For this poor schlub living currently with his sister am seeing the effects of this scamdemic firsthand on children, my great niece(6) & nephew(11). Primarily niece though.
We live in Virginia, Youngkin has liberated our beautiful children's faces making it parent's choice. So living with my sister, it's typical both kids are here about every weekend. Both love Minecraft and have suckered me into playing to the point I bought the game myself and the three of us all play together on our own screens in the playroom. Not that I'm a huge fan of Minecraft, but I like the building aspect and we have fun playing together.
So I was asking my great niece the other weekend if she was still wearing a mask in school, and said she was due to "the sickness" which is what she calls covid. Yesterday my niece brought them by for a visit, and my nephew had a mask on under his chin, I joked and asked if he was growing a beard.
When they left, I asked my sister, so what's up with the masks is their mom making them wear them? Turns out, they want to wear them after having been so conditioned to "the sickness".
I know this is getting lengthy, but I'm so disheartened after asking my sister about them masking this morning and finding out my niece is having phycological issues as well, nobody cares about her, wanting to die, etc. Turns out, the reason they popped by was due to her running out in the street during a fit. So these feelings only come out when she's upset, for now...
Both kids LOVE their time here, when it's time to go home after weekends both are sad and hard to get them to get ready to go. Sweetest kids, really pains me this.
Unmasking our kids isn't enough, we need to counterstrike, explain to them in a way they can understand, counter the whole submissive narrative instilling vigilance to fight against oppression and tyranny in all forms, both foreign and domestic.
I'm generally patient, all good things in time, many moving pieces at play, etc etc, but this has really brought the urgency home for me.
God bless, WWG1WGA
Yeah, my sister was looking at things we can do this weekend, plus weather is supposed to be pretty nice. So she was looking at The National Zoo, and of course being in DC, requires masks indoors, and think even vaccinated to enter I heard her say. My reply, yeah, lets find something to do that requires no masking!
I'll have to find some ways I can lightly red pill them, but their mom, God bless my niece, but she's got some issues as well. Including still masking herself, and germs etc way before covid.
I understand. An example popped into my head about a cast. A cast is put on to help a broken bone to heal (keeping the bone stable). After a certain amount of time, the cast comes off, or it would start to cause damage to the body. The same is with the masking situation.
If you cannot find a specific place to go and have fun, take a picnic to a park and toss around a ball, play with a Frisbee, teach the kids how to fly a kite, hunt for tiny bugs, bring paper, pencils, crayons to capture in drawings the surroundings, the animals (squirrels), the list goes on and on. My point is, get out and have fun! Think back to when you were a kid and went outside. Make up a game!
Wishing you, and everyone here a wonderful weekend.
