(UPDATED) I got invited to join "Bob Kennedy Jr for President" Facebook group

The invitation came from a friend, not a good friend, but a guy I respect. We disagree on politics a bit and on economics a lot (my friend is quite a bit to the left of me; I'm a old-fashioned Keynesian).
I read through a few of the comments on the page. It's a relatively new group I think you saw it through a few of the comments which or to the effect of "Only you can save us" and such. They call him RFK Jr, despite Kennedy his whole life having always gone by Bob. In a fit of partisan childishness, I left a snarky comment about "the tyranny of science and medicine" which I assume will be deleted soon enough.
It's weird thinking about there being a snake in our garden when so much is riding on this next election. But that's democracy I'm pretty comfortable allowing the process to run itself out. Kennedy's ideas get my scorn, but I really don't want to get personal about it. I want as many deluded radicals as possible to be in the mood to say in November '24 "I will gladly take a moderate status code Democrat over a fascist any day of the week."
Maybe I'll go back and delete my comment. I don't think Americans are very good at good natured kidding between political rivals anymore.

Update: I went back to delete the sarcasm but sadly the admins had beaten to the punch. I did, however, spot this gem of a video link from YouTube:

I only provide the leak because, no, I'm not making this up. 😆😆😆🤪
