When it comes to the left, you’ll often find the truth of any given matter in the negative spaces. By that, I mean that you can often deduce what they’re actually saying by paying attention to what they’re avoiding saying.
As I’ve written previously, the left is trying its absolute best to avoid talking about Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a man whose popularity is rapidly increasing on both sides of the aisle, and perhaps for similar reasons. For Republicans, Kennedy seems like a reasonable person that they can work with but would never vote for. For center-left Democrats — of which I suspect there are a lot more in the party than we think — if he became the new face of the Democrat Party it might start the ball rolling on a return to some sort of sanity as the extremists that have infected the Democrat Party are slowly forced back into the shadows by Democrat voters who’ve, up till recently, been too afraid to speak out.
This must be a very real possibility because the radical left and the people in charge at the DNC are doing what they can to stem the growing popularity of Kennedy.

But there’s something else lurking around in the negative and it occurred to me while I was watching the recent video by Tucker Carlson concerning Kennedy. As was highlighted by my fellow editor Susie Moore, Carlson seemed to speak on Kennedy with the same thoughts as I did. The left hates Kennedy because they fear him, and they dedicate a lot of time to making him seem like the devil incarnate and using similar accusations they used against every Republican that ever threatened them.

It was when Carlson got to the attempts at censoring Kennedy, which Moore describes:
That continues in 2023, with YouTube recently yanking Kennedy’s interview with Jordan Peterson, citing “misinformation.” Referring to Kennedy as the “most censored famous person in the United States,” Tucker points out that most Americans have likely heard more about Kennedy than from him, as few outlets will give him a platform. Of course, Joe Rogan famously interviewed Kennedy on his podcast last week, a portion of which Tucker shared, expressing his appreciation of Kennedy’s willingness to ask important questions — his curiosity. Tucker goes on to illustrate how these days, asking reasonable questions and describing what one sees right before them can draw the ire of the powers that be, who seemingly won’t tolerate any suggestion that everything is not, in fact, awesome.
Meanwhile, the left’s new favorite “scientist,” Peter Hotez, is pressuring Spotify to censor Kennedy’s appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast because of his commentary about COVID-19 vaccines. Spotify gave a “hard no” and the Rogan episode with Kennedy is still available to be heard. Moreover, Rogan offered to set up a debate between Hotez and Kennedy, offering Hotez $100,000 to his favorite charity if he did. That number has now swelled to $1 million as other people have offered to contribute.
Hotez scrambled to avoid accepting that challenge and was praised by MSNBC for doing so.
Watching all of this unfold, I couldn’t help but think about Santa Claus…stay with me, I’ll explain.
As small children, our parents, relatives, and indeed greater society go above and beyond to sell the magic of Christmas through the idea of a jolly man dressed in red who comes down your chimney and leaves gifts for you, but only if you’re good. Santa appears at parades, in malls, and on your television screen. There are movies about him. Children are encouraged to write letters to him. Our own government tracks Santa on radar and publishes the findings for families to view. Santa has an entire universe of lore around him that we tell to our children. We will go so far as to protect our children from the discovery that he’s a fictional character for as long as we can.
To this day, Santa Claus is one of the most successful ops in the history of the human race.
The only thing that could compete in the modern day is the vaccine hoax. Belief in it and submissive behavior confer certain rewards by the powers that be despite the fact that it’s clearly not real. People who have something to benefit from folks being fooled into believing in the vaccine will fight to keep the people’s belief in it strong and seek to punish people who denounce it. The government has tried forcing the vaccine on people and will release “data” that suggests it’s doing what it said it would do.
They fall short of saying that the vaccine will come down your chimney and give you gifts.
While an entire industry has been created around Santa Claus, the character is ultimately for children. The vaccine is made for (primarily) adults but they almost push it on you the way we push Santa on children, just with a lot less joy and Christmas spirit.
You’re being infantilized.
Thankfully there are people who are still willing to treat you like an adult. Spotify is at least making too much money from Rogan to dare mess with him. Twitter is the one major social media company allowing you to hear all sides and decide for yourself what you want to believe.
But otherwise, information is pushed on you, hidden from you, and altered to fit narratives in order to convince you that the magic of the vaccine is real.
It’s egregiously disrespectful. They look at you as a child that needs to be led by the nose because they believe they know what’s good for you and you’re an idiot that needs to be corrected in your daily life. You are being parented by liars and hucksters.
This is what they think of you, and it would behoove you to set the record straight as loudly and as often as you can.
