Not “we”. What *they* (politicians, bureaucrats, administrators, boards, etc.) have done is criminal, and they need to be held accountable. At the very least they need to be removed from their positions effective immediately.
Lone Ranger: Well, Tonto my old friend, it looks like they've got us surrounded. Looks like we are finished.
Tonto: What do you mean "we", white man?

The use of the term "we" to describe actions taken by the rulers is yet another example of the collectivist euphemisms that have polluted our language, and therefore our thinking.
Groups do not act. Individuals act. There is no "social justice", only individual justice.
This may seem to be squabbling over semantics. It is not. This sort of "groupthink" is an instrumental tool for collectivists to divide and isolate segments of the population so that resistance to their horrors and depredations can be conquered piecemeal, while allies can be manipulated and controlled with carrots and sticks.
Perception is reality. Collectivists have been allowed to define reality in terms of groups rather than individuals, which is fundamental to most of what ails us as a society.
A key step in resisting tyranny is rejecting the thought and language patterns that justify it.
"Racism is simply an ugly form of collectivism, the mindset that views humans strictly as members of groups rather than individuals. Racists believe that all individuals who share superficial physical characteristics are alike: as collectivists, racists think only in terms of groups. by encouraging Americans to adopt a group mentality, the advocates of so-called "diversity" actually perpetuate racism. Their obsession with racial group identity is inherently racist. The true antidote to racism is liberty."
Absolutely right. Unless we are considered as part of one organism which we may be but in far too an abstract way for any public health policy to be able to manage
I live in canada. The problem here is the population cheered on these mandates. We are the minority here. ( of course based on propaganda spewed out by our govt funded media and lying health bureaucrats.
Same here. As soon as I heard they were intent on masking the kids it was a medical exemption or pulling my kid out. Now my kid (7 yrs old) doesn't wear one and knows how to explain the science of aerosol transmission and how the masks CAN NOT work to any teacher or other student that claims they do!
Sometimes? Sounds like my wife who asks me "why are you always right sometimes?".
Of course Americans think they are always right and of course they are not. Neither am I. The whole point is to not become a dictator imposing one's own views, even when some friends think it is right.
Always? Someone wise told me on the eve of my marriage to studiously avoid always in an accusation leveled at my husband. That was probably the third best piece of relationship advice I got. I doubt always in our case. But your wife sounds like a pretty fun lady. Utterly Canadian in her inoffensive nature. You married well.
The people/parents helped do this. Those who have complied and been too cowardly to say no or do whatever it takes to keep this from happening are to blame as well. If I still had children at home I would have done whatever I had to... top ramen and a tent if need be... to keep this from happening to my children. Masks were never lawful. They were "rules" made up out of no where. I do get your point for sure tho
I so agree! Parents are just as responsible as the ‘system’ that required the masking of children. They didn’t stand up, they complied, slapped a mask on their children and went on down the road. And they cannot use the lame cop out of “what else was I supposed to do”. There was always another alternative, but if you don’t have a spine, nor the Mama Bear or Papa Bear attitude that you will protect your children at all costs, then you get what you get…a psychologically damaged child who be dependent and compliant, just as you were!
my fear was that many/most of them would have been so terrified that they would be unable to NOT wear masks (numerous children have run in terror from my un-masked face) ... seeing this makes me feel much better .... could it be red state vs blue state kids? - NV is almost purple?
Never understood the children thing. They are the future.
Early on I remember a conversation about the risks to society. Discussing the measures. In theory, the society would recognize that the sick, lame, old.. are expendable in a crisis. Not callously expendable, it is not about wishing them harm. Rather the tribe must endure.. and it will through its children. The past can be reasonably sacrificed if the future can be secured.
Measures were taken for the now.. and not the future.
These kids are going to need the entire world to help normalize their human experience.
By now, it seems a growing number of people believe this plandemic was a coordinated OVERT attack. The puppet masters have not even hidden their agenda when what they are doing has never made sense to logical, informed people. Real science has been turned upside down by those who espouse scientism. The sheep merely follow and regurgitate the lies. The other side has been in capable of critical thought. The other side‘s true believers will swear to their deity the science is changed overnight as one way to cope with their cognitive dissonance.
It's like War 2.0. Aided and abetted from within. People are just waking up to it. For many, it will be too late. People just starting to just drop everywhere now. I'm more angry at the dupes that just went along with it, like "muh authorities know what is best for me." Ugh.
I overheard a mid level beaurocrat at a major medical center bragging about forcing her employees to wear N95 masks because they are impossible to breathe through and people break down and give in to the vax if they have to wear them too long. They know it's torture.
That makes no sense. My husband is an HR manager and all companies are desperate to hire - you might even say it's an "employee market". So if some dingbat said that the joke is on her.
That is horrible. Somehow, I find such torture, done with intent, worse than the same torture done through ignorance (of the evil intent of the sociopaths higher up the food chain). But maybe it's a false moral distinction, and they should all hang.
"they are the future"...exactly, which is why they must be acclimatised and brainwashed. Oldies are toast and no need to convince them, the younger generations are the ones the whole control thing is aimed at. We all know how successful that ahs been in the West's education systems, the brainwashing is almost complete, now the physical accustomisation (is that a word?) to control measures is afoot.
This is exactly why, because these kids are our future, and according to the WEF, we have none.
The future - as we stand now - belongs exclusively to WEF's "young future global leaders", their clones and machines. The whole planet, kingdom of a small cabal of brainwashed, with Schwab as their God. No room or need for useless eaters.
This is why all this abuse and oppression is inflicted on the "pure bloods".
No. Measures were indeed taken for the future. Just not the future as you imagine. That is the crux: the war over who we are - and whether or not we have a say in our future. Why do you think they ALWAYS go after the children?
