The academics I work with were like a Dracula movie, demanding lists of names of students and colleagues who did not cave to the demands. They wrote a letter asking that the mandate deadline be moved up. I used to teach about the dangers for many years, but it became unsafe because students started complaining and refusing to do the assignments around the CDC coverup (Brian Hooker and William Thompson) during the pandemic. One was in tears. What really shocked me is that academics in disciplines that are based on a history of fighting systems were no different than anyone else. I never felt so alone as I have over these last years. I grew up as a critical thinking radical. I haven’t changed, but I don’t know what happened to my circle. When it was most important, people either suspended critical thought or became quiet.

Amen to the last part about explaining the dangers of the vaccination schedule to your children. I have had long detailed discussions with my older daughter now 16 about exactly that. She asks great questions. I have told her what vaccines she has had, what her bad reaction was to them, under what circumstances I would agree to vaccination (getting bitten by a rabid raccoon), what jabs I have a better opinion of (BCG) which ones I rank the worst (HPV/Gardasil) and this was all BEFORE the Covid jabs came on the scene. It paid huge dividends when her high school was differentially quarantining based on jab status, which revealed private medical information and set up a bullying scenario for the holdouts like her. She managed to convince her best friend not to get the jab and being two hot girls some boys started following the lead. The potential bullying situation evaporated. I am so proud of her. And your framing of the election results is great: I think too many people made this about team red/team blue when it is about stopping the iatrogenocide. Trump has been completely tone deaf on this issue for whatever reason...
