The following is from Natalie Jean Beisner. It accurately reflects the sentiment of many that have lost faith in American Liberalism and the Democrat Party. Many are just tired of the abuse and lies, and it’s time to #walkaway:
I have been a Democrat my entire life. I live in Los Angeles. I was an actress for years. I voted for Obama, then Clinton. I couldn’t wait to vote against the ban on gay marriage. I supported Planned Parenthood. I called JK Rowling “TERF.” I read books like THE NEW JIM CROW in an attempt to “educate” myself. I was a Democrat through and through, and more than that—I was even on board with wokeism, equity (as opposed to equality), with intersectional feminism, etc. These people had me pretty much hook, line, and sinker. Then in Summer 2020, I was encouraged to go out and engage in “firey but mostly peaceful protests” but was told it was still unsafe for me to go to work. That didn’t make sense. Nothing around me made any sense whatsoever. And I really needed to go back to work. Whenever I brought this up, I was told I was being selfish or even “racist.” Indeed, whenever I saw talk—whether online or on corporate news—of those who took issue with lockdowns, it was always framed as an issue of selfishness, even of racism. For some reason, liberal folks had this idea that anyone remotely concerned over lockdowns was a wealthy white woman who was just bored and wanted to get her hair and nails done. I felt like screaming at everyone, “Who do you think does hair and nails?” Hairdressers and nail artists, whose jobs are ESSENTIAL TO THEM. Everyone is an “essential worker” to himself and the people who may depend upon him. What bothered me the most wasn’t that these people disagreed with me, or that they had different ideas on how best to handle covid or BLM unrest—what bothered me the most was that they absolutely refused to recognize I might have any honest reasons for disagreeing with them. And I had honest reasons for disagreeing with them. I and MANY others were being harmed by the tyrannical, overreaching, nonsensical response to covid—especially in blue cities and states. That felt like a punch to the gut, from the people I’d supported and aligned with all my life. So I walked away from the Democrat party. They’ve proven me correct every damn day since then. #walkaway
The real question is how on earth did she ever get brainwashed enough in the first place to get hooked up with them?
If not for the nonsensical Covid rules, there would be many more than a million dead.
Note: You say these words but I don’t think you know what they mean.
Oh, really?
Based on exactly what, given that the CDC predicted a COVID death rate of around 2% of the population, which in the US is 333 million souls?
Wow! I bet you voted for Bath-House Barry, Hillary, China-Joe and Kamal-Toe too. Probably a Dog-Nutter to boot.
You Sir, are part of the problem.
Dan, you seem nice and well-meaning, but you are obviously “new in town,” so to speak, because unlike the legacy media which prints whatever propaganda they are told to print by Washington, D.C., the Cape Charles Mirror dares to question the propaganda, and expose the propaganda, which is why it is a grand palladium of liberty, sadly about the only one there is in the whole of the United States, and so, the Cape Charles Mirror has been all over this COVID bull**** embodied in the nonsensical Covid rules this ex-Democrat Natalie Jean Beisner is talking about, which commentary accurately reflects the sentiment of many that have lost faith in American Liberalism and the Democrat Party, being just tired of the abuse and lies, that sadly, you are still a believe in, which is a real testament to efficacy of your conditioning and indoctrination.
To educate yourself about the reality those of us who are not Democrat ideologues live in, go to the Cape Charles Mirror article “2 percent of all COVID deaths come from three states” on July 12, 2020, where you will find as follows, to wit:
42 percent of all COVID deaths in the US come from just three states—New Jersey, New York, and Massachusetts.
These three states account for nearly 56,000 of the nearly 133,000 deaths in the US, even though they represent just 10 percent of the population.
If these three states are excluded, the US suddenly finds itself somewhere in between nations such as Luxembourg (176/1M) and Macedonia (166/1M), where some of the better fatality numbers in Europe are found.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo earlier this year received a great deal of criticism when the state’s policy of prohibiting nursing homes from screening residents for COVID-19 came to light.
Cuomo eventually reversed that decision under intense criticism from public health experts and trade group leaders.
This week, the New York State Department of Health issued a report that concluded 6,326 COVID-positive residents were admitted to nursing homes between March 25 and May 8 as a result of the order.