The moral and righteous choices of how our kids' lives are to be lived is the battlefront. Not "masks" or "public health/safety". To determine how you are to rear your children, is to own you. To hand them over to this unrighteous authority, is to own your future.
Not being able to decide what is best for your child because covid is not a casualty of the moment, but merely a slightly starker proposition relative to those already behind us in a long progression toward a future that does not belong to you.
Our culture is already well down river of such compromises with evil.
"Your kids belong to us" said aloud is only possible because our shared past has already been set aflame, long since deemed unrighteous and sinful to the moral arbiters of Progress, the continuity of who we are broken so that it can be cleansed of original sin and remade into something else.
Not because some "unprecedented" covid emergency. In fact, the perpetual dire circumstance of the "now" is precisely what we call Progress; the highest moral value in the land animated by these never-ending emergencies and threats dragged through time.
Covid is not a cause but a symptom.
Their version of the future has been in the works for a long time already. Their future, we have been told time and again, is inevitable.
The incremental destruction of the past and the perpetual yoking of the present to plow toward their version of that future has now become how we define who we are and what we value. Our children do not need the entire world, they need their parents to fight the actual fight for the right to define who we are and the future in which they will live.
You have to start when they are malleable. Conformity to the state who is your real caring parent and continual supplier or all your lifelong needs. The cost is small my little ones!
Gato, for some time now, I have been tring to get sample masks tested to understand exactly what is in them and how they behave in situ: chemicals (dyes, fabric treatments, possible fire retardants, volatiles), particles, etc. Every argument in favor of masking seems to fall back upon ' well, it can't hurt.' How do we know this? What happens when these are worn 8 hours a day for years? What occurs when the fabric, paper, or plastic is exposed to moisture, elevated temp, even chewed (little kids)? WE DON'T KNOW. I've appealed to our Board of Ed and chem dept. faculty I know at a local univ. There is no interest. No one wants to touch this. Many masks come from China. Fabric masks made in USA may use bolts of fabric from China. What chemicals are in these?
I have finally found a lab that, hesitatingly, agreed to test some samples. I am so concerned that we are a few years away from an epidemic of lung cancers and other lung diseases in our children. I have no idea if this lab will come through, so I leave this appeal with anyone with access to an appropriate lab/equipment. What is in these masks and what occurs to them when breathed through 8+ hours a day?
Apart from being of no use whatsover regarding this tiny respiratory virus, these facial masks before were only being used in CONTROLLED settings like hospital to make sure they r properly used and exchanged to limit their harm when perverting into a retro-infection petri dish for all kinds of breathed out germs when a critical mass is being breathed back in, or CO2 poisoning ... apart from the fact that they WORSEN the respiratory infection risk: as germs encapsulated within droplets are being spit into the mask that afterwards works like a multiplying vaporizer with every additional out-going breath ...
Masks themselves may or may not be toxic, there's surely lint floating around in little lungs all the time. But I recall some parents sent in their kids' used masks for testing and found all sorts of horrible bacterium and viral particles festering on them. Ligionella, staph, psuedomonas, etc.
My daughter is an RN in a hospital, always masked now due to no shot. This has made her very ill. She has a history of chronic sinusitis, asthma, allergies. I’m very angry about it. The paper masks have plastic fibers in them, that’s about all I know. No longer allowed to wear cloth masks at work.
Never once wore a mask knowing that they were the single biggest lie of the whole charade. This video perfectly sums up how humans actually feel about covering their face and I pray that the memory of this time will inspire people to NEVER do this again.
This blog is as close to a complete catalogue of all the worst pro-mandate arguments as we have. I gotta say, "There's no need to get rid of X restriction because I/someone I know/some group of people can put up with it" is one of my least favourites. Yesterday I saw someone claim that there's no urgency to stop masking children because if the Canadian Women's hockey team can play a whole game in masks, it can't be that big a deal. The fact that people will do lots of things they wouldn't otherwise do when coerced is usually elided in this argument.
So blinkered by the propaganda are kids in my neck of the woods that after the tyrannical satrap of my state was forced to lift the mandate, the vast majority in the local ginormous public high school still wear them. On social media a picture was posted of a student parading around the hallways with a sandwich board proclaiming, "Pull up your fucking mask you dummy!"
It goes without saying that the signs declaring "In this house, we believe in science, yada, blah, etc" are ubiquitous on front lawns in this neighborhood. Virtue must always be signaled, lest anyone doubt your righteousness.
On display last night at a popular local restaurant: three virtue signaling Libs proudly and loudly comparing the efficacy of their designer N95 masks while everyone else was unmasked. Pathetic.
Like so much illuminated by the covid response, the real question is whether people will accept that the covid is some 'unprecedented' condition that has suddenly created this anti-child, anti-science behavior in the teachers or if they will keep peeling the wallpaper.
We have a culture that has seen fit to ritually abuse children for fiat virtue and to quell the fear and anxiety of a spiritually vacant and socially cannibalistic lives.
Cultures that sacrifice their children are not long for the world. The covid and the masks and concentration camp schoolyards are low-hanging fruit. But what of 'climate change', 'systemic racism', rainbow mafia, and the rest of the identity politik that has been torturing and poisoning kids for generations? Will that mask come off?
Agree. All things borne of the inversion will fall. The problem is those things have been allowed to supplant our natural social infrastructure, aka what the kids believe to be "the real world", for quite a while.
Entropy is rather unforgiving to those proximate to its wont. Time plus gravity, on bridges built by the theater club. How dare you! Set designers are quite talented.
But who will pay to build a new bridge when the Director of progress walks off the job? Will they (who are they? Exactly.) even know how? We haven't even gotten the bill for the first Hamilton bridge yet.
Long ago our people decided the kids would pay. Not their kids, but your kids. Well not your kids, but somebody else's kids. Maybe not OUR kids today, but perhaps their kids-kids someday. Thats the mask of rationalization to prevent the logic from being taken to its obvious conclusion.
