YouTube says it removed Jordan Peterson interview of RFK Jr. for violating vaccine policy
Social media giant YouTube took down an interview of Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claiming that chemicals in the water are turning kids transgender.
On Sunday, both Kennedy and podcast host Jordan Peterson tweeted that the video-sharing website had taken down their interview from an episode of Peterson’s show and accused the social media platform of censorship and interfering with a presidential campaign.
“What do you think… Should social media platforms censor presidential candidates?” Kennedy asked on Twitter. “My conversation with [Peterson] was deleted by [YouTube].”
“Luckily you can watch it here on [Twitter] (thank you [Elon Musk]),” Kennedy added, going off in a Twitter thread.
“Maybe you can help me figure out what ‘misinformation’ was in this interview,” Kennedy tweeted.
“Now [YouTube] has taken upon itself to actively interfere with a presidential election campaign,” Peterson tweeted.
Kennedy’s campaign told Fox News Digital that although “vaccines are not a major priority for Mr. Kennedy in this campaign, he will be happy to debate the issue with any prominent proponent of the conventional view.”
“Even so, there are troubling indications in published research of serious safety issues with vaccines in general, but especially the Covid shots,” they continued.
“The real issue for Mr. Kennedy is regulatory capture and corporate influence over government. He is in favor of properly conducted, unbiased, transparent safety testing of all vaccines.
A Google spokesperson told Fox News Digital YouTube “removed a video from the Jordan Peterson channel for violating YouTube’s general vaccine misinformation policy, which prohibits content that alleges that vaccines cause chronic side effects, outside of rare side effects that are recognized by health authorities.”

Youtube and other social media platforms that try to control speech like this are afraid. Not for themselves, mind you - they are righteous and pure in their intentions, and they would never be swayed by anything that doesn't come from "authoritative sources." They are afraid for the masses, who cannot be trusted to make rational decisions in light of all evidence and argument. You see, the masses are easily led astray by nefarious actors - so silencing these nefarious actors is the only possible course of action!
