After reading this, I've figured out that I've been in several abusive relationships: one with the federal government, one with my state government, and one with my employer.

Who are the professionals I should seek help from? I'm ready to stop the abuse. #MeToo

There professionals that can address this. But when uou go looking for them, you often find undercover LEO instead. 🤣😭

Obviously, governments are using this as their playbook. Literally they are doing every single one of these things!

RIGHT?!?!

it's not abuse, it's just how i show you i love you

Well yes. I grew up in an extremely abusive and dysfunctional family and boy has the Canadian government's actions all throughout covid called that to mind. They're less sadistic than my parents but the tactics are the same.

:{ you should never have had to experience and abuse or dysfunction. when it is within a family it is a sincere and utter tragedy. i hope you have been able to purge much of that and go on to lead a good and happy life.

Knowing God has healed me. I still have scars but I'm also stronger than most people. Thank you for your kind words.

Expand full comment

Yes, the only way to endure and heal such heartache is through God. Last I looked, He is the only one capable of miracles. Yes, you have scars and always will but you hold your head high and know no one can hurt you again like that now or ever. May blessings find your doorstep each and every day and your glass always be overflowing.

You are so right. Bless you dearheart.

the very ppl Jesus came to restore...the fatherless, abused, ignored, neglected, victimized wounded traumatized. He will succeed

Expand full comment

He always does, it is just the waiting that is the hardest part.

Expand full comment

Less sadistic, so far…

Expand full comment

Because knowingly killing millions of people (and lying that they’re actually “helping” them) is not sadistic

Expand full comment

What's so frustrating is to have survived the parental & sibling abuse, survived the SO abuse, built something of a solo life, only to have it torn apart the minute you start to live & breathe easier for the 1st time

never give up, your fight will be rewarded, God is your defender and strength. your struggle shows just how immensely valuable you are in this place and at this time

You are not alone.

Brandon the abuser

Expand full comment

he is cognitively impaired to boot. can you imagine what he will be like in 1 year from now when he tries to converse?

Expand full comment

Did you see that speech he gave in Scranton a couple days ago? He claimed:

-he was Vice President for 36 years

-that his wife and daughter were killed and he had to rush home.

😲😲😲😲😲😲😲

Oh but at least he's not orange and doesn't send mean Tweets. Oh no don't you worry, he'll call you a lyin' dog-faced pony soldier to your face!

Expand full comment

I did. On one side, he is a grandpa like any grandpa who is starting toward dementia. That is a heartache and I do not wish that on anyone, not even those I dislike intensely. He (or his family should intervene on his behalf) should step up and step away for the sake of America and her people. Not doing so is pure unmitigated arrogance. Any one of us may suffer from dementia one day but that does not mean we would be so arrogant to continue driving and risk hurting ourselves or another. There is no shame with dementia, it is a medical condition like any other. I just wish he would do what is right bc he is making a laughingstock out of himself and the US. Other countries must be appalled by what they see or are planning an attack since our Achilles heel is more than exposed.

Expand full comment

I've never liked him. That said I do not trust his family and hold them in absolute contempt. There's no way in the world they're looking out for his best interests. In any other non-presidential situation, this would be persecuted as elder abuse.

Expand full comment

that is very true DS. I had not looked at it that way but you present a very good observation. Wow....it is all for show and fame and power. I do not trust his family either but then I also remind myself he has buried a good son and is stuck with Hunter who is a complete waste of humanity. Can you imagine deep down what he thinks knowing he has a son like that. If that were my kid, I would stick a scalpel blade in my eye and call it a day...

Expand full comment

Yeah. The DNC was able to stop candidates like Tulsi Gabbard in their tracks but couldn't remove an elderly candidate who, and in being perfectly serious, shouldn't even be allowed to drive much less be POTUS?! This is just gross from beginning to end and we're all reaping the consequences.

Expand full comment

I don't think he knows or cares what Hunter does. If he ever had Hunter might not be the mess he is.

Expand full comment

I am pretty sure Hunter is a result of a very dysfunctional perhaps abusive childhood. His sister is a recovering addict. The publishing of her journal has been kept, like Hunter’s laptop, out of the headlines. “… believes she was sexually molested as a child and shared “probably not appropriate” showers with her father…” https://nationalfile.com/full-release-ashley-biden-diary-reveals-child-sex-trauma-drug-abuse-resentment-for-joe-whistleblower/

Biden wanted this, no sympathy, I hope he stays and continues to publically decline, badly. He is in clear decline a year before stealing the election. No sympathy.

The fact that we were taken totally off guard by China’s hypersonic test does not bode well! We are quite vulnerable it appears.

He's not starting towards dementia it's actually late stage which is what makes this so horrific.

