📌 RFK Jr. exposes the terrifying incentives driving gain-of-function research

Tucker Carlson and RFK Jr:
The line between groundbreaking science and catastrophic hubris has been crossed. In a stunning commentary, RFK Jr. exposes the terrifying professional incentives driving gain-of-function research.

He highlights a critical case: scientists who actively engineered an avian flu virus with mammalian transmissibility. Why? For career advancement, funding, and the prestige of being first. They then published their blueprint, bragging of a breakthrough that could wipe out humanity.

RFK Jr. identifies a disturbing "God complex" within this field—a pursuit of omnipotence through the creation of existential threats. This isn't just science; it's a dangerous game played with the fate of our species, where the ultimate price for professional glory is a pandemic.

The question remains: Why would anyone invite such a catastrophe? It's a warning we can no longer afford to ignore.
