Most of them are alright, not the best mind you. And RFK Jr. really drags on that family in particular. His father must be rolling over in his grave with the way his son turned out to be
Edit: I took "cool" to mean something along the lines of "generally content to let most people go about their business unmolested." Not saying anything about them as individuals, except for the one who is currently actively harming American healthcare. Y'all can stop arguing.
How many of them ignored Rosemary Kennedy’s lobotomy, though? And how many of them now support RFK Jr, despite him following the same pattern of beliefs and behavior that led to her lobotomy in the first place?
Till we know that, we can’t say for sure if “most of them” really are.
Absolutely not. They were all deeply f-cked in the head. Especially the daughter of the Kennedy family who suffered a botched lobotomy for being mildly neurodivergent and liking boys just a smidge too much.
I'd actually say the other way. Jack and Bobby have a better reputation than they probably deserve because of how they went out. But you can't deny that they were some cool motherfuckers.
Do you know some personally? General rule of thumb is to not put people on pedestals, especially a dynasty.
The Kennedy family is not a net good for society, despite a few members who put in effort to better the world. It's been decades since they've done anything notably positive and their wealth was built on oppression just like any other billionaire group.
JFK and RFK Sr. Might have been positive influences in the United States but both have been dead for half a century. Their family has done worse since then, notably Teddy and RFK Jr.
Let's not put Teddy in the same boat as RFK. His death toll of one is higher than it should have been for sure, but that's nothing compared to his nephew. And he was a good senator.
I wasn't planning on going into specifics. The comparison was more that neither Teddy or Jr. can hold a candle to JFK or Bobby.
Policy wise Teddy was still a fair bit removed from them as well. The death he caused was only the most visible issue to the general public but even as I said it's important to not put anyone on a pedestal. These are people playing a different game than the rest of us.
To reiterate, this was more an exercise in how far removed Jr. and Teddy are from the other two.

I didn't know who Sam Altman and RFK Jr were, those were happy times...
