I'm a Christian and there's no struggle here. From Vanguard, State Street, WEF, Gates Foundation, all the way down to my local school board, there must be swift and uncompromising justice, accountability, and the unmistakeable messages that this won't happen again. Not on our watch.
One of the most amazing things out of this madness is how the Black Mirror was held up to every single institution, and at every turn, these institutions were revealed for the infested, corrupt, wicked hives they've been allowed to become. There's a lot of good and positives to that.
I went to work on the homes in New Orleans a year after Katrina happened, 2006. It was summer in Louisiana, meaning ridiculously hot and humid. These houses had been sitting rotting, dark, closed for a year. Our team would go in and "gut" them down to the studs. I would take a hammer or crowbar to the rotting drywall, and these giant cockroaches, like the size of Post It notes that had been happily multiplying for a year, were suddenly exposed. It was disgusting yet also fascinating.
What we've peeled back over these past two years is much the same, and just like I got great satisfaction with smashing those roaches with that hammer, I'm about to take great satisfaction knowing the world - the regular, thinking, just world - is about to do the same with this breed of roaches.
Woah there, cowboy. This ain't over by a long shot. There's gonna be more and worse to come as the criminals see their project crumble. A cornered rat is dangerous.
No, I hear you @porsh, for sure. Not claiming victory in any way. This might be the most dangerous time. However, We need to unequivocally push back and not mince our words about what our intentions are. And I'm not one for victory laps anyway.
The cornered rat is extremely dangerous, and as we - the globe - seek to put the hammer down on these roaches, they will fight back and will take a lot of us out. There's no illusion there. But this is the war of our lifetime, and clear purpose of our intent needs to be spoken over and over, from the rooftops.
The more we talk about it, the clearer it becomes, the more it becomes real. But what's that look like between now and then? No clue. Carnage. Loss. Betrayal. Heartache. Let's be clear about that too. But push we must, suffer we must, because the alternative is too crushing to even think about.
Obama also had a solar panel factory because green jobs. I used to deliver water to it. It closed because the - winds of change, get it - blew in a different direction. It's possible these things get shuttered.
That said, we're facing a medical/environmental/tech industrial complex that isn't going anywhere but up and out. It's going to be almost impossible to disassemble the Borg. People are waking up, and there's definitely more of us than there are of them, but we need to be prepared to make sacrifices on whatever level of this game we're playing in.
I'm speaking first to myself, mind you and point that finger right back at me. Is it insurmountable? Too deeply entrenched? Most likely, yeah. But what other choice do we have? I'm not giving into hopelessness, because that's the first line of defense. It's their first move - crush hope.
Amen to all that!! I'm so angry at how they have tried to destroy our kids (all ages including young adults) by closing all doors on them: denying education, sports, social venues, etc. At the moment, I'm losing hope for my 17 y.o. Junior Olympian with high aspirations in his sport (track). I have stopped feeding his dreams because that could mean having to get jabbed in order to participate. The best college teams are seeking only vaxxed athletes despite the fact that males in that age group are at the highest risk for myocarditis and other heart problems. I'm fighting and being politically active in this very blue state, but husband and I must think of an exit strategy for our son. It's hard to remain hopeful.
I know, and I pray that come November, we'll see a Red wave take over the Dems supermajority here in Oregon. I just want the mandates revoked asap. Once we can breath easier, and our kids, teenagers and young adults are safe from the toxic jabs, we can reform the entire govt structure. Colleges are truly captured given their dependence on federal grants for research and all manner of pet projects. Thanks for your encouraging words!
Sorry and don't mean to be rude--just blunt: a life built on transitory sports glory dreams is going to be full of disappointment and regrets ever after, even for some of the lucky few who get to the medaling level.
Sports for the physical and mental joy of using one's instrument at its best-achievable level as self-perceived is one thing. Setting everything on being accepted to a team leads to sublimation of the individual to conforming to authority, no matter how foolish or vile. See: Olympic women's gymnastics. You need to help your son see beyond the college years and imagine a sustainable lifelong future.
I agree. He has other life goals, believe me. However, this kiddo has struggled academically (learning disabilities) and track is were he shines. Why should people with athletic gifts give up their dreams, especially at that age? He knows that athletic talent doesn't last forever but who's to say that he cannot become an amazing coach later in life? That is for him to decide not for bureaucrats to thwart.
There's a big difference between a realistic goal of coaching as a profession and focusing all one's emotions on the dream of Olympic glory and letting that guide one's educational choices and options. Far too many talented athletes recruited by schools for THEIR benefit, and not the student's, end up with no useful life skills to carry them forward. Could your son thrive in, say, a trades program at a community college and is that not part of his (and your) planning solely because of track?
Yes, surely you know your child best--far better than a commenter on a newsletter thread. But sometimes even a stranger can say something worth contemplating, if not necessarily acting on. Wishing your family safety, health and a good and happy future.
