"I am here to say thank you. Thank you, school board and Superintendent Bridges for not using your power to push back on the state of Illinois about the mask mandate. We get to wear masks all day, every day now. Isn't that great!

Thank you for forcing me to wear a mask so I no longer have to brush my teeth or wash my face. Seriously, my life is so much easier. I don't wear glasses, but if I did I would thank you for concealing my eyes with the fog from my breath, too. Thank you for teaching students that our own mental health is much less important than making triple-vaccinated adults feel safe.

Thank you for teaching me that even the most minute risk is not worth taking. Life is best when you take the path of least resistance with no chance of failure—and definitely no chance of catching a cold.

Thank you for not reaching out to the students to ask how we feel about masks. Because, if you did, the majority of students would say that they hate masks. And then you might second guess your decision to make us wear them.

Thank you for allowing me to experience the anxiety associated with never seeing facial expressions.

Thank you for teaching us that we should never question authority or think critically, but instead, we should follow whatever the people in charge tell us to do. Obedience is best. I realize now that thinking for yourself is overrated, and not really necessary when you can just make decisions based on fear.

Thank you for pushing your irrational fears and anxieties on me. Because I didn't already have enough to worry about. I realize now how easy I had it when I only had to worry about my classes, my grades, the SAT and getting into college.

Thank you for teaching me that being a morally superior person only requires that I cover my face for eight hours a day. And that the most morally superior people wear two masks. Or even three masks! As you know, states around us—Indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan and Minnesota (which have 2.5 times more students than Illinois)—don't force kids to wear masks. I am with you, though! These states are out of control. Recklessly putting kids at risk of misery and death every day. Masks work! Even if the states have the same outcomes as Illinois. Speaking of data, thank you for staying silent about masking despite the fact that COVID has a very high survival rate in kids my age. Who needs data anyway, though? We all know that it will never be safe to see anyone's face ever again.

Thank you for not challenging this irrational fear and ineffective COVID policy of masking. After all, of the $42 billion spent in research by the NIH, not one dollar went toward studying the mental health aspect of kids. I ask you: Don't give in. Stay strong. Stay courageous. Stay quiet. And let's keep masks on kids forever. Thank you."

Or that she seemed to be the only speaker who did not exceed allowed time, among all of the background audience who kept playing with their watches.

I did not feel the need to post her name.

I'm sure there are already some fucking terrible people out there scheming to cause her and her family trouble now. ]

When I originally quoted your reply and made mine, I'd left it in but then I edited it to take the name out and hoped you'd see that and do it too.

Not that it's going to stop the lunatics since she put herself out there. With all the crazy Leftists having people swatted and worse, I can only hope she is alright. I hope she realized the unwanted attention that she put on herself by doing this. Back in my day a speech like this wouldn't have been seen by anybody except for the so-called adults in the room.


This is why I consider her a hero. This was truly stunning and brave.

Not the "stunning and brave" bullshit the Legacy Media keeps talking about when it's just somebody parroting the same tired Leftist propaganda that we already hear every day.

Well, part of the reason I considered it alright to give her credit:

The next speaker was her mom, so it's not like she is anonymous.
She or her mom are not the ones who posted the video, so it's not like they gave any control over accessibility of the content.
