And I makes me sad and angry”

Being exceptional isn't enough. You also have to be in a place that rewards excellence.

My now 22 year old son spent most of high school in his bedroom due to draconian Pritzker/Fauci lockdowns. He grew very depressed during those years and virtually all normal teenage life was shut down in Chicago. He applied early decision to college without visiting colleges due to lockdowns. He was accepted to his first choice school early decision in the fall of his senior year when life was slowly returning to normal, minus forced masking. His spirits perked up. He got covid during omicron and it was uneventful. In order to escape the every other week close contact quarantines, he got vaxxed prior to omicron. In the summer before college his school announced that all students had to be boosted, no exemptions of any kind. We fought the vaxx mandate to no avail. He was desperate to go to school and have a normal life. He had applied early decision and had no other options at that point. The school said he needed to get the shot to “avoid long covid” and treated us badly during our exchanges about exemptions. He finally got the shot. His choice not mine. He felt very tired for weeks. He was chronically ill and bed bound within 6 months of the shot and is still very ill today. We now have names for his illness - MCAS, POTS , chronic fatigue syndrome,and he has damage to his right iliac vein. He has not been able to finish college within 4 years, his college years were riddled with illness, we have been bounced around the medical community and charged thousands of dollars but given few answers. Fauci pressured schools to close, to perform close contact quarantines, to force masking, and to mandate boosters. I am livid reading his diary as I prepare my still ill son for surgery to stent his iliac vein and then hopefully complete college within 5 years. All so that he could avoid “long covid”….

Having a second kid will show you it’s 95% nature and 5% nurture. It was a major realization within ~3 months of my second kid being born.

Let's be real. Everyone sees it. A generation of educated, middle-class, chronically online young people have constructed an entire identity—and worldview—around the belief that their social awkwardness means their brain must be wired wrong.

They call it “neurodivergence.”

I always come back to this quote from Carl Jung:

🚨Study involving 1.7 million children has found that Myocarditis & Pericarditis only appeared in children who had received COVID mRNA vaccines.

Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from these heart-related problems.

When you have kids and you want to die, you suck it up and you get your act together and you don’t die.

This woman had not lost her cognitive function and wasn’t going to have serious issues for 5 to 7 years, according to doctors. Never mind improvements in treatment that are in the works.

She left her daughters years before her time, and the state enabled it.

They killed her because she’s depressed, and the amount of people justifying this is mind-boggling.

Welcome to the new social contagion — suicide via doctor when you want to call it quits.

Father Larry Holland, a Catholic priest in Canada, was offered euthanasia twice after being hospitalized with a broken hip.

He was not terminally ill. Despite knowing that he was a priest and opposed to euthanasia, hospital staff suggested ending his life.

Today it’s “voluntary“ euthanasia. Tomorrow, forced. We must stop both.

I don't give a damn if taking a side creates a mountain of enemies, if even my former fans turn against me, if my 300,000 followers shrink to three.

Deep in my soul I respect Elon Musk to the absolute maximum.
If he hadn't risked everything, succeeded, and bought X, free speech in Japan would already be dead.
We would all be living exactly as the leftist and Chinese-controlled television tells us to — and we would already be becoming Islamic.
By the time my daughter entered elementary school there might have been a law forcing us to hand her over to Muslims.

Human beings are not born to be liked by others.

We do not live so that our daughters can smile and say "you're a good person" while we enjoy a peaceful, smiling life.

Even if I lose everything, I will still protect my daughters somehow.
That is the definition of being human.

The only platform that still gives us any chance of protecting that is X.
From the very moment Twitter was renamed, I have deliberately and loudly called it X.

I have done nothing wrong.
I will never apologize to anyone.

America should be a country for Americans.
Japan should be a country for Japanese.
Britain should be a country for the British.

That is all.
