He maintains he invented email when he was like 14 years old.
He married Fran Drescher
He shits on RFK even though they're on the same side when it comes to vaccine and the Ukraine war.
Also Shiva is running for president even though I am pretty sure he isn't eligible since he was born in India. He probably should return any campaign donations before he gets in trouble for fraud.
The claims which I think you are referring to are is RFK's views on climate change, vaccines, and the war in Ukraine.
First of all, most of my perspective on RFK's views are from RFK himself. I have seen a lot of what he has had to say and recently watched his conversation with Jordan Peterson which incidentally has been removed by YouTube. I've also followed Shiva for years.
I'd recommend you take a look but it's long. So I'll share my takeaways:
At one point RFK was staunchly pro climate change (in the establishment sense) and aligned with the apocalyptic climate narrative. In fact here was one of his more ridiculous views which I believe is no longer accurate:
"Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an environmental and anti-vaccine activist, once called for corporations and conservative groups that dispute climate change to be handed the "death penalty.""
Now he has a more nuanced view of climate change which I think its more reasonable. He believes the climate crisis is real but the the carbon orthodoxy that gets it wrong. He aligns with the likes of Bjorn Lomberg who takes a more measured view on climate change.
He has become more skeptical on vaccines in that he wrote books about it and was one of the loudest voices questioning the covid-19 vaccination. Lastly he changed his mind on Nato/Ukraine as he learned more about why we're there as well.
Look, I'm skeptical on some of RFK's positions. He is far from perfect. He continues to blindly and unequivocally support Israel and the billions of dollars of US aid. There aren't many presidential candidates that don't.
That being said, for an MIT multi-grad, Shiva can exceptionally short sighted. Not to mention to me he reeks of self-interest and disingenuousness.
Happy for you to change my mind, but I won't hold my breath.
Shiva might be nuts.

RFK is pro-green movement
He is definitely an environmentalist but I think I am the only one who actually watched his interviews based on the stupid comments in the thread.
