I Said What I Said

And I'm Not Sorry

Ooooh boy, it has been an interesting week on the interwebs for me. The funny thing is that I was just posting on X like I usually do, and all of a sudden, my notifications were just swamped with very hateful messages.

For those who aren’t on X, I will do a quick summary of events. You are also more than welcome to see for yourself here.

But here are the SparkNotes version:

1. I posted saying that Mother’s Day is not for women who own plants, have pets, aborted their babies (and have not repented), have never been pregnant, have never adopted, women who claim motherly roles such as being an aunt but have no real relationship with those children, and men pretending to be women. Being so inclusive cheapens what it means to be a woman and a mother.

2. Leftist X lost their collective mind. This one post as of today has over 820K views and three thousand comments. There are a lot of people who agree with me, but there were A LOT of very angry bitter people who were on the attack.

3. People were claiming that I was a fake Christian, saying I was miserable, that I should have been aborted, and called me every other name under the sun.

4. I did not back down, and that made them absolutely rabid.

Not Fazed

I’m really not bothered with what internet strangers have to say about me. I actually didn’t see most of the hateful comments because of how I have my account setup. I usually only saw something when a mutual would make comment. These people can continue to scream into the void for all I care. They are doing nothing but wasting their own time while I am spending time with my husband and my pup.

There were three specific people who gave me pause though. The first was what I would assume is a woman using an alt anonymous account thinking she could shut me up by saying I am not a real mother. The only reason I gave her any time was because she was telling people over and over again that I had a chemical pregnancy and that somehow didn’t make me a real mother.

I only responded because that was false. I lost my baby at 7 weeks and it was an ectopic pregnancy. Chemical pregnancies do not make it past 5 weeks. Even if it were a chemical, it still would make me a mother.

The second was another loony who called me a bad Christian for having an abortion. It’s always comical when non-believers think we care what they think about us and our faith. You don’t get to proclaim your hate for God and then dictate who is a good Christian or not. Anyway, this woman was conflating elective abortion with ectopic treatment. Again, she was lying. And I just could not allow anyone to spread that kind of misinformation because there are people out there who unnecessarily live with guilt because they had a procedure done to save their life. This person spoke with malice implying that pro-life mothers must risk dying to avoid looking like a hypocrite. But, ectopic treatment is not the same as an elective abortion. I also never had to undergo any treatment as my pregnancy resolved on its own. Also, even if I have never experienced pregnancy, it doesn’t change the fact that I am right.

Finally, the third person was a man who was so irked that he decided to hate follow me and fill my notifications with hateful comments. Some of my mutuals stepped in to try to shut him down. That is when he decided to share that my post made him angry enough that he found my exact location. Think about that for a second. Speaking the truth that only women who have children are mothers angered this man so much that he had to look up my private information. I’m not too concerned though. I live in Texas and sending threats through the mail is a felony. Also, reverse image search is a wonderful tool.

What Is Wrong With People?

I really struggle wrapping my head around why people get so up in arms about something so simple. And that they take so much time out of their days to make sure everyone knows they are angry.

We are losing any kind of meaning in things on a daily basis. Some people were telling me that anyone and everyone could be a mother to be celebrated. And if that’s the case, then no one is celebrated. One person said I was a sh*t stain and that as a “real” mom she says that basically anyone can be a mother. What’s so ironic in that statement is that if anyone could be a mother, then there is literally no reason for her to use a qualifier. It was in an attempt to tear me down, but it was self-defeating and just made me laugh.

They also said I had not authority to dictate who was celebrated. But then dictated whether I was a mother or not. These people don’t understand double standards if their lived depended on it.

I have never once read a post or article or watched a video and been so angry that I would be motivated to try to doxx someone. These people scream that conservatives and Christians dehumanize trans and gay people for not playing into their delusion. But then they dehumanize anyone they disagree with by finding where they work or live to try to intimidate them and make them shut up.

Hey Look, Ma! I Made It!

It wasn’t all crazies in my mentions. With all the traction this post made, I got on the radar of a few commentators like Alex Clark and Lauren Chen. This afternoon, an X mutual let me know that Brett Cooper talked about my post on her show, The Comments Section.

I did not make this post to gain attention. I posted because I was so frustrated at having all of my social media feeds and e-mail filled with virtue signaling to make everyone feel included on days like Mother’s Day.

So, seeing these commentators as well as so many of my friends on social media weigh in helped keep me from feeling like the only sane one the last four days.

I also had several friends check in on me to make sure I was handling all the backlash well. They were so sweet. But there was a running trend: DO NOT DELETE YOUR THREAD!

Trust me, I never even thought to delete it nor make my account private. I said what I said and I am not sorry about it at all.

We Can Learn Something Here

Just before Mother’s Day, a video went viral of a man who thinks he is a woman sitting in a hospital bed after his surrogate had a baby for him. The very same people foaming at the mouth at what I said, were celebrating this situation. You know, the literal representation of the Handmaid’s Tale. It just shows the priorities of so many people in our society. We were warned that people will start to call good things evil and evil things good. Despite the warning, it doesn’t make it any less frustrating.

With the changes in Title IX, men in women’s sports and locker rooms, etc., we see that women are losing every single day. The responses to what I said show us how little people think about women and mothers. This is the real war on women. Not that there aren’t enough female CEOs or the lie that women only make 75 cents to every man’s dollar. We are seeing the erasure of women.

We are also seeing the destruction of the family and any sense of tradition. People want to celebrate dog moms on Mother’s Day because there is no respect for the family unit and the real role mothers play in society. When we tear down the family, we are destroying society. This is Marxist style thinking and we really need to nip it in the bud before it gets a tighter grip on the younger generations.

This is all happening before our very eyes, and when you speak up about it, you’re screeched at until you shut up. Here’s the thing though…I don’t really do well with bullies. And I certainly don’t like being told what to do. My husband and parents can vouch for that.

What I said the other day was not out of character for me. I share my thoughts on X like that all the time. This one just happened to go viral. I don’t plan on making any changes in my behavior any time soon. And if I do make any changes, I am going to get more outspoken. We really need to put an end to this madness. It isn’t going to happen until women step up and say ENOUGH!
