American children are fucked with a capital F — whether literally by the LGBTQ+++™ groomers with a voracious appetite for scalping their genitals or figuratively by the pharmaceutical industry.
All the while, gleeful Boomers point the generational finger and laugh at the plight of Zoomers — as if they didn’t create the conditions that produced their degeneration in the first place, as if the progeny of Western civilization spontaneously sprang from the ether psychologically crippled.

Via The New York Times:
“Growing numbers of children and adolescents are being prescribed multiple psychiatric drugs to take simultaneously, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Maryland. The phenomenon is increasing despite warnings that psychotropic drug combinations in young people have not been tested for safety or studied for their impact on the developing brain…
The study, published Friday in JAMA Open Network, looked at the prescribing patterns among patients 17 or younger enrolled in Medicaid from 2015 to 2020 in a single U.S. state that the researchers declined to name. In this group, there was a 9.5 percent increase in the prevalence of “polypharmacy,” which the study defined as taking three or more different classes of psychiatric medications, including antidepressants, mood-stabilizing anticonvulsants, sedatives and drugs for A.D.H.D. and anxiety drugs.”
It’s frankly downright amazing that this story slipped through the NYT editorial board, not to mention the censors at the AMA. One must wonder how long the authors of either the NYT piece above or the JAMA study below are going to keep their jobs.
Via Journal of the American Medical Association:
“This is a sequential, annual, cross-sectional study using Medicaid eligibility files and fee-for-service and managed care medical encounter claims from 2015 to 2020 from a single US state. For each annual cohort, we included youths who were 17 years or younger, had received at least 1 pharmacy claim for psychotropic medication, and had 90 days or more of continuous Medicaid enrollment…
Psychotropic polypharmacy was significantly more likely among youths who were disabled (AOR, 3.68; 95% CI, 3.34-4.05) or in foster care (AOR, 3.31; 95% CI, 2.93-3.74) relative to youths in the low-income group…
Individuals who identified as other races (including individuals identifying as American Indian, Asian, Hispanic, or Pacific Islander, or other races) (AOR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.50-0.59) had significantly lower odds of psychotropic polypharmacy than White individuals*.”
*And there you have it: the psychosis of the white liberal mother on full quantitative display. Non-white parents still, at least statistically, have some modicum of common sense and well-deserved skepticism of the pharmaceutical industry.
The Anthony Fauci-worshipping class of The View-consuming wine moms, respecters of The Science™? Not so discerning.

My first thought was about the number of single mothers, parents actually, who 'innocently' drug their kids because they trust docs, are overwhelmed, and are basically alone doing a two person job.
Ben pointed out that this is more of a white problem, which could still mean single parent--but not like I immediately thought with the 75%ish number of black children born out of wedlock.
Then I thought of the the 'cluster b mother & trans' problem I read about recently. 53% of the mothers with Gender Dysphoric sons are cluster B personality disorder--with only 6% of those boys who don't want to cut off their junk.
I agree wholeheartedly with Ben's first sentence, but wouldn't limit the demographic to American children. We are all fucked.
I never really questioned how many 'vaccines' or drugs I was forced to take while in the Army--but a flu shot was mandatory.
The greatest weapon we had to fight the Global War on Terror was OBVIOUSLY the flu shot.
Our culture cannot live with any degree of discomfort for any amount of time. We are so fucked.

I haven't had time to read the article yet, but since I have seen no mention on alternative news, I wanted you to know that Gruesome Gretchen Witmer and her Demonic Atty. Gen. Dana Nessel have arrested two Republicans for not divulging the names of the donors to their movement to end her dictatorial Biden style lock downs and associated illegal emergency powers, claiming this was a great tragedy that threatened her ability to keep us " safe" .
For Pfizer?
If you don't recognize the name, she also conspired with the FBI to frame people for a cooked up kidnapping plot to keep the fear level up after Jan 6.
