How can the country whose engineering skill and expertise managed to rocket their manufacturing economy into the stratosphere post WWI and into WWII, devolve into idiots like RFK Jr?

His uncle wanted to put people on the moon for fucks sake. What a terrible shame on his family to have this guy be one of the last representatives of the Kennedy name.

Hi, I would like to introduce you to Rupert Murdoch, the ruler of Newscorp and now Fox.

He tried to make sure most of his children wouldn't have any voting rights because they were too moderate compared to himself and his favorite son..

Fox is now its own separate entity, but it's still the Murdoch family on the board of it.

TL;DR: The reason the anglosphere, primarily the US, is so fucked, is actually an ozzie. Though he's been an American citizen for some 4 decades now.

Average Fox News host probably

Eh, agreed on some level, though it's actually also good proof of karma, which we all need. Shouldn't have lobotomized Rosemary, you sick fucks.

That's very true. I honestly didn't mean to minimize the Kennedy scandals. I should have chosen my words better.

[-] Goodmorningsunshine@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Nah, you still made a good point. This is absolutely a brilliant end both to the country and to the names of our best, and I'm here for it for whatever it's worth.

Let's not pull an RFK on this. There is no such thing. Karma is something made up to make people feel good. It doesn't exist.

They managed that because of immigrants who knew how to do it. Now they are leaking brains all over the place. They are somehow turning the tv shows Brain Dead and Happy! and the movie Idiocrazy into a reality.

All the smart Kennedys died one way or another. This is what was left.
