This clip aired on a Reason interview I liked. It shattered all hope that the Dems had a Plan B for the eventuality Biden might go the way of Justice Ginsburg and invite yet another National Socialist Anschluss.
RFK JR 2014: I think they should be enjoying three hots and a cot at the Hague, with all the other war criminals.
Q: What about politicians people who deny, who express skepticism…
RFK JR: They’re selling out the public trust. And, you know, I think those guys who are doing the Koch brothers’ bidding, and who–against all the evidence of the rational mind–are saying that Global Warming doesn’t exist, that they are contemptible human beings and that, you know, I wish that there were a law they you could punish under. I don’t think there’s a law you could punish those politicians under but, do I think the Koch Brothers should be punished for reckless endangerment.
Of course the guy tried to backpedal, pretend he didn’t mean what you saw him say, wave red herrings and embark on evasive divagations. But this Dem politician is clearly as blindly brainwashed about atmospheric physics, electrical energy, thermometers and chemistry as the Republican party at large is stolidly brainwashed about altered states and whether individual women can be pregnant, be individuals, and have their rights Constitutionally protected from coercive mystical aggression–all at the same time.

Both of these NASA graphs can’t be right, but Republicans will confess there were three gunmen shooting JFK and Connally before Dems even concede these charts ever existed–or that they are inconsistent. Yet Misanthropic Sharknado Climate Warmunism was already a thing when Kennedy was sworn in as President. Here’s a pic from a Soviet prophecy storyboard for a video on how a communist utopia would by the year 2017 put an end to greedy capitalism with its ghastly Second Amendment weapons.(link) Every time I link to the propaganda, the file is taken down, reposted without the English subtitles or disappears altogether. So you need to hunt for 2016 predictions in Soviet propaganda that shaped the thinking of RFK Junior’s generation. Here the latest (hurry up and look) link to collectivist utopia v. capitalist weapons menacing all existence (link)
Good reading: U.S.S. Seawolf, Submarine Raider of the Pacific by Frank, Horan and Eckberg (link) In 1916 submarines brought drugs all the way across the Atlantic for sale in neutral America. Prohibitionist America did not join the League of Nations or Treaty of Versailles, but manipulated Europeans into using treaty prohibitionism to weaken German and Japanese drug market hegemony in July 1931. Ten years and five months later, bombs and torpedoes fell on Pearl Harbor as Japanese midget submarines surveyed the attack. America had submarines of its own in the Pacific. This is the engaging and idiomatic story of just such a sub. One of its first missions was to transport tonnes of ammunition to beleaguered islands in the Philippines where no Allied planes could land.
Get the big picture in Prohibition and The Crash on Amazon Kindle in two languages. After this you’ll be able to explain to economists exactly how fanaticism and loss of freedom wrecked the U.S. economy.