Covid masks on kids are just one of a multitude of signs of that, if one cares to look, starts to reveal the right questions, which are more important than debating "facts" in a post-fact culture run by psychopaths and demons and men in sundresses.
When you ask the right questions, e.g. for what purpose? you get the right answers: obviously masks work. Now you begin to see the error and futility of the debate over the wrong questions, as defined by our enemies. A better solution: shovel+tarp+lime. Like in the before times when we had a social immune system.
So, when the masks go away, does asking the right questions go away too? Thats my beat. I am optimistic, but also skeptical. Which seems contradictory, except that we are on the internet. Anything is possible!
Hatefacts! The good news is the Truth is on our side. The bad news is that we rely too much upon that truth when debating the enemies of the Truth itself after they have already asserted their will upon us.
We use reason and evidence but too often apply it downstream of accepting the premise of their argument as legitimate and moral. It is not, on either count.
How well masks work is irrelevant. To enter into such debates affords their anti-reality legitimacy. To win such debates with facts is to toss the rabbit into his briar patch.
Given what we already know of child development, further informed by simple observable reality over the past two years, setting aside the generations of experience turned on upside down or buried, to muzzle kids is so far off the plot it can only be summed up as Satanic and thus negotiating with anything less than cleansing fire is futile.
We'll get a supercut of you saying racial slurs, even if we have to record you for hours and edit each syllable together! Haha, GOTCHA! No more Spotify for you!
I'll keep saying it. "I'd die for my kids" didn't used to rate 5 Pinocchios. Jen Psaki snidely retorting that her kid was fine with masking was all the proof anyone needs (though she'd already given plenty) that she's as vile a human being as you'll ever find anywhere. But she's just representative of a generation of "the good side" for whom children are lifestyle ornaments and nothing more. I guess it's good that so many who think of themselves as "progressive" (or worse) are choosing not to have kids but God do I pity their pets.
Writer Daniel Horowitz recently posted a message on Twitter that his speech therapist sister sent to him. It's horrifying what she is seeing in little kids who have been wearing masks. The quote is:
My sister who is a speech therapist in MD just texted me: “The speech issues I see with three and four year olds that have been masked I’ve never seen before in 22 years. So much low muscle tone, drooling, unusual articulation errors on early developing sounds…”
More from my speech therapist sister: "This kid’s whole mouth area was chapped from the drool accumulated around the mask. She can’t achieve lip closure for the B M and P sounds because her lips are so chapped."
"Even if the kids were not masked, all of the adults are masked, and the children can’t see the oral motor movements made by the adults. They don’t know that to produce a B sound the lips have to come together.
"One child today didn’t realize that you have to put your tongue behind your teeth to produce a T sound. This is a typically developing child in all other areas.
"These types of articulation errors are usually seen with children who have neurological impairments or syndromes with associated speech and language impairments. I’ve never had so many referrals in my life for young healthy children with such severe articulation impairments." (Link: https://twitter.com/RMConservative/status/1491417997470277646)
This was always about control. Creating obedience, by breaking wills. I’ve watched generation after generation become more obedient and more ‘safe’ starting with mine- the elder millennials. No more!
Clearly these children have more sense than a majority of adults… Mask Zombies still a majority here in England two weeks after mask mandate timed out and was not renewed.
As a matter of fact, I did a count today, while walking on a street in South London. I would say one third were wearing masks, but just a few were fully muzzled (scared eyes and distance aware, everyone knows the type), most were wearing the nappies on their chin, or on their mouths only. Don't ask me why, I think it's a habit for them now.
I am so glad the tide is finally shifting on this. I live in a blue area and have not once masked my kids. I have gotten no end of grief and had many people unwilling to associate with me again. But goodness knows, I will never get an apology when the fallout happens from the damaged caused. But my kids’ mental health will be its own reward, I hope.
okay, if I do not like something, I am pretty sure kiddos do not like it. So, it is really sad to hear these dopey lefty loons say "my child loves wearing a mask" or does not mind or anything related to wearing masks. It is just psycho. The left is psycho and they want all of us to be like them.
It's amazing that in our hyper-risk averse response to a bad flu year, so little thought was given to the risks we were forcing on children.
Not from Covid, they were never at any meaningful risk from that and we knew that from the beginning.
From an unnecessary, essentially untested (especially in children), experimental "vaccine" for a disease they barely got and fought off easily.
From socialization years, years that can never be replaced, lost to pointless masking.
From mindless "Social distancing" (an Orwellian term if ever there was one) that someone pulled out of their arse and served no real-world purpose.
From (even more) sub-standard Zoom schooling (gotta give the teacher's union credit for coming up with an even less useful education system).
From imbecilic lock downs that kept them prisoner indoors to no good purpose and for no good reason.
Every NPI and PI used, most of which would have been unthinkable pre-2020, inflicted the maximum amount of damage, especially to children, and no measurable benefit.
It's hard to believe that was random chance.
As a society we should be ashamed, and we should demand that those responsible pay for their unconscionable and indefensible crimes against an entire generation.
As a parent in Washington state, excuse me while I throw up a little when I hear “the kids don’t mind the mask”. I don’t know what has possessed parents. I’ve been conflicted for months about pulling my kids out of public school (we utilize some special services). Signed up the youngest for preschool next fall and the info packet says they are asking 3 year olds to mask up as long as the public health order remains! Now whether this is enforced I don’t know but it’s just unconscionable.
I have started hanging signs in my neighborhood (I live near 3 public schools) on light poles with slogans like "Kids! Take off your mask and throw it in the trash, Breathe, live, smile! It's your right!" Or "masks are useless, but smiles are contagious, share on today!" I've taken my 2 young kids with me when I do this, so now my 5 year old makes signs and hangs them all over our house: a picture of a mask with a line through it, then he makes us write "no masks allowed"! I have created a monster!!
