A few of the things that the Koch brothers have fought against: - Interventionist Wars - Militarization of the Police - Long sentences for non-violent crimes If you are celebrating David Koch's death you don't care about the issues. You are just brainwashed.

He also fought against enacting any climate policy at all, which dwarfs the impact of the rest by many orders of magnitude.

If you are going to hate anyone in the political realm because they disagree with you on one issue good luck moving anything forward. Also Koch believed in free market solutions to climate change not government regulated ones and honestly that's probably the right view.

These aren't mutually exclusive. It's entirely possible to hold a self-serving "position" against global wars in part, perhaps in large part, because you don't want to be blown up. I don't see anything in that piece that defends the claim you're making.

Which claim? That they funded climate change denial? Or that they had fossil fuel interests to protect?

Also let’s be real: we’re not talking about holding just any position out of self-interest. I agree. That’s fine. We’re talking about spending massive amounts of money on propaganda that has had unconscionable impact.

The claim you made is that they haven't been motivated by libertarianism/a position on free markets.
