Dear Reader,
The wearing of a face mask to protect against a respiratory virus is an act of grand deceit. It is a behavior that defies research on the topic. Wearing a face mask, as this article (one of many) points to — is unsafe to do and is ineffective.
Until the narrative around mandatory masking has changed, each day by 6am Eastern, I will both post here and send out a science-based reason why no one should wear a face mask.
I ask that you help me circulate these pieces to those around you who you believe could most benefit from them. It is important not to remain silent on this topic. These are important discussions to be having with friends, family members, business owners, healthcare practitioners, public servants, and others in the community.

You undermine the sense of trust your child has for you, you devalue your own parental authority, and connection to the child. This may not seem like much when the child is 5 or 7 or 9-years-old, but when that child is 15 and does not have a solid parental bond to cling to when life is hardest, he will have many other influences to turn to: teachers, pastors, coaches, counselors, or the most common and worst place teens turn — peers.
The peers with the most certainty in their voice are often the least trustworthy, yet the peers with the most certainty in their voice is exactly the peers a teen tends to turn to.
You set the stage of their teenage years during their childhood. Is the relationship going to be solid when they are a teen or challenged? The foundation for that is laid long before they are a teen.
And this is not for you, quite honestly. The teenage years may be troublesome for you, no matter what. This is for them. They can make some really awful mistakes when they do not have a parent to turn to. If the relationship is not in place to overcome all the strife that the teenage years bring, the bond will not be enough to bring them home for advice.
Seldom do parents realize how their childhood neglect of their children — as they let strangers raise their kids — leads to teenage distance from a parent.
The face mask is another way society drives a wedge between parent and child.
Until April 3, 2020, almost no one wore a mask. After April 3, 2020, almost everyone wore a mask. There will be a day of reckoning. Society will come to its senses. The mask will likely come to be seen as a massive over-reaction brought about by a trendy culture with endemic low self-esteem.
I do not know when that will happen. If it happens when your child is a teen, your child may see you as a total cretin and power freak who manipulated him for pointless reasons. That would be deserved, and it might be a good defensive mechanism that your child stops trusting you, making it hard for you to do that level of harm to him again.
However, if that does not describe you, this is a good time to make that clear. For your child’s benefit, he cannot go into his teenage years with such concrete justification of what a fraud you are if you are not actually a fraud.
Wait too long, and no amount of words will be able to reverse that trust in you that the imposing of the face mask denied him.
The bestselling book "Face Masks In One Lesson" by Allan Stevo describes how to never wear a face mask again. The follow-up to the book, "Face Masks Hurt Kids," describes why to never wear a face mask again. We must defeat the awful, narrative around the mandates.
Examples of how face masks hurt kids will be posted to the Lockdown Land Substack each morning by 6am Eastern until the narrative around this ineffective and harmful medical intervention has shifted. Face masks are, in fact, not just harmful to children. Face masks are harmful to everyone. Thank you so much for helping me circulate this research.
This is the main reason we never taught our kids to believe in Santa Claus. A lie in fun is still a lie. When the child finds out you lied about that, it would not be unexpected for him to conclude you lied about God and Jesus.
In addition, when you send your child to public school, you are not only letting strangers raise him, but strangers whose ethics are diametrically opposed to your own. Rebellion comes naturally. You ratified the influence of these strangers by turning your child over to them. You granted authority to them to which they are never entitled. That is why we pulled our oldest out of public school after only two months and never looked back, and never sent anyone else to public school, and why we eventually homeschooled.
