaged as blue dog fodder. i think rfkjr is an important thinker, and an interesting conversationalist, and would be a fascinating political candidate. his role is to litigate the off-rails narratives of the last 2 decades and appeal to "better angels" - i do not believe he's willingly or seriously running for president.

You hit the nail on the head.

I like a majority of what RFK Jr says, but he has shared articles about abolishing the 2A and is a big proponent of gun control. He has also said people who deny the established climate narrative should be jailed or even given the death penalty.

I doubt that lol but hey I could be wrong
