“Children are the vessels into which adults pour their poison.”
Salman Rushdie, Midnight’s Children
In The Silver Chair, book 6 of CS Lewis’s magnificent The Chronicles of Narnia, the first pages describe a “mixed” school, meaning for boys and girls, that was…
not nearly so mixed as the minds of the people who ran it. These people had the idea that boys and girls should be allowed to do what they liked. And unfortunately what ten or fifteen of the biggest boys and girls liked best was bullying the others. All sort of things, horrid things, went on…[and] the people who did them were not expelled or punished. The Head said they were interesting psychological cases and sent for them and talked to them for hours. And if you knew the right sort of things to say to the Head, the main result was that you became rather a favorite than otherwise.”
The school is called Experiment House and it’s a drab, dull place where, even though it gives the appearance of “everyone doing what they liked,” it’s really a place where everyone must fit in and those who don’t are singled out and persecuted.
The two heroes of the story, Scrubb and Jill, don’t fit in at all, and are being chased by a group of bullies when they come up against the wall at the back of the garden. They are trapped, with nowhere else to turn. In the wall is a door that is always locked. But on this occasion, it opens.
They expected to see the gray, heathery slope of the moor going up and up to join the dull autumn sky. Instead, a blaze of sunlight met them. It poured through the doorway as the light of a June day pours into a garage when you open the door. It made the drops of water on the grass glitter like beads and showed up the dirtiness on Jill’s tear-stained face.”
And so, just as they are about to be caught, Scrubb grabs Jill’s hand and pulls her “through the door, out of the school grounds, out of England, out of our world into That Place.”
I wonder if children read these books anymore? I wonder if children read books at all anymore, or if they simply stare at a lit-up screen and talk into it and it talks back. These books could well be banned as white supremacist propaganda soon anyway. Who knows?
Lewis isn’t very nice to adults in his books. But that’s because adults aren’t very nice to children. Adults have lost their sense of wonderment. The boisterous actions of children are hateful because they remind adults of what they have lost. Children must conform.
Every child who is a little bit different understands exactly how Scrubb and Jill feel. For those who don’t fit in, school is a terrifying place of torture and dread.
What we are now doing to our children with masks and vaccines is a way to make children so compliant that they never think another thought that makes them question what is “behind the door in the wall.”
Children are the bargaining chips held over the heads of those parents who are also inclined towards being just a little bit different. The consequences of being different used to be so benign. Now they could very well be death.
Someone who was once considered a friend might sneeze or touch another person’s hand, or laugh too vigorously and they will become infected. Of course it is better to live in isolation, dependent on electronic devices for amusement and companionship. The world outside is just too unpredictable.
In my last piece Happily Slipping into Our Straight Jackets, I talked about the history of drugging our children and how it has led us to so easily give up our children on the altar of Big Pharma. This, in turn, led us to where we are now, allowing the State to administer an experimental vaccine to our children, and soon even to babies.
As of late May over 600,000 children have received a first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech Covid-19 vaccination. By late June, over ~7 million people younger than 18 have been vaccinated.
Yet it is still only green-lit for emergency use. Why are we doing this? Why are we using our children as guinea pigs to protect adults, when it’s been shown that this illness barely affects children, nor do they easily transmit it?
Most troubling, the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines are the first-ever authorized vaccines to use mRNA. Let me just say, I am not an anti-vaxxer. However, I admit that since the start of this pandemic, I, along with a lot of other people, have begun to question things that I once simply believed because our government told me I should.
A year ago, I was living in Luxor, Egypt, having all kinds of wild adventures while my friends back home were locked in their houses and apartments. I’ve written about those experiences in a series of three essays here. Like most people, I already accepted that not everything I read in the news was true. But I never realized how bad the lies were until the pandemic struck.
From my vantage point far away across the world, in a place that didn’t close down because villages just can’t do that, I began to notice how every single news outlet said the same things. Used the same buzz words. I saw how the tension was building between President Trump and his pandemic task force, in particular Dr Fauci. I watched how at every turn, no matter what Trump said, right or wrong, he had to be discredited.
When Trump closed down travel to China, he was accused of xenophobia. To “send a message” Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi toured San Francisco’s Chinatown, saying there was no reason tourists or locals should be staying away. The day after Trump’s travel ban, Biden accused him of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering. And yet, months later the media made it out that Trump hadn’t done enough and if Biden had been in charge, he would have done much more. What would he have done? Kept the borders open as he is doing now? Everything is a contradiction.
When Trump tried to reassure the public so as not to create a panic, he was accused of purposefully lying to the American people. Yet this was information he got directly from Fauci and he has never been accused of the same. Fauci waffled back and forth on masks, admitting that he lied to the public about masks not being effective in stopping the spread of COVID. Apparently he did this so there wouldn’t be a shortage for health workers. The press doesn’t seem to have a problem with this.
But if our number-one infectious disease expert admits that he lied to us, how do we know he won’t do it again “for our own good?” What we have learned from all of this is that truth doesn’t matter. As long as the lies are making us feel the way we are supposed to feel, we swallow them.
How were we supposed to know Fauci was right and all the other scientific experts who disagreed with him were wrong? It didn’t matter. There could be no dissent.
I saw how information was kept from the public. I became frustrated and began looking for information elsewhere. I had never really listened to Fox News. So, I checked it out. I quickly learned that I could not share anything I discovered on social media. I would be laughed at, screamed at, and unfriended. I couldn’t say that it was giving me a perspective I wasn’t getting on CNN. Not necessarily right or wrong. Just another perspective. And I needed at least one opposing viewpoint from which to compare the State approved information I was receiving.
New media outlets cropped up like Newsmax. I began to appreciate The Epoch Times. I listened to and watched the videos of journalists like Andy Ngo who were out in the field filming raw footage of the riots that mainstream reporters refused to let us see. I read his book, Unmasked, and learned how he was discredited by mainstream reporters. I have a lot of respect for Andy Ngo and I am grateful for his courageous reporting, in the face of physical attacks and death threats that became so bad, he had to move out of the country.
