We ask a bunch of questions about the most simple things\u2026 But you can\u2019t just innocently ask a question about something going in your body? I remember going to China and they were telling us that you can\u2019t speak out against the people in power there. I remember all of us thinking, oh okay, well we understand and we respect the laws here, and that it\u2019s so different where we live\u2026 Don\u2019t y\u2019all see that we are now living in that time, where people will turn their back on you\u2026 People will isolate you if you simply speak and ask a question.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"rumble\" src=\"https:\/\/rumble.com\/embed\/vjy2xp\/?pub=4\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>In what may not be a surprise to some, Minaj added that many other musical artists feel the same way as her, \u201cbut they\u2019re afraid to speak up\u201d for fear of the same backlash happening to them. \u201cI will never use Twitter again,\u201d she added, noting that her ban from Twitter was making her think \u201cthat there\u2019s something bigger\u201d happening with censorship in general around the COVID vaccine:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I kept on seeing all these people with all these conspiracy theories I was like, oh what, please. But what in the world scared y\u2019all that much that made you disable my f**king Twitter? I have not put out anything that I said was a fact about anything. I simply said we should be able to ask questions and speak. It\u2019s scary when they start telling you that you can\u2019t ask questions about anything\u2026 Listen to me. Please.
