    And yet RFK doesn’t think the most important one is actually the most important. And uses denialist talking points. And doesn’t challenge the person in the room with him when he also uses denialist talking points.

      You keep repeating this as if that will make it true. But you literally linked to a video where he leads by clarifying that the crisis is real in response to Peterson’s rhetoric.

      And yet RFK doesn’t think the most important one is actually the most important.

      You’re just making this up to try to put words in his mouth. This is harmful for actually finding solutions. Again, he has described it as an “existential” problem. RFK Jr is trying to address concerns, because that’s necessary when people have concerns, but you’d rather pretend other concerns don’t exist as if that were a way to achieve anything.

        Yes, you can clarify something is real and still diminish it by using denialist talking points. It’s something many of them do. I’m amazed you don’t know that. Peterson himself does it all the time.

        And I’m not making anything up. I listened to the words he said.