I appreciate it. He's been talking about getting into welding for a while. We have not discouraged him at all and my husband even showed him a chart with income potential for that trade. We're happy with whatever he chooses. I just want him healthy and happy. But will continue to fight the unnecessary and dangerous jabs for every single athlete and college student in my state. I just wish other parents would stand up for their kids.
Something like welding is a solid (no pun intended!) option. The death of trades high schools in places like NY over my lifetime have been a real tragedy for the futures of intelligent but non-academically interested kids. When the pipes break you really don't want a, say, sociologist to be on call...
And yes. This generation of parents who seem to see their kids only as lifestyle accessories and not whom you'd be willing to die for is just astounding to me. God help us.
I'm an older mom (57) which may explain my approach and my more conservative values. Who knows? Even though my husband and I are college educated, we know that colleges are woke/indoctrination factories as of late. And demand for the trades will continue to increase as the supply of experts dwindles. Anyone who's had to call a plumber or an electrician knows. ;-)
I'm sorry @MLL. It's robbery and theft at the deepest, most core levels, and I hate that it's happening to you. One of the most dastardly, devastating things is to see potential not realized, and that's what's happening to you and your son. It crushes me to hear your sentence "I have stopped feeding his dreams..." As a parent of two - one who's on his way to begin looking at the long term - that kills me.
One thing to keep in mind, and it's not pretty, is that it may get to the point where there aren't enough vaxxed students to field a competitive team, either through injury, unvaxxed opting out of that life, or other. At some point, these programs are going to have to weigh the cost of "hmmm, do we stick with this failed vax ideology, or do we want to win." God, do I want that to be the fulcrum of thought, the sooner the better. Might be a pipe dream.
Regardless, I'm truly sorry for that place you're in, what you and your son are being robbed of, and look forward to the day when justice is served on these roaches.
at the pro level, sure. The issue is with college coaches that won't recruit purebloods. I already know of a kiddo (just getting over natural infection) who will get the jab so that he may be considered for a college track team. So sad.
Thanks so much for your heartfelt words! Luckily, he's still a junior in high school. My hope being that in another year, the entire covidian cult will have crumbled, and the midterms will yield a political shift in my state. I just want all mandates to be revoked permanently, and legislation like Florida's be signed to that we NEVER have to deal with this again. I do hold hope but I'm keeping it to myself. My m.o. is to bring joy and love to my kids' lives, so they know that we don't buy the msm hysteria. We are at war, and as long as we're all healthy, the rest of our goals can be put on hold for a little while. Right?
Keep hoping. Keep smiling, even through the tears and heartache. Keep your eyes fixed on love, even when it's impossible to feel love. Paint good landscapes for your kids so that they don't grow up feeling like the world is hopeless. Control what you can control, in your little circle, even though it might seem like it's a drop in the bucket. That's YOUR fight right now.
Those kids of yours, they're your mission. Remind them they're fierce, unique, humble, proud, compassionate, and capable of amazing things. Your job is to pile as much kindling around their hearts as possible, kindling that will create an enduring, blazing fire for the rest of us to see, and trust that when the time comes, that kindling WILL be lit up.
That's how I'm approaching my duties as a parent. I'm being real with my kids while doing my best to fortify their character and keep them from falling into despair. It's a fine line to walk, but walk it we must. They are our most valuable resource and mission #1. There are a lot of battles to fight now and in the future, and those battles are part of the larger war, but mission priority, in these years that we have them, are the kiddos.
ABSOLUTELY!! Every day that goes by with them by my side - healthy and vax-free - and with my husband's support is a big WIN. I am grateful to be surrounded (virtually) by people like you. You are 100% correct. Plus, the world will thank us one day for saving our God-given genetic pool. :D
I suspect that by March/April the vax mandates will be a thing of the past. There are two obvious reasons: First, they protect neither individuals nor the public at large and this is now becoming acknowledged by the Left as are the often vicious side effects of the jab. Second, if this entire sorry episode of societal lunacy does not fade away soon the Dems defeat in the Midterms will be worse than anyone now imagines. Exit strategy? Have him keep training, maybe get a job for a year and get the scholarship the following year.
Thanks for the glimmer of hope!! He is in an elite private club. For us parents, this is about his physical AND mental health as he keeps training but also makes friends in the process. He's very competitive. I don't wanna crush his dreams. So, we go along and say nothing about the limited college prospects for now. Fortunately, his a junior in high school. So, we have his senior year to figure this out. Thanks again for the much-needed dose of optimism!
The only reason hope is still a glimmer is because the light is still several months away. When I answered above I thought your son was a senior. I doubt if Covid will have any effect on his running.
God willing. AMEN! I also have a 19 y.o. college student who is taking a gap year. So, my fight is for all our young adults being coerced into this. But you're right, my son has 1 more year.
I'm a Christian and there's no struggle here. From Vanguard, State Street, WEF, Gates Foundation, all the way down to my local school board, there must be swift and uncompromising justice, accountability, and the unmistakeable messages that this won't happen again. Not on our watch.