How sad that children have absorbed a harsh lesson in who controls their lives, who metes out punishment and who releases them from arbitrarily imposed bondage.
Behind me in the checkout at the grocery store was a masked mom and her two masked children. In Texas, where there are no mandates. Most people in the store were unmasked—though the company required the employees to wear them.
The barest minimum of common sense would tell the mom that masking is pointless—otherwise all the unmasked would be sick and everyone would learn from observation that masking is necessary. Then there’s the damage to the children’s brain development and other problems.
I hurt for that family. But I had no idea how to help.
I'm now coming to grips with that kind of thing this way: those parents did not just start doing these kinds of stupidities to their kids. This is just the latest manifestation. Those kids were "doomed" to their futures the moment they emerged from the womb.
It's sad to see, but similar sht has been happening to those kids, and would've continued happening to those kids absent the pandemic, just out of the public eye, IMO.
Illinois school mask mandate is falling! Our school district yesterday informed us the mask mandate for students no longer stands! Here's how they worded it,"While we believe we remain subject to the governor's executive orders, enforcement has become impossible and disruptive. We no longer have the ability to maintain universal masking in our schools."
Yes, they are that pathetic. Maybe the demonstration outside the school board office a couple days ago pushed them over the edge. The passing honking cars was too "disruptive" for the "doctor" (Phd) superintendent!
BTW, all the teachers were still masked when we got to school, just like me and the fam predicted. My husband told the kids, "Maybe you should bring masks in case the teacher collapses" Then I said, "Yes, then the masks finally would save their life, just like they always thought it would!"
Teacher here. Masks are useless, and at this point, immoral when forced upon children. I cannot tell you how much a child’s learning changes when they are forced to mask.
They are finally relaxing mask “standards” for my county in CA… except for kids and teachers, that is. So grandma can shop unfettered at Costco while the kids wear a face diaper in my classroom.
Masking children has always been child abuse. That parents have abdicated their first responsibility - protecting their children - in allowing it and promoting it, tells you everything.
Love the kids and I don't even have any! I hate everyone that was involved in this charade for the past 2 years...just awful, evil people with no hope for redemption. At least I know who they are so that's a blessing.
The New York State Department of Health is about to vote on some pretty terrifying amendments that threaten bodily autonomy, freedom, and health, including masks:
They are accepting public comments through February 14. Feel free to draw from, share, and repurpose my articles as needed. Here are a few pertinent to the proposed changes:
"It's a g/d CHILD, you idiot parent! A child does not have the intellectual capacity to understand the consequences of matters that require higher-order thinking!
You are an idiot parent, committing child abuse, and your kid ought to be taken from you and given to a pack of wolves, where the kid has a greater chance of growing up into a productive member of a free society."
What should be done with the "educators" who have tortured our nation's children with these horrible masks?
Clearly those who _ordered_ the mask mandates should be given a fair trial, then hanged for their heinous crime against humanity. That's just obvious.
But what about the rank and file "educators" who did not order, but did implement this policy of mass torture? They are not anywhere near the same class of criminal as those who gave the orders. Yet nevertheless they have done something evil, they have harmed the children whose care had been entrusted to them.
Not all teachers wanted this. Some must surely have enforced the muzzle mandate reluctantly, under duress (either torture the kids with masks, or lose your job and your home). These teachers are not heroes, but neither are they horrible villains. Perhaps they should be given a modest fine - no one gets away with this evil scott free - then let off the hook.
On the other hand there are many stories of teachers who eagerly & sadistically enforced the mask mandates, reveling in the vicious evil of their petty power over the children. These "teachers" are real criminals. They should be jailed for a couple years. Then barred for life from any position where they would interact with other people's children.
The hard part is separating the two classes, filtering the sadistic criminals out from the scared & complacent masses.
The mask thing on children is easy to understand if you understand that married parents are a conservative voting bloc, not progressive. Once you grok that, it makes sense.
Since masking almost certainly correlates to vaccinating, the increase in cases among masked is probably the negative efficacy of the vaccine at work. In data like this, they can't pull the 2 week efficacy shift.
I'm praying for s BIG REVOLT in my district. It's time for large numbers to stop complying. The scary thing is that these are the people charged with educating our children. Clearly, no matter the number of fancy letters behind their names, they aren't qualified. It's hard to comprehend such a large number of "educated" adults being so ignorant or evil, maybe both in one place. Well, then again, look at the Senate, Congress, and Biden. What a mess!!
The first thing you can do to help yourself understand all this is to let go your belief that politicians and their union minions give the slightest shit about your children.
half the children were maskless. Kudos to the parents and the teacher. Nevada's government, esp. Clark county, are repressive cesspools. You'd think not what with all the debauchery, but you'd be wrong. Not everything goes. Mostly those dirtiest of words - personal liberty.
My daughter (11) is the only kid in her school without a mask. I must be the only parent who said no. I’m devastated. She is hearing impaired, and it’s a new school, and she can’t see anyone’s faces, and can’t hear what they are saying. I can’t begin to describe my rage toward our Prime Minister (Jacinda Ardern) and all the cowards who support who.
Like many of your readers, whom I consider my sisters and brothers in this time of dissociation, I was initially uplifted by the joy, and then plunged into renewed rage at the cynical cruelty of the past two years. I wish Hanna Arendt were alive and immune from the hypocrisy of the liberal elite (and I fear she would not be). But surely, this is the “banality of evil”.
Made me cry. 😭 - what we have done to kids is criminal.
Not “we”. What *they* (politicians, bureaucrats, administrators, boards, etc.) have done is criminal, and they need to be held accountable. At the very least they need to be removed from their positions effective immediately.
And parents, don't forget the parents that blindly went along with the others.
vote, select parents for school board and never vote for a totalitarian progressive again

I think she was saying we as a society.
At the very least. As the merest beginning.

we must pledge never again will we abuse children for the gosplay of dumping a virus.

