Whether\u2062 or not you took\u2062 the vaccine\u200c revealed a lot about\u200d you.<\/p>\n<p>How\u2064 you handled the squeeze placed on you to take the jab said even more. If you chose not to\u2064 take it altogether, you became a danger to the narrative. You also became formidable to those \u2063endeavoring to\u200d understand the \u201ccompliance\u201d landscape so to speak.<\/p>\n<p>Those, in fact, \u200cwere the leaders, people who could see their \u200bway through pressure to reason, ultimately\u2062 drawing \u2062their own\u2063 conclusions and acting upon them. Although society usually applauds and rewards those \u2063unique individuals who have this ability, it did quite the opposite for the dissenters in the case of the vaccine. Those who refused to take the jab became villainized and ostracized.<\/p>\n<p>They lost their jobs, their friends, their family,\u200d their community, and their voice \u2014 all stripped from them by purveyors of fear. \u2064They were called crazy\u200c and selfish simply because they couldn\u2019t rationalize putting something into their bodies which arrived with little testing.<\/p>\n<p>For that,\u200d they were punished.<\/p>\n<p>Among these many dissenters stands Rock and Roll Hall of Fame rapper Ice Cube. In a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, the two\u200b men took their conversation on the road,\u2062 revisiting Ice Cube\u2019s hometown of South Central Los Angeles. Their honest exchange got\u200d real very quickly.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Ep. 10 \u200bStay in your lane: our drive through South Central\u2063 LA with\u2064 Ice Cube.<\/p>\n<p>(next episode: Ice Cube \u200bsits down with us at his studio) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cUgCh2xccH\">pic.twitter.com\/cUgCh2xccH<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tucker Carlson (@TuckerCarlson) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TuckerCarlson\/status\/1683973828416884736?\">July 25, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Coming together over their joint distrust of the vaccine, Carlson coaxed Ice Cube into sharing the \u201cwhy\u201d behind his decision to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/watch-rapper-ice-cube-cancel-culture-target-working-trump-urges-people-fight-rights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">resist<\/a> the vaccine. Simply put, there wasn\u2019t\u200d enough data to leave Ice Cube feeling comfortable.\u2063 So he waited.<\/p>\n<p>This decision made him a problem for Hollywood, which was composed of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/elites-defect-vaccine-educated-americans-least-likely-get-jabbed-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">elites<\/a> who were all onboard with pushing the vax. When Ice Cube doubled-down on his stance, he lost an opportunity to \u2062act alongside Jack Black\u200b in the Sony film \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/11\/22\/ice-cube-furious-he-lost-9m-role-for-refusing-covid-vaccine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oh Hell No,<\/a>\u201d and with it went\u200c $9 million. \u201cProbably \u2063more,\u201d he remarked to Carlson.<\/p>\n<p>His defiance saved him his dignity\u2062 and, who knows, maybe even\u2063 his life. It also fueled the respect of his fans.<\/p>\n<p>Above all else, Ice Cube showed his children the importance of staying true to one\u2019s own morals, convictions and values.\u200b Just as he couldn\u2019t be bought, he expected the same from them, and his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/francis-fukuyama-end-of-putins-history-could-come-in-the-next-few-months\/\" title=\"Fukuyama predicts Putin's era may end soon.\">actions showed<\/a> it.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the entire interview, never once did \u200dIce Cube deny\u2062 that \u200cCOVID was real. Nor did he insult those that made a\u200b different \u200cdecision\u2063 than himself in handling the pandemic. He \u200bmerely pressed\u200b his right to medical freedom and personal choice. Both he believes in strongly.<\/p>\n<p>Although, admittedly, Ice Cube has always had an\u200d issue with authority, there\u2063 are times when that\u200d is actually the right way to go.<\/p>\n<p>To trust \u2064a government\u2064 blindly has shown itself to be tragic throughout\u2063 history. The United States of America is no exception.<\/p>\n<p>I admire Ice Cube for his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/evil-demonic-ice-cube-reveals-feels-new-trend-happening-music\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">courage<\/a>. I admire Tucker Carlson for his as well. And \u200beveryone else who refused to do acquiesce to\u200c the\u2063 thumb of the establishment\u200d and extensive posse. Their refusal to become\u200b compliant is transformative. I, too, didn\u2019t get it for the very same reason Carlson and Ice Cube didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cQuestion \u2064everything. Trust nothing.\u201d This is the exact mindset and tonic this nation\u200c needs to\u2063 save it.<\/p>\n<p>Those voices that \u2063Tucker Carlson is desperately searching for, the ones that\u2062 still speak the truth amid\u2062 the \u200bstark ramifications, they are growing. With each new one, the\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/ice-cube-tells-tucker-carlson-the-real-reason-he-refused-vaccine-lost-9m-on-acting-deal\/\" title=\"Ice Cube reveals why he declined vaccine, lost M on acting deal to Tucker Carlson.\">establishment loses traction<\/a>. We move\u2062 closer \u2062to taking our country back.<\/p>\n<p>Where Ice Cube has been accused of being a radical throughout his career, he isn\u2019t \u200cthe first radical God has ever used to save a\u2063 people. He sits\u2062 in good company \u2014 as does the guy he drove around with all afternoon, who lost his job for uncovering too much\u2062 truth. Is it any wonder \u2063both personalities are\u200b so popular? Not\u200b in the least. Makes all the sense in the \u2063world.
