Because you got a little defensive when I mentioned that the people listening to him are Americans.
And there ARE many, many Americans who listen to him. Maybe not the absolute majority, but we wouldn’t be here in this situation if a sizable part of the US population wasn’t the type of person to fall for this kinda guy.
I didn’t get defensive. I was suggesting that saying “Americans listen to him” is a pointless generalization. Okay, so Americans are the ones who pay the most attention to someone who is a government official in America. Okay. Plenty of uninformed, non-scientific people elsewhere too. So I don’t know what your point about that was.
RFK’s ideas are not very novel and there are many people who champion those lines of thoughts besides him. He is not influential.
Wow calm down, no need to behave like a redditor. It’s just a comment thread.
Your comment certainly had a vibe of “yeah he says stupid stuff but nobody listens to him, it’s not that bad”.
Which is absolutely a defense for the guy
it doesn’t help is that it sounds like how an abused spouse defends their partner
it doesn’t help with either of those points that you go as far as making things up, as many Americans do indeed listen to him
Now, at the point where someone said that the other person failed at carrying the conversation, I do not know if there is anything to salvage, but here I go anyway.
That’s probably easiest for you, although I have doubts. Like being rich or smart, people who do that, well, they just do it instead of talking about how they are doing it. We’ll see

I don’t know how we got to you defending him now, but I think that’s a sign that we jumped the shark with this conversation.
