‘My daughter was murdered by a gender ideology’: LA mom slams CPS after it took away her daughter and let her transition into a man – before she killed herself three years later aged just 19

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

‘My daughter was murdered by a gender ideology,’ she said at the hearing. ‘CPS took my daughter when she was 16 years old. It was helped by her public school counselor and LGBTQ group and another trans-identified girl. 

‘My daughter was taken from her loving home because the state of California claims I was abusive for not affirming her trans identity. I lost my daughter over a name and pronouns.’ 

She went on to say that her daughter had ‘mental health issues’ and was ‘not a boy trapped in a girl’s body.’ 

‘Why are there so many transgender in foster care? Because this state take them from their families, tell them to run, then steals them. Parents are given one option to treat their distressed child: Affirm drugs and remove their healthy body part or else lose your child,’ she told the Judiciary Senate. 

‘The abuse claim against me was finally dropped, but it was too late. The damage was done. By then, my daughter was in horrible mental and physical pain. My daughter knelt down in front of a train. She was murdered by gender ideology.’

I cannot think of any way a Buddhist can countenance what was done to Yaeli by adults. Encouraging and then enforcing a delusional ‘identity’ is the opposite of everything Buddhism stands for. To do that to a child is as bad as it gets. Buddhism is largely a gentle teaching but it is very firm on the ethics of not encouraging delusion in anyone and especially in children. To my knowledge, there is no other religion that is more squarely against what happened to Yaeli than Buddhism. Enticing, encouraging a child in their delusions and then taking her from her home and mother—this is the opposite of all Buddhist teaching. There is no way Buddhists can condone this or not speak against it. This is deeply wrong. I hope more Buddhists will join me in speaking very strongly against these laws and this kind of behavior. It is the adults who are to blame for this. ABN

CDC Director knew COVID vax did not prevent infection

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Rochelle Walensky famously claimed many times that the COVID vaccine prevented infection and transmission of the virus.

Even after it became glaringly obvious that this was false, she kept on insisting that the cause of its failure to do so was the development of “variants,” and that the vaccine did work for the original virus. She just repeated this claim to Congress in testimony before a committee investigating the government’s response to the pandemic.

This, it turns out, is a lie, and she knew it. Way back at the beginning of the vaccine rollout, she was quite concerned about the fact that the vaccine did not appear to be working as intended.

Rochelle, so far, has not even attempted an apology. She sold the vaxxes like they were girl scout cookies and getting them was being a member of the team. Filing this post under ‘anti-science’. ABN

Top Canadian politician apologizes to unvaccinated, ‘we were wrong…’ makes unprecedented promise…

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Danielle Smith, the current premier of Alberta in Canada, has done something remarkable. She took the bold and unprecedented step of apologizing to unvaccinated Canadians who’ve faced unfair treatment from the government throughout the “pandemic.” But Ms. Smith actually went beyond just issuing an apology, Danielle actually made a promise: anyone who was terminated from their job due to their refusal of the COVID-19 vaccine will be reinstated.

Admire and reward honest apologies, especially if there is a vow to make amends for the mistake and to not repeat it. In Buddhism, recognizing our own mistakes and apologizing and making amends for them is fundamental to spiritual growth. It is a state of mind that must be established for spiritual progress to be made. Do your best. Speak the truth. ABN

The dubious ethics of Prof. Peter Hotez

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Peter Hotez and I share an unpleasant two-year history. When I was not yet banned on almost all social media platforms, I confronted leading coronists with their own contradictions. After Hotez spoke out in favour of universal vaccination of children, my collar burst, and I dubbed him “Dr Evil.”

His response was as follows:

His comrades-in-arms and fellow believers were also quick to speak out and even accused me of anti-Semitism – a typical cyber-bully behaviour. Peter Hotez and his friends around Yamey eventually called on their followers to report me en masse, which ultimately led to the deletion of my account.

