A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

RFK Jr. says America is terribly unhealthy. If you compare the US to, say, the UK the EU Australia, Japan, Canada, or any other developed country, he’s absolutely right. The difference is not vaccinations, though. Those countries all have vaccinations. The difference is universal healthcare.
