Trofim Lysenko would have been an unknown destitute quack if it wasn’t for Stalin et all. Pinning it all on Lysenko is extremely convenient. And whitewashes the vanguard of all responsibility. Stalin put Lysenko as the head of agriculture for the Soviet Union and their universities because he liked the sound of Lysenko’s quack theories. Despite his theories being unsound. Vavilov being stripped of his titles and positions and being sent to Siberia to die.

RFK Jr. is literally the modern-day analog to Lysenko. And both of them are post turtles. Neither of them got into positions that high on their own.
