There Are No Good People Within A Pedophile Death Cult

Is today the day you sponsor me? Thank you so much if it is :) Upgrade at 30% offI meet many people who are so bound up by binary thinking that they assume median perspectives must be accurate even without any evidence.“There seems to be hostility on both sides,” they say.Excuse me? We live in an era where a pedophile death cult has taken over our government. They've deputized psychologically unhinged men who drive around in vans abducting people. They don't identify themselves as law-enforcement, deprive innocent people of due process, and they wear masks. Then they send these people to a concentration camp in Florida. Meanwhile, there are messages all over social media of people making jokes about feeding children to alligators.You're seriously going to sit there and say that “both” sides are bad? Are you out of your mind?A lot of this is because it's become a matter of cultural identity in the United States to live in a state of denial. The majority of the population is so self-centered, that if something bad isn't happening directly to them, they don't care about it.I have to admit that I'm having a really hard time with all this.I'm a teacher. I've worked with kids. I'm a parent. I'm a coach. I've seen a lot of abusive situations. Friends, we're up to our eyeballs in child abuse. From wherever you're reading this, you can look up from your computer screen, glance around, and see 20 places where kids are being abused.Sometimes I want to stop and start pulling out my hair and scream, “Why doesn't anyone care!”Do you understand how much trauma is involved when masked men rip away a child's parents and separate them for even one day? Do you understand? It's awful.Have you seen these beautiful little children with enormous tears running down their cheeks looking around with terror and uncertainty in the hope of finding comfort?I swear to you, I wish I had a magic wand so I could wave away the pain of the world. There is so much and it is soul crushing. Then, people who like to think of themselves as good people are dismissive of my viewpoint?“Oh, I'm sure it's not as bad as all that!”It is that bad.The way we tolerate the behavior of religious extremists is downright disgusting. There are parents who will kick their own children out of their house because of their sexual orientation. This act of cruelty comes after years and years of hate mongering by patriarchal figures.The years of abuse are just as bad as the culminating moment. I know what it feels like to go through every day consumed with doubt and self-loathing. There is absolutely nothing to be gained by forcing people to go through that. Yet, so much of our society is indifferent to the fact that this is going on.I see cruel acts transpire every day. I see parents say terrible things to their children. When I have the chance, I try to respond with a smile or a kind word. All we can do is scatter crumbs throughout the world and try to make people feel better.Again, I can tell you from experience that those crumbs make all the difference. A child who is in the depths of despair might gather up a crumb of kindness and hold it close to her heart. She'll treasure it and nurture it like a precious memory that sustains her through years and years of cruelty. It will be the splinter of evidence she needs to cultivate a belief that she's good and worthy and deserving of love.One little tiny gesture is all it takes. I remember being sustained for a time by something as small as a smile and a kind look.But I'll try and spread this message and I'm met by a tidal wave of, “Oh, you're exaggerating the issue. You sound delusional. Your screwed up viewpoint is probably a consequence of unresolved childhood trauma.”I've had people dismiss my position on the strength of an argument that's based on my fundamental assumptions. That's how irritating and frustratingly backwards the world is. It's because our whole society is wound up in blatant contradictions, and the majority of the population has been indoctrinated to disregard them.Bringing people close to understanding is like trying to push two similarly charged magnets together. The closer you get, the harder you have to push. If you let up even for a second, the two ends shoot apart.A big part of the problem is that everyone has been trained to believe there is comfort in simplicity. They look at binary models and assume they must be true because binary models create the illusion of order in an uncertain universe.They look at a political spectrum that shows left versus right and they assume that, because the heavens are orderly and perfect, things must exist in equal portions on both sides.The problem is the model. It's all a vast oversimplification. Everyone has to take a step back from the things they assume, even the things that bring them comfort, and recognize how much pain those false beliefs cause them to inflict on their fellow human beings.You can't represent human behavior or human ideology with a straight line. You can't do it with a plane. You need a three dimensional space. When you start to organize human behavior within a three dimensional model, you'll see that there are quadrants that are responsible for unprovoked aggression and acts of terrible abuse.That's what's going on today. The corrupt quadrants are where hatred, racism, and genocide come from.It's not a case of “both sides are complicit.” If you believe that, it's because you're beholden to an oversimplified and inaccurate model. You're basing your assumptions on the flaws of your model rather than interpreting the data you encounter to get a better understanding of our reality.Americans like things simple. When you impose a simple viewpoint on your reality, it makes you feel powerful. “I can understand this. It's basic. It's on/off. It's man/woman. It's right/wrong. It's left/right.”But when you oversimplify everything in service of your frail ego, you start spinning in circles. You overlook the nuance that makes growth, decency, and empathy possible.If you take the time to see people of different races and genders and sexual orientations as HUMAN BEINGS, it becomes impossible to hate them. That's why the right puts us on constant blast with the lie that “immigrants are bad.”The reason is that if we stopped and recognized that immigrants are good, decent, loving, caring, hardworking parents, and hardworking children, then our whole society wouldn't be so casual in its support of genocide.So please, do yourself a favor. Do the suffering children of the world a favor. Stop reverting to your indoctrinated oversimplification when you make assessments of reality. Stop defaulting to indifference when you see children suffering. Recognize that you can't skip through life with the nonsensical assumption that, in any conflict, both sides must be complicit.It's not true. There are innocent people out there. There are good people. There are caring people. There are loving people. It's just that these people do not have a voice. These people are grabbed off the street by cruel men wearing masks and sent to their deaths in far off places.It's happening. Denial isn't going to provide any protection when they come for you.You all make this newsletter happen! Thanks for your sponsorship!