FLASHBACK to 11/30/22: Elonathan Greenmusk plays word game

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

I hope Musk does well by the world’s people by truly allowing free speech on Twitter. If he means the above, he won’t. Freedom of speech without freedom of reach is not free speech, it is censorship. It’s a word game that conceals a vile intent. ABN (first posted )

UPDATE: At best Musk’s free-speech absolutism is true but also impossible (for him) due to the economics of Twitter and all social media, including Big Media/MSM. At worst, it was never true and/or he fears for his life and welfare if he defies his control masters. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle and our nation (and all of the West) is trapped in a circle of money-lies-bribes-blackmail-taxes-corruption-election theft-censorship-propaganda-more lies-money-blackmail-etc. At bottom this circle is ruled by money-blackmail-and lies, especially lies. Notice that covid and covid vaxxes would have gone nowhere without the lies. Ditto Ukraine War, election theft, climate change, and so on. I think we can have some compassion for Musk as the pressure must be enormous. Everyone else has folded. Truth today is like cracks of light you can find only in obscure corners of the Internet or with a select few amazing & wonderful people. ABN

It Was Always Only About Power With the Left

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Why do so many liberal climate-activist grandees fly on private jets? Or why do those who profited from Black Lives Matter have a propensity for estate living? Or why do the community-activist Obamas prefer to live in not one, but three mansions?

The answer is that calls for radical equity, “power for the people,” and mandated equality are usually mostly sloganeering for those who enjoy power and the lucre it brings, and their wish is to augment both for themselves. The result is that the issue du jour of mandated equality often becomes secondary if not irrelevant. There is neither fear of inconstancy nor hypocrisy, given the central theme that governs a leftist party line is political utility—or the ends of power always more than justify the hypocritical means used to obtain it.

Department of Education Investigates Schools for Not Sexualizing Kids

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Coordinated lawsuits are targeting schools and parents across the country

Biden launched his 2024 presidential campaign with an ad attacking Republicans for keeping a book featuring a 10-year-old performing sex acts out of schools.

“’Lawn Boy‘, one of the books shown in the Biden ad, includes lines like, “I was ten years old, but it’s true. I put Doug Goble’s d___ in my mouth.”

According to Biden, whose administration had previously colluded to investigate parents rallying against sexualizing schoolchildren with graphic materials like these as domestic terrorists, anyone opposed to having ‘Lawn Boy’ in schools is a “MAGA extremist”. While that assault on parents was stifled, under Biden, the Department of Education is launching a new attack.

Canada’s euthanasia free-for-all gets wilder: A quarter of people now back lethal injections for the POOR and homeless — critic slams ‘shameful’ attitude in world’s most permissive program

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

Canada is under fire once again as host of the world’s most permissive assisted suicide program, where millions of people now say the homeless and poor should be eligible for state-sanctioned deaths.

A survey released this month found that more than a quarter of Canadians say being impoverished or unhoused is a good enough reason for a doctor to inject somebody with a deadly cocktail of drugs.

Even larger numbers of respondents said assisted suicide — or Medical Aid in Dying (MAID), as it is known — should be available to those with disabilities, mental illnesses or who cannot receive medical treatment.

Adam Schiff ‘abused trust’ of USA and should b expelled from House of Representatives

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

California Democrat Rep. Adam Schiff is facing more allegations after the release of Special Counsel John Durham’s final report.

Florida Republican Rep. Anna Paulina Luna introduced a measure to expel Schiff from the House after Durham’s report revealed the Democrat lawmaker repeatedly lied about “collusion” between Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign and Russia.

For years, Schiff repeatedly lied to the country claiming he had “evidence” of said collusion while also launching needless “investigations” into the allegation.

“Adam Schiff lied to the American people,” Luna said. “He used his position on House Intelligence to push a lie that cost American taxpayers millions of dollars and abused the trust placed in him as Chairman. He is a dishonor to the House of Representatives. The Durham Report makes clear that the Russian Collusion was a lie from day one and Schiff knowingly used his position in an attempt to divide our country.”

Pastor makes a good apology for being wrong about covid vaxxes

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment

He explains why he did it without using that as an excuse. He accepts full responsibility and by making this apology public he makes amends for his mistake. A full Buddhist apology would also include a vow to never be so lax and gullible again, but maybe that’s implied. What astonishes me is it is taking so long for some obviously good and well-meaning people to come to grips with vax malfeasance. ABN

Supreme Court Justice Gorsuch issues excoriating review of COVID lockdown policies including business closures and vaccine mandates and calls them ‘among the greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the history of the nation’

~ ABN ~ Leave a comment
  • Justice Neil Gorsuch labeled the avalanche of lockdown measures imposed during the pandemic as among ‘the greatest intrusions on civil liberties’
  • He said leaders at state and federal level issued emergency decrees ‘on a breathtaking scale’
  • Congress and state legislatures ‘too often fell silent’ as strict rules were laid down, he added

Yes, and SCOTUS ‘fell silent’ on election fraud, which has allowed ‘the greatest intrusions on civil liberties’ to continue while also being arguable the most egregious intrusion of all. ABN
