RFK Jr. claims climate change is used to push for “totalitarian controls.”

Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has made some bold claims about climate change and its exploitation by mega billionaires. He believes that climate-related issues are being used as an excuse to enforce “totalitarian controls” over society.

Exploitation by Mega Billionaires

According to Kennedy, wealthy individuals like Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates are exploiting climate and pollution issues to push their own agendas. He believes that the same way COVID was used to enforce top-down totalitarian controls on society, climate change is being used to strip mine the wealth of the poor and enrich billionaires.

• Kennedy claims that the guys promoting engineering solutions for climate change are the same people who own the patents for those solutions.
• He believes that this exploitation has given climate chaos a bad name and that people now see it as just another crisis being used to enrich billionaires.

Free Market Capitalism

Kennedy has been a long-time environmental activist and lawyer. He believes that the most important solution for environmental issues is not top-down controls, but free market capitalism. He has been advocating for this solution for over 40 years and has been consistent in his stance.

Corporate Punishment

In a 2014 blog post, Kennedy wrote that corporations and other groups that sponsor climate lies should face punishment. He believes that they should be given the death penalty for deliberately, purposefully, maliciously, and systematically sponsoring climate lies. However, he supports the First Amendment, which allows citizens to spew far more vile lies without legal consequence.

Exploitation by World Economic Forum

Kennedy also believes that the World Economic Forum is exploiting climate-related policies to produce a totalitarian society. He thinks that the group is using climate change as an excuse to push their own agendas.

• The Davos, Switzerland-based group hosts annual meetings each year that include world leaders and top business executives.
• In January, speakers at the forum said that governments and businesses should pursue a “net-zero” policy around carbon emissions and that people don’t need cars.

Crony Capitalism

Kennedy believes that what we have in this country now is not free market capitalism, but corporate crony capitalism. He thinks that it’s a cushy kind of socialism for the rich and a brutal, barbaric, merciless capitalism for the poor.

Kennedy filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to launch his 2024 bid on April 5. He’s joining self-help writer Marianne Williamson as well as President Joe Biden, who announced his re-election campaign.