That comment is a lot closer to the mark than you realize. In dysfunctional family dynamics you often have a child singled out to be the black sheep, who is criticized, lauded and controlled, all at once. That family isn't the only one at the top that displays dysfunctional dynamics.

It is truly uncanny how every one of these so perfectly aligns with Covid public health policy. I can’t get over how each and every one has been employed.

I know! I know! It fits like a glove.

I’m thinking of printing this out and distributing it.

And the Government is just getting started....FIGHT BACK!

Expand full comment

Brandon told me that he'd bring us together, that there'd be no more fighting, that we'd have a bright future.

Then he told me it was my fault that we were poor, unsafe, and unhealthy because I didn't do what I was told, and he told the neighbors to shun me.

Then he sniffed my hair.

If you are in the US and local elections are coming up: Email the candidates, ask them about COVID policies, and vote accordingly. These elections are often decided by small margins where we can have an impact.

Expand full comment

Great idea. Something proactive, not just impotent whining.

Expand full comment

I had a good laugh about this! Although it is not really a joke, this is what is happening. Luckily, I only have a dog and 4 cats. They never do any of this. Animals are such wonderful companions.

My favorite thing at the very bottom of this graphic: WE WISH YOU WELL IN YOUR JOURNEY. Um-hmm

Anyone who yammers about "your journey" is not to be trusted.

Right?!?! I'm so SICK of that ... unless it's about the old 80s band Journey. lol

"Moreover, I am cognizant of the interrelatedness of all communities and states. I cannot sit idly by in Atlanta and not be concerned about what happens in Birmingham. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. Never again can we afford to live with the narrow, provincial “outside agitator” idea. Anyone who lives inside the United States can never be considered an outsider anywhere within its bounds." MLK

I feels powerful to even READ these words. My body sighs with relief, even if just for a moment of reprieve. #ThankYou

Amen.

Now the question is, who's that professional that we can seek out?

Expand full comment

See Second Amendment. The lawsuits will take too long.

Expand full comment

that plays straight into their game, the governments always have bigger guns and they love using them, they are planning martial laws everywhere and all they need is an excuse

Expand full comment

So if martial law is planned our words are useless. Fight fire with smarter fire.

It’s not the government that’s abusive, it’s YOU! You win Substack today, Gatito! 🙌

Expand full comment

You're not alone, gatito bueno. The government confused this for their public health plans as well. I guess it's a common mistake to make?

It is more like a wife beater joined a cult with megalomaniac homicidal narcissistic leader and forcing his wife to join up too.

I saw this a year ago and I have been TRYING to find it since then, thank you!!!!

I first saw this at www.jimstone.is months ago but clearly it was going around even earlier

Expand full comment

I think I'll copy this and replace the center text to add "with your government" Then I'll post copies around in public places, including the local courthouse where they have these kinds of posters. Maybe other people will do the same and make it truly viral.

Expand full comment

I wish I could make a professional looking poster- I don't have the equipment to make it look right. Dammit. Someone ought to do it though- it might make a few people think.

Expand full comment

"Government" is already mentioned in the bottom paragraph. Maybe just highlight it somehow?

Expand full comment

Highlighting that would make an excellent point to the irony, wouldn't it? The abuser sure knows how abuse works well enough to make those posters. I've given up trying to make a poster because I have no ability to do the graphic design.

Expand full comment

Wow! Yeah that's the US right now. What I would call a toxic environment. And I've learned that you don't win in toxic situations.

Expand full comment

Hee! Hee Gatito! 😉😂

Hahaha, great comparison!

Expand full comment

Sounds like the government’s instruction manual… they did a thorough job!

Expand full comment

What they say, we keep doing the opposite. If we go to jail fine....if we get fined...fine if we get abused by fanatics...fine....do it anyway. do it anyway with silence, calm and dignity.

The "Punish you for breaking the rules, but the rules keep changing!" sign speaks to how we are all being treated like prisoners. That's why it's called a lockdown.

A while back, I was perusing the NYT Covid statistics and what really stood out, especially in California, is the sheer number of outbreaks and cases related to prisons and old folks homes. It occurred to me that this may be a pandemic driven by institutional irresponsibility, where the state, ultimately responsible for these victims, either directly (prisons) or through regulation (old folks homes), are allowing the the virus to run rampant in those in their care and then using the statistics to impose restrictions on the rest of us. It is just a hunch that these specific statistics would be interesting to study in depth - prisons and old folks homes - as compared to the rest of the population.

If you're familiar with dysfunctional family theories, you look around and see how the borderlines' are driving the bus with their enablers gleefully cheering them on.

So, it makes sense that they resort to their abusive techniques to control the rest of us.