Way back in April of 2020, Mike Pompeo demanded the truth from Beijing as to whether COVID-19 escaped from the Wuhan lab during experiments and China covered it up by blaming ‘wet’ food markets. This sounded plausible to me. Yet, Pompeo now says he received pushback against any type of investigation. Like so many other plausible theories put forward by Trump and his team, all reference to COVID originating in a lab were removed from the internet. Anyone daring to talk about it was labeled a conspiracy theorist and shut out of their social media accounts.
Now, suddenly, it’s all over the news. A year after TRASHING the theory that COVID originated from a Wuhan lab because Trump supported the suggestion – America’s woke mainstream news outlets suddenly start asking if it’s true!
Why? That is a mystery I would like to find the answer for.
And then there’s Hydroxychloroquine. And, I should add Ivermectin. Although I don’t go into it here, it’s the same scenario and you will see it in the news a lot lately—too late for so many people.
In April 2020, a small French study showed HCQ combined with azithromycin, an antibiotic, was safe and effective in lowering COVID-19’s virus count in patients who had first contracted the disease. Mr. Trump immediately cited the study — as it was good news — the world was at the height of the pandemic and HCQ had been approved and used by physicians for 85 years to treat both malaria and some autoimmune diseases.
Instead of this being greeted as hopeful, it was immediately trashed in the media. Fake news. Not following the science. But I wondered. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Big Pharma in collusion with anyone investing into it had good reason to discredit HCQ. The medication was cheap and easily administered. If millions of people started taking this drug, in conjunction with other therapeutics, and they started getting better, what justification would there be for vaccinating the entire world?
When, in July of 2020, a group calling themselves America’s Frontline Doctors, stood upon the steps of our capital building and spoke of the merits of hydroxychloroquine, describing masks as unnecessary, they were derided as quacks. A video of their impassioned speech immediately went viral and was removed from all social media by the next day.
It became apparent to me that anyone, no matter how prominent, no matter how upstanding, who dared to question the State-sanctioned propaganda were being silenced, discredited and fired from their positions. Why weren’t we listening to them?
If, as Fauci was always saying and continues to say to this day, “we simply don’t know [fill in the blank]”, why wouldn’t they welcome the help of a wider range of expertise? These were doctors who put their reputations on the line to speak out. They were in the trenches, actually treating patients. They weren’t theorists like Dr Fauci, playing god in laboratories, receiving grants from Big Pharma with the understanding they needed to reach the required conclusion.
I was inclined to think maybe these doctors had something important to say. Yet still, when I tried to make that suggestion on social media, again, I was shot down. People were really getting worried about me. I was being brainwashed.
By whom? I was merely comparing possibilities. Once upon a time, that was called critical thinking. Now, everyone’s minds were completely closed to any inquiries. I had never experienced anything like it.
Perhaps future generations will look back on the denial of HCQ and Ivermectin to the public to treat this illness as one of the greatest crimes in history. How many lives could have been saved if these inexpensive and easily accessible drugs, along with other therapeutics, had been used early on? Perhaps millions.
Renowned public health officials from around the world denounced the draconian measures being taken in “The Great Barrington Declaration:”
The Great Barrington Declaration – As infectious disease epidemiologists and public health scientists we have grave concerns about the damaging physical and mental health impacts of the prevailing COVID-19 policies, and recommend an approach we call Focused Protection.
Immediately, all of these experts were discredited and silenced. The all-encompassing power to control information was becoming apparent.
Kary Mullis, the inventor of the PCR test himself said it was not a reliable test for viruses. His words were silenced, or twisted around to mean something else, even though what he said was very plain.
In the meantime, the flu magically disappeared. That was because of masks and lockdowns we were told. But then, why didn’t it work for COVID?
If even the testing method we were using wasn’t accurate, or could be fiddled with to create more or less positive results when needed, how could we be sure of anything?
We have a video from 2017 where Dr. Fauci actually warned of a pandemic and a surprise outbreak. But it doesn’t seem to be of significance.
We have Dr. Fauci’s treasure trove of emails, where it looks like he potentially tried to hide the very real possibility that the virus came from the Wuhan lab. The emails show him flip-flopping on masks, justifying it by saying well, the science changed.
But whose science? When only one voice is allowed—that being the voice of those who have everything to gain from hiding truth—then “science” becomes a tool for control rather than a method by which we find truth.
Despite the revelations, the state-run media, are still enamored with Fauci. Asking him delicate questions, drooling over his sainthood, just as they do over Biden’s grandfatherly and completely nonthreatening demeanor.
That is, except when Biden wakes up long enough, as he did at a recent event, to squint down at a little girl in the audience, of not more than 10 years of age, and say,
I uh, I love those barrettes in your hair, man. I tell you what, look at her. She looks like she’s 19 years old sitting there like a little lady with her legs crossed.”
A poll during voting showed that nearly half of Biden voters said their vote wasn’t for Biden so much as it was against Trump.
Anything would be better than that racist maniac Orange Man Bad.
Better to lie, better to have people die without the therapeutic drugs that could have saved them, better to let China off the hook, than to admit Trump was right about anything.
Fill people with so much fear and hatred they don’t suspect the obvious: That the gods behind the curtain; the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, are gaining absolute power over our minds and bodies and we are giving it up to them without blinking an eye.
During the pandemic the nation’s 644 billionaires gained almost $1 trillion in total net worth, according to a new analysis, while the poorer Americans struggle with lost wages and jobs. Doesn’t that mean anything to anybody? Aren’t the implications obvious?
Apparently not. I haven’t finished my Netflix series. Have you seen it? What do you recommend I watch next?
Take care of us. Keep us safe. Lull us to sleep with our smartphones and our drugs, cover our faces, administer our vaccines.
Once Trump was gone, anyone who thought the same, namely anyone who questioned the State, needed to be discredited as well. A line was drawn. There was no middle ground.
Either you were a masker and a vaxxer or you were a heretic. And we all know what happens to heretics.
