Love this. We were out in Wyoming last year and a woman dishing up ice cream for us said “why do they keep telling us we hate each other?”

We don’t. Talk to real people, in real life, and you’ll know the lie for what it is.

Dear Chris, Just returned from France visiting my sister and kids in a beautiful town called Divonne Les Bains. It’s a different world. Zero signs of insanity. Looked at the kids school schedule. Physics , math, geography, history. Deep intelligent conversations with a 13 yr old and 15 yr old. They chuckle at the stories they hear from their mom and dad about the woke crap peddling .

Did plenty of hikes in the Jura mountains. Tons of young teens hiking and picnicking mountaintop . The farmers market filled with people enjoying wine , cheese bread all locally made.

I went off Twitter months ago as well my only Substack is Trish Wood and you. The reality around me even here two hours north of Toronto in a small town called Thornbury on the shores of Georgian Bay doesn’t reflect what I was reading. Dinner parties and gathering with friends never broaches the garbage subject matter.

Now having returned from my sisters village and a trip to Provence my spirit is renewed. Lots of happy people enjoying life , the scenery , the food and wine. I looked at the cafes full of happy people and said to myself “ good luck to them with their great reset . It’s all bullshit. The world will go on in spite of them. Your never going to take foie gras, away from the French, or having a good time in America
