@Mikuchi I was thinking about this earlier today. Kids use to be treated as mini-adults. By the time they were 12 or so, families were putting them to work, either on the farm or in factories. Except for the upperclass/wealthy, kids normally were seen just wearing smaller adult clothing. There was a 99% Invisible podcast episode on the advent of children's clothing for everyone, along with the idea that childhoods were special and should be protected. Child psychologists like Dr. Spock and others paved the way for this new era of protected child development. We saw child labour laws emerge around the world in different countries; as well as structured childhood education.

Now, in some places, children as young as 12 can consent to this experimental vaccine, and even get puberty blockers, without the need to inform the parent. Some want to reduce the voting age to 17 (a tactic often used in South American autocratic nations; younger people are easier to manipulate).

We're seeing an emergency of lowering the age of adulthood and decision making. This is by adults who are often acting like children, with childhood style logic.

I've stopped supporting 8-bit guy on Patreon. His most recent Patreons rant was kinda condescending and I realized I really got nothing out of Patreon only stuff. I think I've supported him enough.

I was really miffed when James Corbett was removed. I still support Media Monarchy, but I feel like I should just switch to sending him money via PayPal. David Firth still gets $1/creation, but he rarely posts anything at that tier.

I make about $3/blog post via Patreon and I'll probably keep that going, but I hate how they're tied into a lot of big-tech censorship and don't want to support anyone via their platform any more. I subscribe to Viva Frei via Locals. I should probably remove the Patreon link from my website too.

Super cool mystery vax y’all got there “large majority”

“We all need to go and get vaccinated,” he said. “The majority of people going into hospital with Covid are unvaccinated.”

What if the "dirty Dan" reference from Spongebob was supposed to be a jab at Dan Schneider who's a pedophile that directed live action shows for the network.

Instead of calling the two shots for the unnecessary COVID-19 vaccine a "jab," we should repurpose another term...

Double penetration.

How many "Principled Conservatives" have donated money to support Based Kyle Rittenhouse, compared to all those giving money to AOC's family?
