I've done everything I can do show people what is happening in the schools....and they still won't look.
I'm heartbroken. But it's time to face reality.
This article outlines changes coming to my content, particularly on YouTube, and explains why those changes are happening. If you’d like to continue to access my reporting on the schools, then please consider funding my work.
I’m heartbroken, and I want to take a moment to explain why. Because it will change the way I’m creating content.
What this will impact: My free, public content, primarily on my YouTube channel.
What this WILL NOT impact: My premium Substack content and the Schools Exposed program. In other words, if you are paying to support my work, then you will still get this content. The amount I cover it will relate directly to the amount of support I receive.
For two years, I’ve done more than I can possibly articulate to show you what is happening in the public schools.
I can show you the policies that are allowing them to trans your kids without telling you.
I can show you the teacher trainings your school districts are paying tens of thousands of dollars for that are teaching teachers to denounce capitalism and whiteness.
I can show you the materials they’re having your kids read that are far worse than the books you’re fighting to ban in the libraries.
I’ve extensively documented the woke practices in the curriculum and school policies, the things that actually matter and directly impact all of your children.
And all of this content is underperforming.
What that means is that people aren’t watching/reading it, engaging with it, sharing it, etc.
This is content people claim to want, claim is very important…and then ignore.
I’ve tried everything…and all of the numbers tell me that you simply do not care about this content. And I’m heartbroken over it because it’s really the only content I think is important.
No matter what I do, no matter what I offer, I can’t get people to care.
It’s not for a lack of trying. I literally planned my entire year around covering this type of content. I have begged, I have pleaded, I’ve shown you things that no one else on the internet has shown you, always from primary source videos and receipts. You can find some of it in this Substack. You can find more of it on my YouTube channel, because I’ve been making it there for two years.
A little over a month ago, I posted this article telling you that I wanted to create an online database for this content to make it freely available to all, and a directory of all the activist organizations in schools but that I needed your help to do it.
I asked you to fund it with a monthly or annual subscription to the Substack.
Literally zero people signed up as a result of this ask.
Zero people thought this was worth $5/month.
I have over 13,000 people subscribed. Not one of them thought this content was worth supporting.
This was the first major blow.
So, we don’t have to do it. Message received.
I’ve known this for a while, but I just thought that if I kept pushing through and just kept making it, eventually people would catch on. They would see and focus on what they needed to do to fix the schools.
It’s been an uphill fight for two years and I’ve finally hit the wall.
My other content doesn’t have this problem.
It’s only the most important content that has this problem.
The content that everyone claims to want and yet no one is willing to watch, cover, and support.
I’m heartbroken that, for all of the people who claim to care about what is going in the schools, I cannot get people to actually look at content I’m creating showing them what’s happening.
It’s like complaining is just a virtue signal and they don’t really mean it.
This problem came to a head last week when I spent so much energy covering the Steven Crowder controversy. People loved that content. Tens of thousands of people watched it. I had over 400 people on a live stream at 2am discussing it.
So why am I just not doing more of that? It has 15x the views. I make 40 times the money on it (seriously). It takes far less work, far less brain power, is significantly more lucrative. So why am I just not doing that?
People call me a grifter every day of my life but I’m a horrible grifter because I could be making so much more money if I stopped trying to do the content showing people what’s happening in the schools and focused on drama/pop culture instead.
Money isn’t everything, and I’ve never let money dictate my work. But the fact is that if I can’t get people to look at a piece of content, then why am I even creating it in the first place?
So I decided to make one last plea.
Back in January, I covered Autistic Sex Education. I infiltrated a training that was presented at the national sex ed conference as a keynote (which means it’s effectively the national standard), and I showed you what was being taught. I showed you all of it, in its full form. And I made 17 different clips to break it down for people who didn’t want to watch the full training.
The content was shocking. It has haunted me.