When January 6th occurred, Biden called it the worst terrorist event in our history. Domestic terrorism, that’s what we are up against now. Even though those who stormed the capital were let in by the police, had no weapons and killed no one. Called murderers when the only person murdered that day was Ashli Babbitt. Journalist Tayler Hansen, @TaylerUSA, who filmed Ashli Babbitt’s death, identified the officer responsible for the shooting as Lieutenant Mike Byrd, a Black man. Hansen was subsequently arrested. True to form, the mainstream media showed no interest in investigating Ashli Babbitt’s death.
Obviously. It would have gone against the narrative.
In a recent speech, Biden declared white supremacists the ‘most lethal threat’ to US, as he marked Tulsa race massacre.
Where is this terrible, out of control threat? To compare what happened that day when a bunch of losers entered the capital—video footage even showing police officers inviting them in—to 9/11 is an insult to all who died when terrorists rammed those planes into the World Trade Center. 2,977 people were killed that day and more than 6,000 injured.
It is an insult to all who died during the BLM and Antifa riots, to those who were trapped inside government buildings when rioters tried to burn them down, to small neighborhood businesses that were destroyed. BLM riots caused over $1 billion of damage, ‘yet media says they’re mostly peaceful’.
Most of all, it’s an insult to the nearly 300 children who were shot and killed in 2020, a 50% increase from 2019, and the more than 5,100 children aged 17 and younger were killed or injured, within their own neighborhoods.
So, who are these white supremacists endangering our country? They are fast becoming defined as every person who does not agree with the State.
How do you succeed in silencing almost 80,000,000 people or maybe even more? Trump warned that when he was gone, his attackers would not be finished. “Then they will come for you.”
Anyone who refuses to submit to this vaccine will receive this label. Anyone who refuses to submit their child to this vaccine will be given this label. It won’t matter whether you voted for Trump or not. That will be the label assigned to you.
Proof of vaccination is already being required in restaurants, where the unvaxxed must sit in a special section, wearing masks.
There are countless cases of employees being fired from jobs for not taking the jab. If you want to keep your job, you better take the jab.
Although we were previously told the federal government would leave mask mandates to local government and businesses, Homeland Security now says it is taking a close look at vaccine passports for international travel.
In January 2021, the Los Angeles Unified School District announced that it plans to require its students to receive the COVID vaccine once it is approved and available. Los Angeles Unified is the nation’s largest school district.
And so, we have now been divided into two camps. The vaxxed and the unvaxxed. Who will suffer the most from this? Who is already suffering the most?
Our children.
I hear from parents that they are receiving messages from schools to get their children on the waiting list to be vaccinated. The vaccine will be available in the fall for kids twelve and up. The parents who contact me are against vaccinating their children and say they will never give in. I don’t think they realize how bad it could get.
All the “good” parents will line up for it. All the “good” children will be rewarded for obeying the State by being allowed to attend school free of masks and lead a “normal” life. The children whose parents refuse will have to continue wearing masks. They will have to sit in a special section, eat and play separately.
As I showed in my previous essay with drugging children diagnosed with attention deficit disorder, parents who do not conform to vaccinating their children will be seen as irresponsible. Those who are vaccinated will accuse them of selfishness, just as we see adults accusing the unvaxxed of this. Of putting the entire community as risk.
Imagine being those children, being used as examples of the evils of nonconformity. They will become pariahs among their peers and their teachers. They will be mocked, shamed and shunned.
Already, children at this age just want to fit in. The unvaxxed children will go home and beg for their parents to get them vaccinated. Children will turn against their parents. Those few kids who are natural free thinkers, like Scrubb and Jill, will suffer more than they ever have in the past. They will not even have the satisfaction of being thought of as cool by the outside crowd. There won’t be any outside crowd.
Only the vaxxed and the unvaxxed.
Where adults have been allowed to remove their masks — although many choose not to — children are still being forced to wear them. While the nation debates Dr Fauci’s emails and how much he really knew, how much information was hidden, how deeply involved he was in research at the Wuhan lab; all these things that for so long were labeled conspiracy theories and are now turning out to be true; our children continue to suffer the abuse of covering their mouths and noses eight hours a day both inside the classroom and outside in terrible heat as they attempt to play.
But according to parents I’ve spoken to, when their kids go home, they don’t go outside. Instead, they are on their tablets or i-pads, interacting on Tiktok, Instagram and Snapchat. They are uninterested in exercise. They are terrified of germs. And parents, busy online themselves, are ignorant as to what their children are engaging in.
During April to October 2020 in the US, emergency room visits linked to mental health problems (e.g. anxiety) for children aged 5-11 increased by nearly 25% and increased by 31% for those aged 12-17 years old as compared to the same period in 2019. During the month of June 2020, 25% of persons aged 18 to 24 in the US reported suicidal ideation. While some of this may be related to the pandemic, we suspect that it is largely a function of our response to the pandemic.
While “the most common experiences reported of online issues involved bullying or generally being made to feel uncomfortable, one in three participants reported having had an online sexual interaction,” a report said. Thorn report: Why you kids shouldn’t be on TikTik or Instagram | 7NEWS.com.au
Most participants reported receiving a “sext”, while 18 per cent had received a nude photo or video and 18 per cent had been asked to send a nude photo or video.
Children as young as five years old know how to use phones and tablets. It is their language. Jackie, a friend of mine who is a mother of a toddler and a social media influencer on Tiktok says “You wouldn’t believe what children are accessing online nowadays.”
The gods above us use their power to suppress knowledge of all that might expose them as the Machiavellian fraudsters that they are, yet no one is protecting our children from dangerous information.
What is a parent to do?
Move to the country. Start a commune. Start neighborhood learning centers with like-minded parents. I have heard many parents say, “If they try to force me to vaccinate my children, I will take them out.”
All well and good. But there are many who cannot afford to do this. Many will have no choice but to give in to the State. If they don’t, just as happened to parents who resisted putting their children on Ritalin, they will be accused of abuse and perhaps even have their children taken from them.
Just as happened to Patricia Weathers, who in 2020 took her 9-year-old son off an antidepressant and medication similar to Ritalin, because he was constantly gnawing at his shirt collar and had began to hear “voices.”
