Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accused Bernie Sanders of taking millions from Big Pharma during a heated exchange, but Sanders refuted the claim, stating his donations came from workers, not corporate PACs.
Kennedy repeatedly insisted Sanders was the top recipient of pharmaceutical money in 2020, but financial data shows no corporate PAC contributions to Sanders.
Meanwhile, Kennedy has profited from anti-vaccine activism, earning millions from lawsuits and speaking fees.
The debate ended without Kennedy answering whether he would guarantee health care for all as HHS secretary.
RFK believes that he is above reproach. He is the delusional you get when you are born into massive wealth and privilege and think that you personally hit a home run. Completely surrounded by yes men his entire life. Trumpesk even.
-esque?
Probably, I don’t particularly care about spelling as long as my point is made
You should, or the point you make is we shouldn’t listen to your point because you are barely literate 🤷?
Any machine you can write a lemmy comment on can also spell check. Not checking means you don’t give a shit about what you write, so why should anyone else?
Point out the flaw in my argument? The whole point of writing is communication. If my message is received it did its job. I especially don’t give a shit about spelling on here because this is an anonymous account that I just shoot the breeze from.
But on a larger point codified grammar, spelling, etc are all just class signifiers that have literally nothing to do with clear communication or intelligence. Language is fluid by its very nature and spelling is as well. It behooves the reader to ignore things you find unintelligent based on superficial nonsense. Trying to understand a writers point based on their arguments is a much better strategy.
No no no.
I didn’t read your comment or your argument. I won’t because I don’t give a shit for one, and for two if you don’t give a shit enough to proofread it it’s obviously not worth the time.
You can descriptive grammar yourself right to the downvotes and don’t give a shit pile. Sorry bout ya. It’s “dumbesk”.
Cool dude!
You made my point:
And the rest of it makes no sense anyway because I don’t think you can define “behoove”.
I prefer -esk as it is less refined. A bit crude. Vulgar.
also fuck french
most the stupid ass spelling mistakes I make like this come from french loan words
Yes, and in my personal experience, I’ve found people who feel they are never wrong to be the most uninformed and unintelligent of all people. It’s so sad that these people also are the ones that somehow rise to power and influence.
It’s all about confidence. If you think you are infallible you will have perfect confidence no matter how wrong you are.
Conman is a shortened version of confidence man.
I encounter lots of people that are confidently incorrect.
We really need to stop thinking the Kennedy family are in any way special other than Joe who IRL is a nice guy who tries to stop people from freezing to death.
We really need to stop thinking of anyone as special and treat everyone with dignity and respect (excluding Nazis).
Yep one should never generalize anything that broad. Joe and maybe caroline. She at least sees the writing on the wall and has no desire to get involved with politics. Just living her own life
I never met her. I have met Joe a few dozen times campaigning for candidates and gay marriage in MA decades ago.
I can’t say I know a ton about her either. But I seem to remember in the early aughts there were some pushing for her to get involved in politics. And I know she’s come out against Robert Jr etc. And that’s at least two decent decisions. But Joe definitely sounds like a pretty stand-up guy.
