Blaming the wrong person

I, by virtue of describing my own situation, do not assume the guilt of the people singling people out to do to others what us being done to me and you refuse to acknowledge the extent to which it was already happening BEFORE I SAID ANYTHING and you are doing that so you can scapegoat goat me. I have not instructed anyone to kill themselves and can be quoted saying that "If someone tells you to kill yourself you should not do it and live out of spite." I have also instructed people contact mental health professionals if they have homicidal ideations and have stop at least one school shooting? How many school shootings has Gavin Newsom stopped? Fucking ZERO bitch. NONE.
Hym "Yet what happens when they contact the mental health professionals? They LIE. They allow people to continue to falsify and defraud the mental health of others. That's Dr. K. That's Jordan Peterson. By allowing the continue of targeted harassment that resembles the delusions of reference commonly associated with schizophrenia they have accepted your child's suicide as an acceptable outcome. Suicide. Mass shootings. Instrumental use by bad actors to STEAL MY SUCCESS FROM ME. All of these are things I SAID WOULD HAPPEN. And they ALL came to fruition. The weaponized schizophrenia does what I said it would do. And what did the YouTube fucks do when they confirmed the veracity of my claims? AFTER DOXXING ME FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF DOING THE WEAPONIZED SCHIZOPHRENIA TO ME AS THOUGH IT WASN'T ALREADY HAPPENING!? Cried like a bitch, very publicly and then continued to either do it or do nothing. That goes for the celebrity psychologists as well. How much do you want to bet that if I name drop Dr. Phil he shows up in the news cycle tomorrow? It wouldn't be the first time it happens. But they can't resist. They can't resist doing it and they want me to kill your kids so they can sweep their culpability under the rug and go forward as the authors of history. All to keep REE-lon's (likely) money flowing into their pockets. You're blaming the wrong person here. I don't want your kids to die. I want you to stop letting these people call a bluff FOR YOU that you cannot afford.