Partly, masks are “vaccine” coercion, a form of no-touch torture.
I overheard a mid level beaurocrat at a major medical center bragging about forcing her employees to wear N95 masks because they are impossible to breathe through and people break down and give in to the vax if they have to wear them too long. They know it's torture.
I watched an HR manager smile with pleasure that a company would never again hire an unvaccinated person.
"virtue" signaler... that company is going to end up in trouble in the long run. you can only wish for karma for the HR jerk.
That makes no sense. My husband is an HR manager and all companies are desperate to hire - you might even say it's an "employee market". So if some dingbat said that the joke is on her.
Believe me, I was gobsmacked.
The mandates are already in employment letters for large Canadian companies.
That is horrible. Somehow, I find such torture, done with intent, worse than the same torture done through ignorance (of the evil intent of the sociopaths higher up the food chain). But maybe it's a false moral distinction, and they should all hang.
"they are the future"...exactly, which is why they must be acclimatised and brainwashed. Oldies are toast and no need to convince them, the younger generations are the ones the whole control thing is aimed at. We all know how successful that ahs been in the West's education systems, the brainwashing is almost complete, now the physical accustomisation (is that a word?) to control measures is afoot.
☣
This is exactly why, because these kids are our future, and according to the WEF, we have none.
The future - as we stand now - belongs exclusively to WEF's "young future global leaders", their clones and machines. The whole planet, kingdom of a small cabal of brainwashed, with Schwab as their God. No room or need for useless eaters.
This is why all this abuse and oppression is inflicted on the "pure bloods".
We don't want to die, as ordered.
No. Measures were indeed taken for the future. Just not the future as you imagine. That is the crux: the war over who we are - and whether or not we have a say in our future. Why do you think they ALWAYS go after the children?
The moral and righteous choices of how our kids' lives are to be lived is the battlefront. Not "masks" or "public health/safety". To determine how you are to rear your children, is to own you. To hand them over to this unrighteous authority, is to own your future.
Not being able to decide what is best for your child because covid is not a casualty of the moment, but merely a slightly starker proposition relative to those already behind us in a long progression toward a future that does not belong to you.
Our culture is already well down river of such compromises with evil.
"Your kids belong to us" said aloud is only possible because our shared past has already been set aflame, long since deemed unrighteous and sinful to the moral arbiters of Progress, the continuity of who we are broken so that it can be cleansed of original sin and remade into something else.
Not because some "unprecedented" covid emergency. In fact, the perpetual dire circumstance of the "now" is precisely what we call Progress; the highest moral value in the land animated by these never-ending emergencies and threats dragged through time.
Covid is not a cause but a symptom.
Their version of the future has been in the works for a long time already. Their future, we have been told time and again, is inevitable.
The incremental destruction of the past and the perpetual yoking of the present to plow toward their version of that future has now become how we define who we are and what we value. Our children do not need the entire world, they need their parents to fight the actual fight for the right to define who we are and the future in which they will live.
Outstanding comment (and true, too). Thank you.
You have to start when they are malleable. Conformity to the state who is your real caring parent and continual supplier or all your lifelong needs. The cost is small my little ones!
Hansel and Gretel
Gato, for some time now, I have been tring to get sample masks tested to understand exactly what is in them and how they behave in situ: chemicals (dyes, fabric treatments, possible fire retardants, volatiles), particles, etc. Every argument in favor of masking seems to fall back upon ' well, it can't hurt.' How do we know this? What happens when these are worn 8 hours a day for years? What occurs when the fabric, paper, or plastic is exposed to moisture, elevated temp, even chewed (little kids)? WE DON'T KNOW. I've appealed to our Board of Ed and chem dept. faculty I know at a local univ. There is no interest. No one wants to touch this. Many masks come from China. Fabric masks made in USA may use bolts of fabric from China. What chemicals are in these?
I have finally found a lab that, hesitatingly, agreed to test some samples. I am so concerned that we are a few years away from an epidemic of lung cancers and other lung diseases in our children. I have no idea if this lab will come through, so I leave this appeal with anyone with access to an appropriate lab/equipment. What is in these masks and what occurs to them when breathed through 8+ hours a day?
Apart from being of no use whatsover regarding this tiny respiratory virus, these facial masks before were only being used in CONTROLLED settings like hospital to make sure they r properly used and exchanged to limit their harm when perverting into a retro-infection petri dish for all kinds of breathed out germs when a critical mass is being breathed back in, or CO2 poisoning ... apart from the fact that they WORSEN the respiratory infection risk: as germs encapsulated within droplets are being spit into the mask that afterwards works like a multiplying vaporizer with every additional out-going breath ...
Our bodies weren’t designed to re-breathe our dirty air!
Masks themselves may or may not be toxic, there's surely lint floating around in little lungs all the time. But I recall some parents sent in their kids' used masks for testing and found all sorts of horrible bacterium and viral particles festering on them. Ligionella, staph, psuedomonas, etc.
There was a study reported on last year here...https://townhall.com/tipsheet/scottmorefield/2021/06/15/a-group-of-parents-sent-their-kids-face-masks-to-a-lab-for-analysis-heres-what-they-found-n2591047
It was updated w some "fact checkers", too, at the end.
My daughter is an RN in a hospital, always masked now due to no shot. This has made her very ill. She has a history of chronic sinusitis, asthma, allergies. I’m very angry about it. The paper masks have plastic fibers in them, that’s about all I know. No longer allowed to wear cloth masks at work.
