If a book, article or website is being consistently pushed by highly polarized sources, especially if they're the only ones pushing it and even more if it claims to have been banned by any major, content-neutral platform, then you are being sold bullshit.
Count on it. It doesn't matter if the sources saying nice things about it are Left, Right or either Plain or Fancy Whackdoodle. It doesn't matter how much the book (etc.) confirms your own biases or blows 'em wide open. If it makes extraordinary claims without providing extraordinary proof? It's bullshit. If it offers supposedly ground-shattering insight and hasn't made the front page of a major newspaper or been the lead story on network news? That doesn't confirm there's a conspiracy to suppress it -- it confirms that it's bullshit.
Shocking, surprising, impressive, moving, horrifying, verifiably-real stuff sells newspapers and gets eyes on screens. The New York and LA Times would bite the heads off chickens and TV anchors would compete to eat live rats on camera if it produced big ratings and advertiser dollars. Luckily for us, most people find it repulsive instead.
Vaccines work. They don't cause autism or make your heart explode. 5G is just a cellphone/data protocol -- and some of the nodes run at frequencies close to those of airplane radar altimeters. Human beings -- Americans -- went to the Moon and returned safely. JFK is dead. JFK, Jr. is dead. RFK is dead. RFK, Jr. is a loon.
Stop stuffing your mind with crap, no matter how shiny and sugar-coated it is. Please.