As a result, her son’s elementary school accused her of medical neglect and called child-abuse investigators. Years of battling the school in the courts took its toll until she finally won in court. But most people don’t have the knowledge or the resources to sustain such a battle.
School officials can force a parent to seek out a professional, such as a psychiatrist. And can they expel a child who doesn’t take medication or intimidate parents by threatening to phone social services or child-abuse investigators? Weathers says that’s what happened to her, and there are reports of other similar cases around the country.
All of this intimidation and training to comply was a precursor to what is happening now. With psychiatric drugs, the only person the State can claim you are putting at risk is your own child. With vaccines, they can claim you are putting the entire country at risk. Millions of lives are on your hands and the hands of other deplorables like you.
My daughter and her husband spent the past year in Slovenia where their two boys, ages three and two, have gone to daycare free of masks. In July, they are moving back to Los Angeles. They are against masks and the vaccine, both for themselves and their children.
They could not find a single daycare in their area that didn’t require children to wear masks.
And those daycares all reassured her — as if it would make her feel better — that once the vaccine was available and the tiny tots had taken it, they would be allowed to go mask free. At last, my daughter found one daycare that didn’t require masks. It was a private Christian school. So, that is where they will put their boys.
We already see signs of Christians schools being demonized.
A March article in Ms Magazine declared How Christian Schools and Homeschooling Teach Supremacist Conspiracies.
Statistically, homeschoolers do much better with learning and their futures than public school children. Yet academics such as Prof. Elizabeth Bartholet, are leading the charge against those who actively resist public schools and she believes that the generation currently being homeschooled is an eventual, if not active, breeding ground for racism, sexism, and isolationism.
“Many homeschool precisely because they want to isolate their children from ideas and values central to public education and to our democracy. Many promote racial segregation and female subservience. Many question science. Many are determined to keep their children from exposure to views that might enable autonomous choice about their future lives,” she claims.
My daughter certainly is not a white supremacist. She is not a Trump supporter. She has no interest in politics. She just wants to follow what she believes is best for her children.
Yet, if things keep going on as they are now, it is quite possible that anyone who doesn’t adhere to the “ideas and values central to public education and to our democracy,” meaning what is acceptable to the totalitarian state, will automatically be considered enemies of the state and as such, in need to reeducation, imprisonment, or perhaps even worse.
Some might accuse me of alarmism. Nothing would make me happier than to be proved an alarmist. However, unless people stand up and speak out, this is surely what we are facing. And I think those who are reading this who don’t want their children submitted to this experimentation and abuse know in their hearts this might well be what they are facing.
I want to end with a little story. I was raised by a Mennonite mother. There was much I rebelled against as a child, teenager. Despite my doubts and rebellions, I always knew I had a history to be proud of; a foundation of strong, courageous people who stood up for what they believed, even in the face of death. Before her passing my mother left each of her children a booklet with the history of our people.
She called the booklet A Far Journey. It tells the story of the Anabaptists who split from the Catholic Church and followed the teachings of a Dutch preacher named Menno Simmons, born in 1496.
This was a time of great upheaval. The Protestants were fighting for the right to free information for all. No longer should the gateway to God be blocked by priests and popes. No longer should the common man be kept from reading and interpreting the Sacred Scriptures for himself. This free information for all, brought about by the invention of the printing press, threatened the hold the powerful had on the ignorant souls beneath them.

Bloody battles ensued. The cause became politicized, of course, and used by both sides to gain more power. But as always, there were the common people who stood up for their rights. The Martyrs Mirror, a collection of records, letters and court accounts tells the stories of many of those who remained faithful and paid the price of their lives.
There is one letter in the collection from Janneken Muntsdorg, written from prison to her one-month-old daughter, also named Janneken. The mother bore her child in prison and the girl was taken from her. Knowing she would never see her daughter again, she wrote a letter for her to read one day. Part of it goes thus:
The true love of God and wisdom of the Father strengthen you in virtue, my dearest child; …and strengthen and confirm your understanding in His truth […] for if we were to continue in the world, we would have had no trouble. For when we were one with the world and practiced idolatry, and loved all manner of unrighteousness, we could live at peace with the world; but when we desired to fear God and to shun such improper ways…then they did not leave us in peace; then our blood was sought; then we had to be a prey to everyone, and become a spectacle to all the world. They seek here to murder and burn us; we are placed at posts and stakes, and our flesh is given as food to the worms.”
Words too drastic? I think not.
I recite these words if only to wake people up from their sleep! If only to remind us that many have gone before who suffered and died for the freedoms we enjoy. The freedoms to read and write, to worship and pray and speak as we choose. Not just for Christians, but for everyone. Everyone. The freedoms to agree and disagree. Even to believe outrageous “conspiracy” theories.
The internet has created a crisis even greater than the invention of the printing press. In those days, the information of the texts was limited to biblical knowledge. As time went on, that information grew. Now, a seemingly infinite wealth of information is at our fingertips. We are being told that information is dangerous. That we need to put it into the hands of the powerful once again. We must trust them as the doorkeepers between our minds and the mysteries of the universe.
Just as the reformers stood up for their rights to interpret texts on their own, so we must stand up for our rights to do the same.
Perhaps the day will come when the individual will submit to the will of the State and we will be more machine than we are flesh and blood. I know men like Elon Musk dream of this. He says we need these changes if we want to explore the universe, to travel to other planets. We need to evolve. I would love nothing more than to explore other planets. Perhaps losing our humanity little by little is the price we must pay for that “advancement.” If science fiction is any indication—and I tend to believe science fiction sometimes more than actual science—this is probably inevitable.
But that day is not today. For now, we must fight for the right to hold onto our freedoms. Oh, we can have intellectual discussions about how we aren’t really “free” and all of that, but I do know the difference between freedom and bondage.
I walked through Dachau as a child. I stood at the Berlin Wall and crossed the barrier from the land of the free into the land of the oppressed. From one step to the next, I passed from light into darkness. I was fortunate. I was allowed to pass back again, horribly aware of all the yearning souls I was leaving behind.
Don’t let the lies lull you to sleep. Don’t let cynicism overcome you.