A new study recently published in the Italian Journal of Infectious Medicine is titled, “Pilot study on burden of fungal contamination in face masks: need for better mask hygiene in the COVID-19 era.” That’s right. The study describes finding LOTS of fungus on kids’ face masks. Out of 50 masks, fungal contamination was found on 35 of 50 (70%) masks tested. Dec. 2021 - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/357221512_Pilot_study_on_burden_of_fungal_contamination_in_face_masks_need_for_better_mask_hygiene_in_the_COVID-19_era
But my child does not mind being castrated and injected with hormones, so that we can get likes on TikTok…
😢
Never once wore a mask knowing that they were the single biggest lie of the whole charade. This video perfectly sums up how humans actually feel about covering their face and I pray that the memory of this time will inspire people to NEVER do this again.
I wore one to get into Whole Foods. I confess.
This blog is as close to a complete catalogue of all the worst pro-mandate arguments as we have. I gotta say, "There's no need to get rid of X restriction because I/someone I know/some group of people can put up with it" is one of my least favourites. Yesterday I saw someone claim that there's no urgency to stop masking children because if the Canadian Women's hockey team can play a whole game in masks, it can't be that big a deal. The fact that people will do lots of things they wouldn't otherwise do when coerced is usually elided in this argument.
So blinkered by the propaganda are kids in my neck of the woods that after the tyrannical satrap of my state was forced to lift the mandate, the vast majority in the local ginormous public high school still wear them. On social media a picture was posted of a student parading around the hallways with a sandwich board proclaiming, "Pull up your fucking mask you dummy!"
It goes without saying that the signs declaring "In this house, we believe in science, yada, blah, etc" are ubiquitous on front lawns in this neighborhood. Virtue must always be signaled, lest anyone doubt your righteousness.
On display last night at a popular local restaurant: three virtue signaling Libs proudly and loudly comparing the efficacy of their designer N95 masks while everyone else was unmasked. Pathetic.
These people are inhabitants of a different world altogether. One not based in reality.
Somebody in the restaurant should have shouted, "which one is best at making you shut your piehole?"
Must’ve been difficult to keep from punching them in the face.
It sounds like Cambridge, Maskachusetts, filled with mask and jab fanatics following TheScience(
TM). We had to move away.
Maskholes and vaxholes.
I am contemplating the same.
And generally, the ones proclaiming their virtue most loudly are the ones without virtue!
Factcheck: TRUE!
Those kids are going to be so upset when Mommy Karen makes them wear a mask to school on Monday.
Future mega-rebels in the making. Stuff works in mysterious ways.
웃 유
They better be. Their very survival depends on it.
Love the kid’s reaction in the video.
Like so much illuminated by the covid response, the real question is whether people will accept that the covid is some 'unprecedented' condition that has suddenly created this anti-child, anti-science behavior in the teachers or if they will keep peeling the wallpaper.
We have a culture that has seen fit to ritually abuse children for fiat virtue and to quell the fear and anxiety of a spiritually vacant and socially cannibalistic lives.
Cultures that sacrifice their children are not long for the world. The covid and the masks and concentration camp schoolyards are low-hanging fruit. But what of 'climate change', 'systemic racism', rainbow mafia, and the rest of the identity politik that has been torturing and poisoning kids for generations? Will that mask come off?
The Rainbow Mafia (excellent moniker) is either in the late-stage death throes of eating itself or humanity is over. I think it's the former.
Agree. All things borne of the inversion will fall. The problem is those things have been allowed to supplant our natural social infrastructure, aka what the kids believe to be "the real world", for quite a while.
Entropy is rather unforgiving to those proximate to its wont. Time plus gravity, on bridges built by the theater club. How dare you! Set designers are quite talented.
But who will pay to build a new bridge when the Director of progress walks off the job? Will they (who are they? Exactly.) even know how? We haven't even gotten the bill for the first Hamilton bridge yet.
Long ago our people decided the kids would pay. Not their kids, but your kids. Well not your kids, but somebody else's kids. Maybe not OUR kids today, but perhaps their kids-kids someday. Thats the mask of rationalization to prevent the logic from being taken to its obvious conclusion.
Covid masks on kids are just one of a multitude of signs of that, if one cares to look, starts to reveal the right questions, which are more important than debating "facts" in a post-fact culture run by psychopaths and demons and men in sundresses.
When you ask the right questions, e.g. for what purpose? you get the right answers: obviously masks work. Now you begin to see the error and futility of the debate over the wrong questions, as defined by our enemies. A better solution: shovel+tarp+lime. Like in the before times when we had a social immune system.
So, when the masks go away, does asking the right questions go away too? Thats my beat. I am optimistic, but also skeptical. Which seems contradictory, except that we are on the internet. Anything is possible!
virus=1 micron, holes in mask= 100+ microns
100 x 100 = 10000+ theoretical covid viruses can blow through a single mask pore at the same time
Hatefacts! The good news is the Truth is on our side. The bad news is that we rely too much upon that truth when debating the enemies of the Truth itself after they have already asserted their will upon us.
We use reason and evidence but too often apply it downstream of accepting the premise of their argument as legitimate and moral. It is not, on either count.
How well masks work is irrelevant. To enter into such debates affords their anti-reality legitimacy. To win such debates with facts is to toss the rabbit into his briar patch.
Given what we already know of child development, further informed by simple observable reality over the past two years, setting aside the generations of experience turned on upside down or buried, to muzzle kids is so far off the plot it can only be summed up as Satanic and thus negotiating with anything less than cleansing fire is futile.
Ray, there you go again espousing real science over scientism. How dare you?
im sure i'll be cancelled and de-personed soon
We'll get a supercut of you saying racial slurs, even if we have to record you for hours and edit each syllable together! Haha, GOTCHA! No more Spotify for you!
i was really happy on Spotify with R Kelly, but that Joe Rogen, what a monster!
There u go spouting climate denying rhetoric 😂😂
Seems racist and patriarchal too. 🤣
LoL 😂
oh i can take that apart quite easily too ;)
I'll keep saying it. "I'd die for my kids" didn't used to rate 5 Pinocchios. Jen Psaki snidely retorting that her kid was fine with masking was all the proof anyone needs (though she'd already given plenty) that she's as vile a human being as you'll ever find anywhere. But she's just representative of a generation of "the good side" for whom children are lifestyle ornaments and nothing more. I guess it's good that so many who think of themselves as "progressive" (or worse) are choosing not to have kids but God do I pity their pets.
