The reason to watch this video is because facebook and instagram are censoring it

If for no other reason (but let me give you 2 more!)

May 05, 2024

Now, you may not like RFK Jr or think he can win the presidential election. BUT you probably morally oppose and (dare I say) detest censorship. And if he really “can’t win,” then why is Meta so concerned about people hearing this 30 minute message from his campaign? Anyone who attempts to post the link to the video at whoisbobbykennedy.com gets a pop-up message that says, “this link goes against our community standards.”

For example (screenshot from X):

Now, I know many of us reader-types prefer a blogpost to a video because we read faster than people talk: it allows us to skim over the filler but slow down for important parts. So I offer you partial transcripts of prominent parts of the video in case you don’t want to watch the whole thing. But first, earlier I said there were three reasons to watch, in addition to, “on principle,” i.e. because meta wants you not to. The other two reasons to watch this video are because it shows what a sincere man — consistently sincere over decades of time — RFK has been as a person who regularly objected to abuse of power for a living as a lawyer who litigated on behalf of the little guy; and because you will see for yourself examples of how the media feted him back when he wasn’t a threat (spoiler: Oprah was definitely involved, at 13:44) compared to how they began to denigrate him once they decided he was a threat. (Just like Trump, yes.)

Bit 1: A quote from an interview, starting at 18:42, where Jay Carson, campaign advisor to Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton and others, reveals step by step the playbook used by corporations to discredit whistleblowers and by media/government to discredit anyone who questions the status quo:

“First, they attack you broadly …. They say you’re lying, and it’s ferocious.

But if you keep on moving after that, they move on to character assassination.

They dig up everything bad in your past and leak it to the press.

They try to embarrass you. They try to make you say, this fight isn’t worth what it’s costing me, and you quit.

But if that doesn’t stop you, and it stops most people but it didn’t stop Bobby, they say you’re a liar.

If liar doesn’t work, they say you’re an anti-semite and a racist. No two slurs In America are worse than those … except crazy.

Crazy or kook or crank or nut job are their mainstays, that’s their nuclear option.

Because if they can get everyone to dismiss you as a wacko nut job … everything you say is suspect, and then they can get back to selling whatever thing it is you said might not be safe.

A lot of times, the ‘crazy person’ is just someone brave enough to speak truth to power.”

(Film cuts to RFK)

RFK Jr: “I lost a lot of friendships, I lost my jobs at the environmental groups, I lost relationships that I’d built over 50 years of life, I had close friends who just told me they couldn’t be my friend anymore.

I just thought it was important.”

Wow.

A lot of times, the ‘crazy person’ is just someone brave enough to speak truth to power.

Bit 2: Chief Matthew Coon Come, Chief of the Assembly of First Nations from 2000-2003 says at 28:59:

“If I were to take on the corruption at the highest level of governments, I would want him in my corner … the Native name I would give Bobby would be One Who Sees the Mountain and Moves it.”

Bit 3: At the end, (27:35) RFK is asked by someone off camera, “Why are you doing this?”

RFK Jr: “Doing what?”

Off camera: “Running for President.”

RFK Jr: “Because I don’t like the way the country is going. I don’t like the wars. I don’t like the censorship. I don’t like the addiction to war. Both political parties are now the war party. I don’t like the corporate capture of our government: corrupt merger of state and corporate power. And I think I’m in a unique position to be able to unravel it.”

Bit 4: A one liner at 15:32 from Gavin deBecker (renowned security consultant, author of “the Gift of Fear,” and head of RFK’s security for his campaign):

“Way before any presidential campaign, I was struck by seeing somebody [RFK Jr] who was willing to take on fights against weapons manufacturers that are the biggest lobbyists in DC and then Big Pharma which has now become the biggest lobbyist in DC. When I first heard of him, he was working against mercury in fish. No one ever said he was anti-fish. But as soon as he was interested in getting mercury out of childhood vaccines, then suddenly he’s anti-vaccine.”

Bit 5: This screenshot, at 14:40, from “the minutes of a private meeting that CDC had where they acknowledged the signals in the data between exposure to vaccines containing mercury and autism,” information which was never made public.

And a screenshot of a remark by a doctor who was there, at 14:47:

Bit 6: These magazine covers, starting at 20:47, from Vanity Fair and the New Yorker back when they loved Bobby …

… compared to these from 2023.

Whatever we may think of his actual chances at winning, the fact that very powerful people and organizations want Robert Kennedy, Jr to be unable to SPEAK (never mind run for office!) “says” it all.