I have faith that there will always be at least one Scrubb and one Jill in every school. Those who refuse to fit in. Those who still see the mystery beyond the wall.
Those who find the way out of darkness and into light.
I started with Salmon Rushdie and I will end with him. I saw him once at a party at a club, back in the 90s. He was a very ugly man, but he was with a very beautiful woman. I wondered about him. He looked so insignificant, yet what power his words had! So much power that they were dangerous to the regime in Iran and a price was put on his head. Yet there he sat, enjoying his life.
In those heretical Satanic Verses, he wrote:
What kind of idea are you? Are you the kind that compromises, does deals, accommodates itself to society, aims to find a niche, to survive; or are you the cussed, bloody-minded, ramrod-backed type of damn-fool notion that would rather break than sway with the breeze? – The kind that will almost certainly, ninety-nine times out of hundred, be smashed to bits; but, the hundredth time, will change the world.”
We may be smashed to bits. Still, let’s be the ones who change the world.

I can honestly say that the worst moment in the last 16 months with the pandemic for me was when my very social and friendly 7 year old was yelled at on the playground by another masked 6 year old: “Stay away from me, I don´t want to get sick! Don´t you know anything about distance???”, when all that my daughter wanted was to play together. It left her in tears and provided a good opportunity for our family to discuss that there are some people in the world that it is better to stay away from. I don´t blame that little girl either, her little brain has been traumatized probably beyond repair to view other children as a potentially deadly hazard, and the accomplices in this child abuse are her own parents.
This has been the largest trauma event to the collective minds of a whole generation of young people ooutside of wars, probably for life. In 20 years from now, when those traumatized children will be adults, we will have an even more dysfunctional society than now.
Our homeschool journey was not started by me, but by our 5 year old that proclaimed many years ago that he never wants to go to school because it is like a prison. Just recently, he reiterated that thought by saying that school is all about the grades and about obedience and not about actual learning. Turns out he is is a lot wiser than many people many times his age.
Good job Loka!A parent who actually listens to their kids is a great gift for their children,perhaps the best gift.
“In 20 years from now, when those traumatized children will be adults…” I disagree. In 20 years, I predict 95% of those infected with the vaxx will be dead. All part of Gates depopulation master plan.
The only ones left will be mind controlled drones needed to clean up the #$&^ the uber masters generate.
If CS Lewis was alive today he’d write “The Chronicles of a Chickenshit Nation”.
Difference between 1944 and 2021 ….
It is curious how many unnecessary slaughters were orchestrated to kill off the bravest of our men.
“Adam’s Rib,” a book about how a generation of manly men were slaughtered in WWI. Also, from the German perspective, “The Slaughter of the Innocents,” the cream of Aryan manhood destroyed. Beyond uselessly tragic
The B3RG must feed Baal.
Thats my favorite meme of all time. Thanks
In spiritual and biblical terms this clip lays it all out –

That’s a 33 minute video claiming that the Shit Shot is the “abomination of desolation” described thousands of years ago in the Bible.
That’s kind of, well, retarded. It’s pure hogwash and sensationalism; twisting Scripture to make ancient texts appear to be addressing those living in 2021, ignorance of linguistics, context, and principles of interpretation. Comic book theology.
But, that’s just my OPINION. For all I know, the antichrist could be the dingleberry on the hair closest to my asshole.
Consider that most of the scripture deals with patterns.
But what happened to Carthage, which sacrificed its children to appease the Gods, is very well known…Even the earth it stood on was salted…
Pretty sure carthage won in the end. Look at Europe today
If it is 33 minutes long, I want nothing to do with it.
Always 33.
My flat-earther buddy texts me about 5 videos a day. The shortest are usually a full hour. He says “I know you think I’m crazy, lol.” I reply, “no, I think you’re retarded”. There are meds for crazy. Retarded is a lost cause.
the Bible is a weapon that has enslaved humanity to evil.
Nobody even thinks twice, every time something horrible happens they say it’s “Biblical”.
All evil comes from that book.
moron
The Bible is Satan’s book, his greatest deception.
Fool
But not fooled.
Shut up, Ed
Why?
You don’t like it when your false god gets called out?
Your God ain’t got anything to do with what’s going on. This was all born in the hearts of man. God isn’t going to do a damn thing for you. Are you really that obtuse to think he’s going to pop up and help you? Now, what are YOU willing to do to make a difference in this world?
They’ll do nothing. Why do you think they’re here larping.
i intend to die unvaxxed. EVERYTHING OF ME BELONGS TO JESUS CHRIST.
Bozo’s bastard child Jen Psaki committed a massive faux paux this week which legal “experts” say makes Trump’s suit against Big Tech a slam dunk. She laid in some detail how they ask the Tech Fuques to do this or that, ban this one or that one. It suggests an agency relationship which blows all previous protections right out the door.
The fight has not even begun. This is dirty war and it’s time to embrace the suck.
This is not the first time in Our History that our own government has utilized non-governmental entities to accomplish what our Constitution and Bill of Rights forbid our government from doing.
The lawsuits will be interesting … and could end up really showing We The People just what kind of shenanigans TPTB are trying to do to the rest of US.
It’s time to fight back, folks … ‘by any means necessary’ … just keep it peaceful and street legal so you don’t end up in the American Gulag.
The lawsuits are likely quite predictable…protecting the State. Yes, let us peacefully journey to the AmeriKan Gulag.
“It’s time to fight back, folks … ‘by any means necessary’ … just keep it peaceful and street legal so you don’t end up in the American Gulag.”
Anything we unvaxxed do is not “street legal.” Antifa and BLM burned down whole blocks of Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis and other cities and were given a pass. I say let’s put that shoe on the other foot and “peaceably” destroy bridges, water filtration plants, power substations, hospitals, and other key infrastructure.
We will eventually end up either dead or in the American Gulag no matter what. Better to die on your feet with a weapon in your hand than on your knees begging for mercy from a tyrant.
Assuming of course the courts are worth a shit.
SCOTS is fast running out of credibility. And they tried to tell us that Barrett broad had balls.

Everything of you belongs to the government.