The masks are slowly going but are we in the eye of the storm?

Unfortunately, yes.
I do believe this is an accurate description of this moment.
Writer Daniel Horowitz recently posted a message on Twitter that his speech therapist sister sent to him. It's horrifying what she is seeing in little kids who have been wearing masks. The quote is:
My sister who is a speech therapist in MD just texted me: “The speech issues I see with three and four year olds that have been masked I’ve never seen before in 22 years. So much low muscle tone, drooling, unusual articulation errors on early developing sounds…”
More from my speech therapist sister: "This kid’s whole mouth area was chapped from the drool accumulated around the mask. She can’t achieve lip closure for the B M and P sounds because her lips are so chapped."
"Even if the kids were not masked, all of the adults are masked, and the children can’t see the oral motor movements made by the adults. They don’t know that to produce a B sound the lips have to come together.
"One child today didn’t realize that you have to put your tongue behind your teeth to produce a T sound. This is a typically developing child in all other areas.
"These types of articulation errors are usually seen with children who have neurological impairments or syndromes with associated speech and language impairments. I’ve never had so many referrals in my life for young healthy children with such severe articulation impairments." (Link: https://twitter.com/RMConservative/status/1491417997470277646)
On a more positive note, a doctor in the U.S. sent a letter to all patients telling them that he will no longer allow masking of children in his office. You can see it here: https://markmcdonaldmd.substack.com/p/i-have-banned-child-masking-in-my
This was always about control. Creating obedience, by breaking wills. I’ve watched generation after generation become more obedient and more ‘safe’ starting with mine- the elder millennials. No more!
Clearly these children have more sense than a majority of adults… Mask Zombies still a majority here in England two weeks after mask mandate timed out and was not renewed.

As a matter of fact, I did a count today, while walking on a street in South London. I would say one third were wearing masks, but just a few were fully muzzled (scared eyes and distance aware, everyone knows the type), most were wearing the nappies on their chin, or on their mouths only. Don't ask me why, I think it's a habit for them now.
Masks are like baseball caps worn back to front or peak to one side - intelligence indicators.

Imagine a world where thinking would be expensive. Compared to it, "Idiocracy" would look like an assembly at the Nobel Prize.
Although now it's still free, and we aren't far from it...
I am so glad the tide is finally shifting on this. I live in a blue area and have not once masked my kids. I have gotten no end of grief and had many people unwilling to associate with me again. But goodness knows, I will never get an apology when the fallout happens from the damaged caused. But my kids’ mental health will be its own reward, I hope.
okay, if I do not like something, I am pretty sure kiddos do not like it. So, it is really sad to hear these dopey lefty loons say "my child loves wearing a mask" or does not mind or anything related to wearing masks. It is just psycho. The left is psycho and they want all of us to be like them.
NO
It's amazing that in our hyper-risk averse response to a bad flu year, so little thought was given to the risks we were forcing on children.
Not from Covid, they were never at any meaningful risk from that and we knew that from the beginning.
From an unnecessary, essentially untested (especially in children), experimental "vaccine" for a disease they barely got and fought off easily.
From socialization years, years that can never be replaced, lost to pointless masking.
From mindless "Social distancing" (an Orwellian term if ever there was one) that someone pulled out of their arse and served no real-world purpose.
From (even more) sub-standard Zoom schooling (gotta give the teacher's union credit for coming up with an even less useful education system).
From imbecilic lock downs that kept them prisoner indoors to no good purpose and for no good reason.
Every NPI and PI used, most of which would have been unthinkable pre-2020, inflicted the maximum amount of damage, especially to children, and no measurable benefit.
It's hard to believe that was random chance.
As a society we should be ashamed, and we should demand that those responsible pay for their unconscionable and indefensible crimes against an entire generation.
As a parent in Washington state, excuse me while I throw up a little when I hear “the kids don’t mind the mask”. I don’t know what has possessed parents. I’ve been conflicted for months about pulling my kids out of public school (we utilize some special services). Signed up the youngest for preschool next fall and the info packet says they are asking 3 year olds to mask up as long as the public health order remains! Now whether this is enforced I don’t know but it’s just unconscionable.
If I had a kid I would indoctrinate them to be anti mask ASAP
I have started hanging signs in my neighborhood (I live near 3 public schools) on light poles with slogans like "Kids! Take off your mask and throw it in the trash, Breathe, live, smile! It's your right!" Or "masks are useless, but smiles are contagious, share on today!" I've taken my 2 young kids with me when I do this, so now my 5 year old makes signs and hangs them all over our house: a picture of a mask with a line through it, then he makes us write "no masks allowed"! I have created a monster!!
This is the last bridge to cross. I hope my kids can be free soon.
☂
I wish. But as long as the WEF and the rest of the cabal are alive on this planet, expect much worse to come.
Agreed , we must all remain @ defcon 4!!!
How sad that children have absorbed a harsh lesson in who controls their lives, who metes out punishment and who releases them from arbitrarily imposed bondage.
Mission accomplished.
Well said. And terrifying.
Behind me in the checkout at the grocery store was a masked mom and her two masked children. In Texas, where there are no mandates. Most people in the store were unmasked—though the company required the employees to wear them.
The barest minimum of common sense would tell the mom that masking is pointless—otherwise all the unmasked would be sick and everyone would learn from observation that masking is necessary. Then there’s the damage to the children’s brain development and other problems.
I hurt for that family. But I had no idea how to help.
I'm now coming to grips with that kind of thing this way: those parents did not just start doing these kinds of stupidities to their kids. This is just the latest manifestation. Those kids were "doomed" to their futures the moment they emerged from the womb.
