| Description | Dear readers,
I’ve been reluctant to write about RFK Jr. because he and the people who hype him up are relentlessly full of **** and I’m unsure there’s any productive way to talk about him.
What’s wrong with him is obvious: he is — as he has been for his entire career — a lunatic and a crank. He not only believes that vaccines cause autism; he believes that antidepressants have driven the surge in mass shootings; that poppers cause AIDS; that herbicides cause children to be gay or transgender; that wifi causes “leaky brain,” whatever that is; that cellular signals cause cancer and “break” our DNA; and that 5G signals in particular are an instrument in a plot to “harvest our data and control our behavior.” (As David Remnick writes, he’s the sort of person you’d try to avoid talking to on a train.) Even as a purported climate activist, his primary achievement is that he fought, successfully, to close the Indian Point nuclear power station outside New York, thus ensuring that carbon emissions from electricity generation would go up. |