Wrong again Sticky, SeaShell is quite right; and a real warrior with an attitude like that.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 KJB… “What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
For cryin out loud gc, it was humor. Something you could have by simply chugging a pint of milk of magnesia and waiting 6 hours.
You’ve hated Stucky since the day you got here. How Christian is that? I bet you have a verse to justify it too.
I don’t hate Stucky. This is my playtime. Who are you anyway?
Couldn’t be Moar correct. You body will only be reclaimed upon your time of death….of your choosing.
That’s right, starting at the very beginning on that little birth certificate printed on bank bond paper, right down to that personalized serial number on it
I have a friend who told me she was making sure her kids had, something like, a hard life. Being ranchers they are in a position to do this thoroughly. These kids have a very free life though. So much so most these days wouldn’t believe it.
The article’s parents were very nice. They probably praised their kids for their ideas and didn’t want to crush their little minds, and GIVE them every opportunity. This is like the parent who wrote an article here how they support their daughter who always wanted to go to a high fallutin school for engineering (I think it was). I suggested it’s not a great idea to hobnob with the sort that will be there. They rejected this.
However I don’t blame parents, generally speaking, how their kids turned out because the kids are responsible for themselves once adults. Just like we all are.
Oops. Got this mixed up with another article. O well.
I taught my kids that what they learn online or at school is to be taken with a grain of salt. Or what people say. A lot of people are kind of dumb. my kids are going back to school, they want to hang out with friends. I kind of figured this would happen since online learning is a lonely thing. To graduate the kids basically learn the same thing online as they do in school. They are free to learn whatever they want at home. I wish they were a bit more curious about things besides games.
I talk to my kids about the virus and they both say they won’t take it. I think the fear I see in people and how TPTB uses fear to control people is really disgusting. I point this stuff out to my kids. I think a lot of how people act depends on where you live, we have gone out to eat and nobody is wearing a mask and there are lines to get in to eat. As I am fond of saying, it is all about controlling people. Time for coffee!
More like a bushel of salt…
There are a lot of other options than sending them back to school due to loneliness vs. online schooling. I hate to see parents defeated this way. You have more control and options than you think. Is it easy? No, but nothing worth doing is easy. Get off the conveyor belt.
Also, electronics are the quickest way to kill a love of learning. Just sayin…
“A lot of people are kind of dumb.” – understatement of the year.
“Electronics” per se are not what is killing a love of learning, only if they are used to numb the mind, sometimes from harsher pains that are too difficult to face. Oodles of worksheets in physical paper format do not exactly inspire a love of learning either. I am not fond of screens in general either, but we our children have self-taught themselves a lot of things such as how to code complex 3D models, how to make jewelry, thousands of factoids about animals and how to play the piano, all with the help of electronics.
At the end of the day, it is not about filling a vessel but about lighting a flame, and, often, surprisingly little is required by the parents. Sometimes, you just have to get out of the way and they will thrive (but it is a good idea to peek and check on them here and there without them noticing).
Final thought: School as a social venue is totally overrated.
But if all you do is play games (which he mentioned above), then yes, that will kill a love of learning faster than anything. Nothing can compete with the bells and whistles and the addictive nature of gaming. Teaching a room full of kids who cannot focus and concentrate, but can only talk about Fortnight taught me that.
“…it is not about filling a vessel but about lighting a flame…”
Really good… 😊
Abigail- Years ago, I asked the question here…..”With all of this high tech computer technology capable of high speed information, WHY are people getting dumber”? Nobody ever answered the question and it is MUCH worse now. School systems spend far more per student today on education and children are getting little more than basics and indoctrination. The ONLY hope is for parents to roll up their sleeves, get off Farcebook and social media and teach their children the old fashioned way. There should be nothing electronic in the classroom, just books and be very picky about the books used for instruction.
BL…I wholeheartedly agree. The schools are using way too much technology to teach, IMO. Why? Because it’s easier. Then, there is free time where kids are allowed on iPads for fun. There’s no teaching cursive anymore, there are fewer and fewer recesses for young kids who need to move, then they go home and sit some more on electronics. It’s really a problem if we want active excited learners.
I also taught at a classical school who did not allow any electronic learning. A lot of parents appreciated that, but there were some who felt the kids were not being prepared for the real world. The curriculum was very rich in history, literature, writing, debate, Socratic discussions, science, and math. I would argue that those kids far outperformed their peers at typical schools.
Necessity is the mother of invention. People aren’t smart because they don’t have to be at the moment. That’ll change eventually.
People are getting dumber(stupider?)BECAUSE of all the high tech/high speed information – why bother learning when it is all there at your fingertips(much of it warped and untrue, like Wikipedia, of course)…I have an old library dictionary, the kind as big as two concrete blocks put side by side, that they used to have on a lectern; it never gathered dust until I started using search engines for definitions. I used to read a random page out of it just for fun. I think I’ll go dust it off…
BL — One reason people are getting dumber is because their “brain” is on their desk or in their hand. We used to practice remembering things. For example, we used to memorize our most called phone numbers. We had memorized how to spell words. We used paper maps to figure out how to get to an exact address. We added, subtracted, or multiplied by grabbing a piece of scratch paper or else figuring it out in our heads. The cyber world is not the real world. The cyber world is about dopamine hits and addiction. That and information overload are why people are getting dumber. How many people do you know who take time for introspection? Or to ponder what they have just learned before hitting the next webpage or post?
Johanna Nolan was killed by a runaway car while grocery shopping. The car was driven by an elderly man who became confused and hit the accelerator instead of the brake. Ms. Nolan was the principal of Sumner Elementary School. She was in the news last year there was a controversy at Sumner because unvaccinated children were forced to wear masks . ( Purely a fictional event)
True story (though not nearly as thought provoking as the possibilities in your example): last summer around this time a woman came into the neighborhood early one Saturday morning driving a little fast-she was on her way to a garage sale and apparently felt she was late, so her attention to her driving became a little lax. She was navigating her way around the round-about with the slightly elevated landscaping in the center when she noticed she was about to collide with a car already having the right-of-way. Instead of hitting the brakes she somehow floored the accelerator, ran up onto the elevated island, mowed down a street sign, ran over a bush, crossed the roadway, jumped the curb, ran through some bushes, demolished a six foot tall stone end cap to the 3 rail cedar fence, ending up about 50 feet further on in the midst of a trail of crushed cedar rails and posts. Totaled her car, did at least $10,000 of other damage but thankfully did not injure anyone. All so she could go buy someone else’s junk. Have no idea if the ditz was wearing a mask.