In order to adequately cover it, clip it, understand it and report on it, I had to watch the content multiple times. So if you think this content is too hard for you to watch, keep in mind that I have to watch it multiple times to cover it. Why am I putting myself through this when people don’t want to see?
When I exposed this, only 2,000 people watched it, and it got no media coverage.
It wasn’t that your media didn’t know about it. They did. They made the choice to not cover it.
One major media outlet invited me on one of their shows to talk about it. Then they canceled a half hour later, because they had more important things to cover.
Apparently, women wearing low-cut tops is more important that autistic children being socially transitioned in public schools.
Of course, I can’t take any of this personally because it’s not about me.
It’s about a lack of priorities.
It’s about influencers using these issues to drum up outrage and then not wanting to do anything that could lead to actually solving the problem.
But the people will support it, right? Don’t parents want to know what’s happening?
The other night, I re-uploaded and premiered the full Autistic Sex Ed training for people to watch again:
Again, only 2,000 people watched it. Compare that to 15,000 for Steven Crowder.
So, that failed.
I’ve made $24 covering autistic sex ed and over $1,000 covering Steven Crowder.
The people are showing me what they want with their actions.
But people were like “Two hours is too long!!! Make clips!!!! I’ll watch the clips!!!!!”
So I spent all day yesterday making clips. I uploaded them to my channel, created a playlist, put it on the top of my homepage:
I posted community updates with every clip saying “if you want me to keep making this content, then you need to watch it.”
Each of those clips has less than 1,000 views on it as of this writing.
The short clips people begged me for have fewer views than the two-hour stream that only a few thousand people watched.
And I doubt those numbers will change.
Last night, I did a stream explaining very clearly that if people do not watch the content I’ve headed them on a silver platter that they claim to want, then I will not produce any more of it.
And that stream has more views on it than the content they claim to want:
What that means is that they watched a stream saying “I’m not doing this anymore if you’re not going to show up and watch it” and that wasn’t enough to get them to show up and watch it.
So, I guess this is the end of the road for the schools content.
I will still run my private training program and teach parents how to find the content on their school websites, but that will not be made public. It will only be for people who value it.
I will still occasionally produce members content behind the paywall for the Substack when people send me things.
But there will be no public database, no activist directory, and no further schools exposed content on my YouTube channel UNLESS people show up and show me they want it.
I cannot continue to personally fund things that the public is not supporting. I’ve been doing it for two years. Enough is enough.
This is truly heartbreaking to me, because I think it’s the most important content I can create.
But if people don’t want to watch it, there is no point.
I’m in a bit of a mourning over this. It is not something I saw coming. But the numbers don’t lie.
If people valued this content, they would read/watch it. They would support it. And it would get coverage.
I’ve fought for two years for those things to happen. They haven’t.
I’m exhausted. And I’m heartbroken that people don’t actually care about the thing they claim to care about more than anything.
We are going to lose to the woke left because they’ve captured the schools, and no one cares enough to do anything about it.
So, where does that leave things?
I will continue to create content on this substack that will mostly focus on general interest woke stuff, and most of it will be behind a paywall. All original reporting will be behind a paywall. I jus cannot continue to give so much of myself to this if people do not value what I’m doing.
I will continue to help people privately who support my work through financial contributions.
I will no longer be offering any help for free, because it’s clear to me the free help I’ve offered for years isn’t valued.
So, if you want to continue to get access, you know what to do:
This was a heartbreaking read. The work you do is important. It's far more pressing than what a grown woman wears to the gym.
You were the only one who extensively covered my substack experience. I'm grateful. Unfortunately that video still has under 1k views. My goal is to empower students to share their experiences.
I believe everyone that hears about this feels as if they are simply powerless, IF they even believe it enough to listen to the content. It’s difficult for them to comprehend that this is even happening or they are more liberal minded and don’t wish to face the truth. It’s like talking to a damn brick wall! Those that matter to me are already burnt out on politics over the last two yrs of Covid bullshit! They don’t even want to hear anything about “political things”!
