‘All your child are belong to us'
2022-07-10
[American Thinker] No Democrat has actually said "all your child are belong to us," but every time I read a story about the Democrat push to sever the parent-child relationship, I’m reminded of that long ago Japanese video game with the horrible translation: "All your base are belong to us." Beginning with Lenin, all totalitarian takeovers have involved co-opting children and breaking them away from their families. We’re seeing this with a vengeance in the medical field, where children as young as 12 can make unilateral medical decisions—including destroying their bodies with dangerous hormones and mutilating surgery.

Vladimir Lenin, who formed the Soviet government in 1917, was quite explicit about the importance of children to the cause. "Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted." The core of Hitler’s growing cultural takeover during the 1930s was the Hitler Youth organization, which skillfully taught children to ally themselves with the state and against their parents. During the Iran-Iraq war, the mullahs outfitted children with cheap trinkets that they were promised were keys to heaven and then sent them out to do battle against hardened Iraqi troops. As Mussolini said, "Everything in the State, nothing outside the State, nothing against the State," and totalitarians have applied that rule to children too.

What does this have to do with children and healthcare? A little explanation may help.

What one needs to understand in America in 2022 is that the Democrat party is no longer your father’s party. Those of us older than 50 or so, vividly remember when our parents and their friends would get together and talk politics. Regardless of party, they had the same social, economic, and political values. They just believed in different ways to achieve their political goals.

#10  It's late but I"ll put in two cents worth.
I once read that people in the west during the Victorian were generally smarter and healthier than 20th century Americans.
My feeling is the drug era beginning in the 1950's and the survival of the weakest by modern medicine has contributed to the human race becoming dumber and mentally less healthy than in the past. Drugs damaging the DNA and weak individuals reproducing is beginning to take it's toll on Americans. Top that off with politicians putting party before country and we have a mess.

#9  Antidepressants are just incidental. An effect of a symptom of a deeper malaise. It begins with faulty academics, invasive government and rampant malignancies of liberal philosophy destroying the institution of family. Divorces, affairs, restraining orders, abuse, just no sanctity of the patent-child relationship anymore. And it's gaining takers everywhere now, not just in America.

The availability of firearms too is incidental, a factor that's just there. What's at fault is the feeb alphabeteers and judiciary who force society to accommodate damaged people with negative value to society. Philosophy that accords them sympathy for being victims of the civilizational malaise is fine too, as long as it stays confined to taxpayer funded rose gardens at funny farms.

But government will have none of that. It can't. You see, loonies have proliferated so much that now they are constituencies full of 'em! And they're represented by powerful loonies.

Antidepressants were just a necessity, like guns. It was a downward spiralling so ial order that made them necessary. Of course, demand ➡️ supply. And the corporations profit off peddling both to all and sundry. The role of a righteous State is to provide conditions where neither are in great demand. But then the State's full of grifters and motherfcukers on-the-take.

I remember it started with the psychiatrists, as they conveniently codified their half-baked theories based on who was fit for integration into the industrial machine and who were individualistic outliers. The film Matrix is somewhat about that. Then came the problems at school, the delinquency given a pass by assholes and idiots in legislatures and school districts. The whole 'fuck you, mom, I hate you!' thingy. Hollywood was certainly no help, it only beat the hammer harder, driving more and more nails into the lid. The straying from religion was a major factor in all of this, I know some of you will disagree, that's okay.

Children should not need mental healthcare at all, in an even remotely prosperous society. Unless they have genuine problems of course. Truth is, the Democrats envision a society that can be regulated easily, with just 'triggers' and stern voices. And fir that they'll go to the length of intruding into families, breaking them apart, intruding into churches, into sound doctrine, into your minds if need be... to produce unhealthy individuals.

#7  /\ Not pushing anything Rob. Might well be a chicken or the egg argument. Throw in the evil of 'Big Pharma' money and I think there is something to take note of. I'll continue to study it. Perhaps my views are too narrow. Jump in anytime, I am more than open to criticism, constructive or otherwise.

#6  Bes, why do you push that Scientology trash?

Anti-depressants aren't "psychotropic", and mass shooters invariably have long histories of mental issues so finding they're being treated for those issues is only shocking to complete morons.

OPEN QUESTION.
What do you own free and clear that you don't have to pay "Rental Fee's" (TAXES) on, or else the Government will take it away?

#3  Eventually, the overreach of that 4% is going to cause them to be returned to the closet.

They should have quit while they were ahead.

It is obvious, parents must have clearly defined legal rights and authority. As Government now seems to be ruled by the less than 4% that comprise the over-indulged politically represented Immoral Oddities of the Liberal Socialist Democrat party.

Many of which, are clearly seen by the American Psychological Association (APA) as having serious mental illness issues. Remember, we are told to follow "The SCIENCE", except when it shows how stupid or weird the Left is.

But, no matter how you look at it. This very, very, small group is actively pushing their Immoral Mental Illness based lifestyles on us and our kids that make up the 95+% of what we call semi-normal society.

#1  In Washington State, as one angry parent discovered, the school can put a child on antidepressants without informing the parent (never mind the increasing evidence that psychotropic drugs are almost invariably a factor when White kids engage in mass shootings).

Go ahead, follow the money.
