Before I start my social media break, I just want to say Salome what an honor it has been to be part of this rapidly growing community of those who wish to see beyond false binaries and think outside the box. I’ve read so many amazing articles in the Black Sheep publication with opinions that really made me think and that you’ll never see anywhere in the dying mainstream media. I’ve definitely felt at home in this community from when I first entered it earlier this year. It definitely does feel like quietly, a cultural renaissance is sprouting up. It’s all thanks to the courageous vision Salome and Jake had and brought to life. It began as these things always do, as a dream. But they worked hard at it, got down and dirty and made it happen. Some of your posts such as Salome’s on Zionism or the one where you debunk Zionist myths after the debate at Dissident Dialogues got swift and fierce backlash from very angry people. But you never wavered in your commitment to your views or creating space for others to hold their own views as long as they followed the Black Sheep way. I’ve really met a lot of great people and learned so much from being a part of this phenomenal community of folks from across the political spectrum. I can’t wait to see more voices from all sides come join the Black Sheep community! This wonderful collection of articles should be read by people all over the world and in every state and territory in this country! Jake’s new book should be too! His new book honestly in my opinion, should win the Pulitzer Prize. It’s one of the most important books of this generation. Many of these articles are some of the most important political pieces of our times. That work the Black Sheep is doing is invaluable! I wish everyone tomorrow a most Happy Thanksgiving!🍁🍽 🦃 Contrary to what radical leftists would tell you, it’s not a holiday that celebrates genocide or European colonialism. It’s holiday where we count our blessings and be thankful for all God has given us. Your family, your friends, your pets, etc. That’s what you should think about tomorrow not the woke scolds trying to be buzzkills and ruin your holiday. The Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians came together and broke bread in Plymouth in 1621 to celebrate that they had survived a brutally harsh winter together and marked the occasion by signing a peace treaty that lasted for 50 years. That is well worth celebrating! One of the things I’m most thankful for this Thanksgiving is the friendship I share with Salome and Jake and being part of such an amazing group of people.

Noah this is so kind and means so much to hear. Thank YOU for being an important part of this community and helping us show people that there's a better way than demonizing people we disagree with and forcing others to conform to our views. The Black Sheep is a better example of free-thinking and truth-seeking because of you!

Extra grateful for your support this Thanksgiving 🙏

“Peaking behind the curtain” …… you nailed it!! As a kid in the 60’s, I can clearly remember watching (between my fingers) as Dorthey bravely confronts the wizard, and then the ahhh haaa moment arrives. Will never forget it. And then, in a blink of an eye, it is 60 years later, and I am reading my trusted MSM media, Covid has us in lockdowns, and I am having the same feeling that I need to look behind the curtain. My spider senses were telling me I am being lied to……. a lot. First, I found Independent Media then The Black Sheep. Ahhh Haaa…… it all makes sense now. And looks like Totto is going to make it back to Kansas.

Haha, I'm so glad you commented on this line because Jake and I went back and forth on whether the reference was clear! But that's exactly what it feels like and partly why that visual of the wizard behind the curtain is enduring.

There's always some minority of a population with a more finely tuned bullshit meter! Like Dorothy, they're the ones who bother to dig a little deeper and find out things aren't what they seem—both bad news, but also good news because it means things can potentially improve. The pandemic is definitely the most historic "curtain fall" moment I've lived through! Glad the virtual yellow brick road led you here 😊