Vaxident?
Good vs Evil is has been a long, slow War since Man was created.
There is a Constant Darkness over Man .
In every generation and in every part of the world it is given a face : Herod, Nero, Genghis Khan, Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin, et al. That helps for us to deal with it. The problem is Evil is more than that current face, it is a constant attempt to crush our soul. Once the soul is crushed, evil triumphs.
Our soul is all that stands between Good winning or Evil winning.
The bottom line is Evil is there and as an individual you either fight it or give in.
A very long and well written article pointing out the obvious….It’s all a trillionaire scam to empty the treasury , destroy you and your children, and replace you with low IQ 3d worlders who, however, are smart enough not to get jabbed…Giving this dangerous not-vaxx to children is pure evil, and the parents who have allowed, and even insisted on it, are evil and reminiscent of the Carthaginians who threw their babies into a fire to appease Moloch….Carthage, of course, was completely wiped from the planet….
I loved C.S. Lewis and Tolkien as a child,would have loved to hang in bar with those two as they discussed the state of the world!They were both survivors of the battle of the Somme in WW1,the largest death toll battle wise in that war,feel tis were they got a lot of their characters and the battle sof good vrs. evil from.
Lewis’s death was overshadowed unfortunately by the death of another great author who died the same day,Aldous Huxley, and both their deaths were overshadowed by the death the same day by the death of JFK,weird times.

These psychopaths love to inflict pain on us. They also are coming for the animals. Zoetis is the animal health division of Pfizer. They have over 11,000 employees. In 2020 they grossed over $6 billion in vaccine sales.
The animal division includes livestock and companion pets. In early 2020,Zoetis pushed the USDA for approval for a Covid jab for animals. In late 2020 is was granted.
On 1/21/21, Karen, a 28 year old Oragatun at the San Diego Park zoo was nominated for the test jab. She had no side effects. Like clockwork, 3 dozen zoos ordered the jab.
In 2017, Zoetis received a $15 million dollar grant from, wait for it, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. It was for the African Livestock Productivity and Health Advancement initiative. Since then, 1.7 billion jabs have been given.
Psalm 26:5
“I hate the assembly of the evildoers and I will not sit with the wicked.”
That pretty much blows the chances of the Psalmist ever getting any kind of government “job”.
Robbie,
Good one!
The big THEY at FDA has known how bad the reactions and deaths could be since October 2020 and so they approved it for emergency use ! Knowing many would suffer injury and death and no clue how many or how long it could take . Some very soon others a year or more . And still they push it !
WTF is going on here ?
It is the most direct path to de-populating the earth while simultaneously sterilizing the population at or before child bearing years. Thus, a submissive population will gladly dig the ditches for the elites piss in.
So we are at the point of what will we do when arrest and prison is the consequence for NOT taking the jab? The French model is likely coming here. Update: Ireland now also on the brink of codifying vax/non-vax citizen rights.
Not a fan of Sherman, but his words of “Make Georgia Howl” come to mind. Just in reverse.
Here is his actual telegram to Grant.
Allatoona 7:30 p.m.
Oct. 9th 1864
Lt. Gen. Grant
City Point
It will be a physical impossibility to protect this road now that Hood, Forrest, Wheeler and the whole batch of Devils are turned loose without home or habitation. I think Hoods movements indicate a direction to the end of the Selma and Talladega road to Blue Mountain about sixty miles south west of Rome from which he will threaten Kingston, Bridgeport and Decatur and I propose we break up the road from Chattanooga and strike out with wagons for Milledgeville Millen and Savannah.
Until we can repopulate Georgia it is useless to occupy it, but utter destruction of its roads, houses, and people will cripple their military resources. By attempting to hold the roads we will lose a thousand men monthly and will gain no result. I can make the march and make Georgia howl. We have over 8,000 cattle and 3,000,000 pounds of bread but no corn, but we can forage the interior of the state.
W.T. Sherman

Falcon- Think about this, a few years back I was watching a doc on youtube and they showed technology for an electronic “Agent” who would represent YOU. This agent answered the phone, ordered groceries to be delivered etc. The people /actual humans basically stayed in bed all day (I’m guessing in a drug induced semi-coma). I wondered what in the world would keep people confined completely to their homes….ENTER COVID19. Many people/holdouts could just be CONFINED to their homes or get vaxxed. So the drug induced state of being would make sense to combat the boredom and isolation.
Fukkin Nazis.
Sounds kinda like Brave New World
Give up your soul or wear an ankle bracelet and become a prisoner in your own home. Either they are just messin’ with us or that may be our fate. Ask yourself this, all these thousands of dead people (since Covid19 showed up) were THEY just messin’ with them? Poor souls, they got their ticket punched early.
That sort of reminds me of the movie Surrogates. The real human is laying in bed wearing a virtual headset, while their surrogate is out in the real world going to work or shopping or socializing for them. They view their experiences thru the headset, and that’s their safe, better lifestyle. There are a small group of people who are totally against the technology, so eventually the two factions butt heads. Gotta make sure that there’s dualism everywhere, whether in movies or in real life.
For most of this National nightmare, I have judged the Machiavellian actions of the Government health officials, pharmaceutical industry and media through the lens of cui bono, to whom is the benefit. Consequently, I had considered this a huge grift on the US taxpayer to the benefit of big pharma, the oligarchs and Wall Street – greed.
I had dismissed the talk of pure evil conspiracies, Malthusian or otherwise. However, the recent talking point being frenetically spewed by the administration and their media lapdogs of a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” has me believing that something truly evil may be transpiring that could rival the most egregious, totalitarian body slams of the 20th century. This bold-faced effort to demonize a large percentage of the US population seems to have reached, if I may borrow an idiom from Donald Trump, “warp speed”.