I could listen to you all day
Biden has funded a covid test factory that's not due to be completed and functional until mid 2024. They have no intention of allowing this to end.
Obama also had a solar panel factory because green jobs. I used to deliver water to it. It closed because the - winds of change, get it - blew in a different direction. It's possible these things get shuttered.
That said, we're facing a medical/environmental/tech industrial complex that isn't going anywhere but up and out. It's going to be almost impossible to disassemble the Borg.

Sorry. The evidence arriving has become too compelling. Truth can really affect people once they are aware.
Amen to all that!! I'm so angry at how they have tried to destroy our kids (all ages including young adults) by closing all doors on them: denying education, sports, social venues, etc. At the moment, I'm losing hope for my 17 y.o.

I'm fighting and being politically active in this very blue state, but husband and I must think of an exit strategy for our son. It's hard to remain hopeful.
I’m sorry your son’s dreams are being thwarted ! But I’d be so much sorrier to hear he acquired myocarditis !!!
This too, shall pass.
I know, and I pray that come November, we'll see a Red wave take over the Dems supermajority here in Oregon. I just want the mandates revoked asap.

Maybe the story of NBA’s Kyrie Irving will offer some hope to the young athletes
at the pro level, sure. The issue is with college coaches that won't recruit purebloods. I already know of a kiddo (just getting over natural infection) who will get the jab so that he may be considered for a college track team. So sad.
My heart is breaking!

@ MLL I don't have children but feel for you. As one of the few non injected nurses it's a battlefield out there.
Thanks, dear!! Stay strong.

God willing. AMEN! I also have a 19 y.o. college student who is taking a gap year. So, my fight is for all our young adults being coerced into this. But you're right, my son has 1 more year.
And he'll be 18 before you know it and may just duck out and get some shots
Glorious metaphor !
there must be swift and uncompromising justice