It's sad to see, but similar sht has been happening to those kids, and would've continued happening to those kids absent the pandemic, just out of the public eye, IMO.
Yeah. Because it’s a disease, a mental disorder. You’re probably right.
I hate to see it though.
Why are we STILL talking about utterly useless masks???
Y'know how the virus is gonna virus? Well, tyrants gonna tyrant.
Illinois school mask mandate is falling! Our school district yesterday informed us the mask mandate for students no longer stands! Here's how they worded it,"While we believe we remain subject to the governor's executive orders, enforcement has become impossible and disruptive. We no longer have the ability to maintain universal masking in our schools."
Yes, they are that pathetic. Maybe the demonstration outside the school board office a couple days ago pushed them over the edge. The passing honking cars was too "disruptive" for the "doctor" (Phd) superintendent!
BTW, all the teachers were still masked when we got to school, just like me and the fam predicted. My husband told the kids, "Maybe you should bring masks in case the teacher collapses" Then I said, "Yes, then the masks finally would save their life, just like they always thought it would!"
Teacher here. Masks are useless, and at this point, immoral when forced upon children. I cannot tell you how much a child’s learning changes when they are forced to mask.
They are finally relaxing mask “standards” for my county in CA… except for kids and teachers, that is. So grandma can shop unfettered at Costco while the kids wear a face diaper in my classroom.
Clearly this has nothing to do with safety.
Masking children has always been child abuse. That parents have abdicated their first responsibility - protecting their children - in allowing it and promoting it, tells you everything.
Never forget that this was all due to cowardice
Home school children. Take your freedom now and stop waiting for the communist overlords to grant it to you.
If they win, they will try to ban homeschooling and try to make blue collar work obsolete as soon as possible. These are their weaknesses.
Love the kids and I don't even have any! I hate everyone that was involved in this charade for the past 2 years...just awful, evil people with no hope for redemption. At least I know who they are so that's a blessing.
The New York State Department of Health is about to vote on some pretty terrifying amendments that threaten bodily autonomy, freedom, and health, including masks:

The Socialist Republic of America is now officially a marxist shithole.
Nobody expects common sense coming out of there.
"It's a g/d CHILD, you idiot parent! A child does not have the intellectual capacity to understand the consequences of matters that require higher-order thinking!
You are an idiot parent, committing child abuse, and your kid ought to be taken from you and given to a pack of wolves, where the kid has a greater chance of growing up into a productive member of a free society."
What should be done with the "educators" who have tortured our nation's children with these horrible masks?
Clearly those who _ordered_ the mask mandates should be given a fair trial, then hanged for their heinous crime against humanity. That's just obvious.
But what about the rank and file "educators" who did not order, but did implement this policy of mass torture? They are not anywhere near the same class of criminal as those who gave the orders. Yet nevertheless they have done something evil, they have harmed the children whose care had been entrusted to them.
Not all teachers wanted this. Some must surely have enforced the muzzle mandate reluctantly, under duress (either torture the kids with masks, or lose your job and your home). These teachers are not heroes, but neither are they horrible villains. Perhaps they should be given a modest fine - no one gets away with this evil scott free - then let off the hook.
On the other hand there are many stories of teachers who eagerly & sadistically enforced the mask mandates, reveling in the vicious evil of their petty power over the children. These "teachers" are real criminals. They should be jailed for a couple years. Then barred for life from any position where they would interact with other people's children.
The hard part is separating the two classes, filtering the sadistic criminals out from the scared & complacent masses.
I liked one of the Twitter comments-- the science didn't change, the polls did.

My favorite comments:
"Americans have a sick idea of what freedom is"
"This is staged"
"This is satanic"
The mask thing on children is easy to understand if you understand that married parents are a conservative voting bloc, not progressive. Once you grok that, it makes sense.
I truly wish all the Karens and Neils would be MANDATED to watch this !
Since masking almost certainly correlates to vaccinating, the increase in cases among masked is probably the negative efficacy of the vaccine at work. In data like this, they can't pull the 2 week efficacy shift.
I'm praying for s BIG REVOLT in my district. It's time for large numbers to stop complying. The scary thing is that these are the people charged with educating our children. Clearly, no matter the number of fancy letters behind their names, they aren't qualified. It's hard to comprehend such a large number of "educated" adults being so ignorant or evil, maybe both in one place. Well, then again, look at the Senate, Congress, and Biden. What a mess!!
The first thing you can do to help yourself understand all this is to let go your belief that politicians and their union minions give the slightest shit about your children.
half the children were maskless. Kudos to the parents and the teacher. Nevada's government, esp. Clark county, are repressive cesspools. You'd think not what with all the debauchery, but you'd be wrong. Not everything goes. Mostly those dirtiest of words - personal liberty.
Can someone explain to me the chart after it was normalized for community case rate of 373? How did the masked cases drop?
Seviniyorlar ama maskeyi çıkartıp atanda yok. Ben mi yanlış anladım acaba.
My daughter (11) is the only kid in her school without a mask. I must be the only parent who said no. I’m devastated. She is hearing impaired, and it’s a new school, and she can’t see anyone’s faces, and can’t hear what they are saying. I can’t begin to describe my rage toward our Prime Minister (Jacinda Ardern) and all the cowards who support who.
Crazy!!
Why tomorrow? Why next week? Why not today? Why not RIGHT NOW, teacher? Free the children, you evil tool!
The video made me tear up a bit. Gosh what people have been doing to kids is so evil. I wish more parents would stand up for them.
Like many of your readers, whom I consider my sisters and brothers in this time of dissociation, I was initially uplifted by the joy, and then plunged into renewed rage at the cynical cruelty of the past two years. I wish Hanna Arendt were alive and immune from the hypocrisy of the liberal elite (and I fear she would not be). But surely, this is the “banality of evil”.