What could explain the difference between the British authorities finding that roughly half of the new cases are in fully vaccinated patients and the Biden administration shouting that virtually all new cases are unvaccinated? Oh yeah, the British authorities do not desire to wipe staunch conservatives (almost certainly the lion-share of the “vaccine” sceptics) and other problematic groups, off the face of the planet. Their desperation is easily visible. What are they so panicked about? I’ve read that the critics of the so-called vaccine believe that the adverse effects may arise after six months or so. Maybe that’s the trigger – it’s been about six months since the jabs became widely available.
The most vaccinated nation with arguably the most draconian lockdowns in the world is Israel, yet their own gov’t acknowledges that approx. 80% of the new infections are from those vaccinated. Our dictatorship here and throughout the West are so confident of their absolute power that they still promote lies in plain sight.
The Britsh have a culture of traditions at least, don’t believe they want to destroy the bedrock of that tradition.
Those running America desire to destroy everything about the US, especially the white Christian.
So Boris Johnson just announced that you’ll need proof of vaccination to go to a club in the UK. Dang. I guess I’ll just have to dress up like a fairy and dance around in my own house here in the Former United States.
Agree with all of this except for “the losers who invaded the capitol.” Those “losers” are becoming more prescient every day.
They may be prescient, but they ignored Luke 14:31:
“what king marching into battle would not first sit down and decide whether with ten thousand troops he can successfully oppose another king advancing upon him with twenty thousand troops? ”
They took on the system in the very nerve center of that system. DC votes 93% democrat. There’s your jury pool – to say nothing of the leftist prosecutors, leftist-run Capitol Police, communist CIA & FBI instigators (and probable “bomb” setters). When the Left stormed the Senate chamber to try to stop Kavanaugh being approved, they got $50 tickets for trespassing. When Mr. Viking Hat sat in Pelosi’s throne he gets thrown in solitary for 7 months (so far). It’s an inherent problem. As this lady said: “When you go in the sharks’ house, you gon’ get ate up.” DC is the sharks’ house.
“The losers that invaded the Capitol”? A blemish in a otherwise great magnum opus
Stew Peters talked with Dr. David Martin in an historical interview with inarguable fact-based exposure that should be seen by the entire world as an absolute end to the COVID narrative.

You wrote : “They could not find a single daycare in their area that didn’t require children to wear masks.” – Here is a thought, Mom should stay home and raise her children instead of farming out her motherly duties to strangers who haven’t a lick of Philia for her progeny… Just a thought.
Karen Hunt,
Just another heretic and apostate from the true faith, the Catholic Faith.
Karen certainly will lead you straight to hell.
“He who wishes to be saved must hold to the Catholic Faith, whole and inviolate, or they will without a doubt perish in the eternal flames.
Paul
Keep following your Pedophile Communist Pope.
Paul, you are a fool and an idiot. The Catholic Church is filled with Satanists, Pedophiles, sexual deviants of all kinds, and above all is led by a Jesuit, Communist apologist, most likely a pedophile, himself. The Catholic Church is THE MYSTERY WHORE, BABYLON, in my humble opinion. So, go pound sand with your heretical blasphemy, Paul. And good luck with your final destination; Heaven, I think not. Well, I reread what you posted and will have to retract what I Replied to you. This reply is redirected to those who follow the holy Catholic religion, which I was raised on for more years than I care to remember. As far back as I can remember and while a Catholic, I always questioned the doctrine that was drilled in my head by the “odd” priests and nuns. I departed when, at the age of 14, I had had enough of it all.
Vaxxed vs. Unvaxxed…. Simple attrition. Wait them out.
As the vaxxed begin to die off (it’s already happening) the pressure on the unvaxxed should start to lessen. It’s a matter of waiting out the enemy and letting natural (or as in this case unnatural) attrition take over. As a bonus, the majority of vaxxed in the U.S. are Democrats, so the jab will be killing two birds with one stone. Sad state of affairs, but true.
Thank you for this enormous dose of ultra common sense. Very well done !!!
Sorry, don’t believe in any vaccines anymore. Where is the cancer vaccine, for instance? It is my belief there is NO virus per se, but only unsanitary conditions that cause horrible diseases.
And they just found out horrible diseases don’t exist in the West so they make horrible vaccines to take its place.
One way or another they’ll get you.
“I don’t believe in vaccines any more”!!!
Vaccines work against viruses and bacteria. Cancer is something totally different – there are many cancers – and they aren’t bacteria or viruses. You ought to study a little biology and gain knowledge not just random beliefs.
When you stand back and contemplate the article in toto, it sounds like stories from the Soviet Union! It is no longer the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave™ but the ghetto of the Timid Sheep. You are not going to find freedom here.
Time to emigrate. Just like our ancestors emigrated from Europe, mainly, we must move on to seek freedom. Unlike the 16th century where freedom seeking people had the blank slate of the New World to create a free society and polity, today we must go where we have a fighting chance of overthrowing tyranny and making a free society from the wreckage. The place chosen has to be defensible, because tyranny cannot stand freedom and will attack it with every weapon in its arsenal.
It will not be easy, nothing worthwhile ever is. However, destiny demands we try. To roll over and die without a fight is to spit in the eye of every soldier and statesman and husband and wife who gave their all for freedom.
This is completely nuts!!
In fact, here in Australia since the borders opened the illness has flooded in, my daughter and all the 20-30 yr olds got it already and what happened? Vaxxed people are getting less severe Covid illness, less likely to be hospitalised or in ICU + less likely to die than the unvaxxed. It makes me really sad to know that some of my unvaxxed friends may well be dead this time next year and we, the vaxxed, will have to pick up the pieces and look after their kids. I remember when people got polio etc and it was vaccinations that saved us. Have a little more faith in our wonderful scientists! If they are all vaccinated why on earth would you refuse?
I read the article & many comments with my jaw hanging open in surprise, semi-informed people reinforcing each others’ mistaken ideas.
