The use of "race" to try to keep people divided is wearing thin and not working well. The new divide is vaxed and unvaxed. The unvaxed being demonized as being responsible for the surge in covid when the reality is that the surge is due to the waning efficacy of the vaccine. Those who were vaxed can transmit covid just as much as the unvaxed. So much for following the science. It is more of following the propaganda.
That propaganda includes that most of the unvaxed are ignorant anti-science Trump supporters. The reality is quite different. Many of the unvaxed are inner city African Americans who have reason to not trust the government having been the victim of lies by politicos.
There is great hypocrisy in being against voter ID but while requiring an ID to get a vaccine and in certain areas requiring a vaccine card and ID to enter a museum or go to a restaurant. That hypocrisy goes unmentioned by mainstream media and unnoticed by those who have been party trained by effective propaganda.
In this moral and ethical vacumn talking heads demonize and propose penalties for the mass of unvaxed ignorants while cheered on by those who have surrendered critical thinking to propaganda sound bites and team membership.
There is a virus much worse than covid that has infected the body politic. The situation is not without historical precedence. Good people can fall victim to propaganda that demonizes whole groups of other people. History is littered with the atrocities that such "thinking" can lead to.
What next? And it might not be just about saying yes to a vaccine. Obey or not be able to leave one's home? Obey or not be able to register a motor vehicle? Obey or not be able to have a bank account? Obey or be bodily forced? Obey or be branded a dissident and be forcibly relocated? Will there be modern gulags? Will the trains be loaded again?
Crazy talk? We may be but a few steps away from such things because the seed of what has lead to those things in the past has taken root. As in the past it is being cultivated by corrupt politicians and their propaganda organs.
To paraphrase Thomas Paine, these are times that try our souls. Now is the time to hold steadfast to our humanity and for those who have let it slip to reclaim it. Now is the time to ask of ourself, "Where do I stand?" Is it on the path that helps lead to yet another page in history where a mass of people lose their humanity by demonizing a whole group of people?
As in the past there is always a choice. Sometimes that choice is made without realizing that it is being made. As for me it is a conscious decision. I choose humanity. I choose the preservation of my soul.
This is my first encounter with your writing style. This “Offering Our Children” stream of consciousness moved me deeply. I cannot fully articulate how profoundly your words sifted through material I had assumed to be only my most private thoughts. Uncanny. I want to laugh and cry simultaneously. I am weeping and yet rejoicing. Both my conscious and subconscious thoughts have been heard and acknowledged. I am known. Thank you for sharing your gift. I can hardly wait to read more of your words, but I need to let this sit a moment, to resonate and ruminate, before I move on. I am breaking free.
Thank you so much! Your response moved me deeply. This is why I write. I want to touch people and hopefully do a bit of good in this dark world. A number of people have likened my writing to a stream of consciousness and I find that interesting. I have a lot of ideas constantly in my head and I sort them out somehow, (I train in boxing and kickboxing and run, which helps a lot) not really sure how, to bring it all together. Each time I write, it's an arduous process of putting all those ideas in order. THank you so much for reading.
Again a beautiful paper. I guess you are aware that the Overlords also plan a brutal reduction of the world population that would have to be achieved around 2030. Along with the IOB, that's also probably one of the most telling aspect of their plan: wrecking up the economy before the big plunder and the instauration of the New Serfdom. They are currently destroying the world that has made them what they are. As I said once, my only hope is the knowledge that this is a desperate and hasty move by the global ruling class to save their domination and lifestyle. But they cannot maintain this model without maintaining the illusions by which it was formerly sustained. You need people to believe in The Matrix to keep them all slaves (I have to admit The Matrix had something there). And that's simply not feasible. Even with all the most powerful drugs in the world. This is suicide. Slaves lose the will to live. And that is where we are heading. I pray some children survive unscathed by this nightmare. And some will.
The law of diminishing returns: you can only make a phone so good. Eventually, it'll become something else entirely, and this doesn't exactly bode well considering the circumstances. A massive percentage of people cannot go more than a few minutes without their phones; take it away and they'll collapse into fits and apoplectic tantrums. Try it.

Well said. You should start your own Substack! I will subscribe! Or do you have one that I don't know about?
I do write some now and then but no substack. Some short stories and one novel 16 years ago.
I agree, thank you, very well presented

You echo my thoughts. My first encounter reading Karen’s writing. Wonderfully written.
Edmond Burke, said "Evil can only triumph, when good men do nothing " , Christians call this sins of omission.

Absolutely, agree, and pray for our children. My next essay, just published talks more about this.
Exquisite. You articulate my thoughts so beautifully. I share your fear; I share your grief.
Thank you

Professor, well put, I couldn't said it better myself.
