RFK jr reminds me of Mother Theresa - steadfastly certain of his rightness and while perpetrating the most terrible suffering through his actions. He is the worst kind of evil - stubborn and blind to the demonstrable suffering and harm he is causing.
I clearly need to learn about Mother Theresa.
It's was her certainty in a fucked up belief set that makes her like RFK jr.
She allowed the sick to suffer and die because it was god's will they should. She fed and housed the sick for her own salvation but made them suffer for theirs. What did not occur to her, is to actually treat those in her care, or separate the ones with communicable diseases, or offer palliative care or other relief. People died in squalid conditions while Mother Theresa was being feted by dictators and raking in millions.
So that's why I compared RFK jr to her. They have certainty to their beliefs and they will not allow the evidence of their own eyes or those around shake that belief from them. And it is other people who suffer and die because of it.
Yeah and she was a fucking hypocrite because when she got sick she absolutely accepted medical care. Plus there's this.
What the fuck? I was expecting that link to be one singular failing, not ten. Holy shit.
MT, mostly hanged out with high society/elites
The evils of this world are that people like Mother Teresa who will make the poor and sick suffer for her own fetish of righteousness while living lavishly.
And millions will point at her and call her a saint for doing it so boldly.
To be fair, she was kind of being a paragon of church values there.
