Escaping the B$llsh*t: Three Years of Wandering the Globe

It’s been many moons since I last posted, so I’m here to update you loyal readers who still check in. 

What have I, Tony D, been up to for the last three years? It’s a bit of an odyssey. 

In 2020, after ten years there, I gave up my Vancouver apartment and sold or gifted nearly everything I owned.

I planned to visit family and then travel the world for a year. So I moved to my Mother’s place in rural Canada to spend time with family before moving on. 

Then the apocalypse happened. 

I heard on the Internet about a deadly virus spreading in China called,  “The Wuhan Flu.” My family already suffered a bad flu season and I figured… that was probably it. 

Back then the experts said the flu was “already widespread” around the world. There wasn’t anything to worry about, they lied. But there was something to worry a bout. There were hints of something sinister on the horizon.

The mainstream news was pushing the, “there’s nothing to worry about,” narrative.

So of course most of us weren’t worried. But I was. I haven’t trusted the mainstream news for years. In my humble opinion, most corporate-owned media is entirely corrupt and whatever they claim is true, you should believe the opposite. 

I warned my family and told them to prepare for media-induced panic by buying drinking water, canned food, and other goods that may be hard to come by once the sheeplike masses lost their collective soft minds. 

Over the next month, the media changed its tune from, “There’s nothing to worry about,” to “Hospitals are overwhelmed, people are dying in the street, you have to wear a piece of paper on your face and get an experimental gene therapy or you are literally killing grandma, you racist, woman-hating Nazis!” 

The Canadian government closed all the national parks.

This didn’t make much sense. Why close parks and keep everyone cramped indoors? Then I thought wow… there’s nobody in the parks? 

I’d been getting into nature hiking already and I got a backpack, water filters, dry bags, tents, and everything I needed to camp in the outback. 

I went out into the wilderness for days on end, at first with my cousin, and then alone, hiking, fishing, and camping in nature. It’s still one of my greatest passions. 

After one trip into the backcountry, I emerged to find my favourite local cafes and shops were shut down, but Starbucks, Walmart, and all the other corporate entities were allowed to remain open. These corporations, including Big Pharma, made record profits while independent, small businesses lost everything. 

My gym was still open but now I had to wear a piece of paper on my face while I worked out. Didn’t Dr. Fauci and the CDC just tell us that even N95 masks would not work to prevent transmission, or protect from it? Why were they now changing their “expert” opinions? 

Then there were stickers on the streets, in the malls, telling us to stay six feet away from other each other and to only walk in specified directions. I purposely walked against the stickers just to see who was willing to enforce these idiotic rules. 

I’m no doctor, but Momma didn’t raise no fool.

I can tell what’s real and what’s bullshit. For me, this whole pandemic was just another extension of the culture war. 

Pearl-clutching commies wanted me to chop my balls off, stay inside full time, shoot myself full of gene therapies and anti-depressants, and spend the rest of my savings binge-shopping on Amazon.com, watching streaming porn and eating grasshoppers. 

Nope, not for me. 

I saw that the Western world was losing its collective mind and bought a one-way ticket to Mexico.

Mexico was the one country south that did not implement MRNA vaccine mandates. As I was not about to be a Guinea Pig for Big Pharma, I flew away and took refuge on the hot beaches, cool mountains, and arid plains of Mexico. 

I watched the news for other countries that dropped their draconian vaccine mandates and over 2.5 years I went to 14 countries, including: 

• Mexico 

• Guatemala

• Colombia

• Romania

• Serbia

• Hungary

• Turkey

• Georgia

• Montenegro

• Bulgaria

• Macedonia

• Thailand 

• Cambodia

• and Vietnam 

Many of these countries would change their vaccine mandates mid-trip, and many still had mask policies – but almost always only in the cities.

I mostly stuck to small towns. So as one country would fall back into hysteria, I would travel to another that was more in touch with common sense. 

I stayed out of Canada for 2.5 years not because I was having so much fun, but because my vaccine status barred me from travel on airplanes, trains, and inter-city buses.

Sure, I could have just bought a vaccine pass from a Mexican doctor, but I chose to ride it out abroad. 

What else did I do? 

I started a Youtube travel channel which now has 189 videos, 5.2k subscribers, and 800,000 views. It is called Tony Travels. 

I briefly found a full-time job as a junior copywriter. It lasted about five months. I’m not very good at being a full-time employee. I get bored very easily.

I need money, but I’ve never valued money over freedom. I may end up poor in my old age, but at least I lived while I was young. 

I started my first Sci-Fi novel. It’s called, “Slaves,” and it’s about a 16 year old boy who lives in a dystopian skyscraper called The Mall. He lives full-time in a small cement room, in an AI, virtual/augmented reality haptic suit. 

The theme is about how much freedom we are willing to give up for safety and entertainment. It will be done by 2046. 

The so-called, “pandemic,” was one of the best things that ever happened to me. 

They said I would kill Grandma, and sadly during my trip, even though she had her Covid shots and all the boosters she succumbed to pneumonia and passed at the age of 94. Rest in peace, Grandma. On the other side of the family, my Grandfather passed as well. 

In the end, I never got vaccinated, and I didn’t lock down.

History will look back on this era as one of the best cons in human history. All the entities who attempted to gaslight the freethinkers into submission can lick the pureblood sweat off my freedom and truth-loving balls. 

What’s next for Tony? 

I’m redesigning my blog and coaching biz from the ground up. 

I have many deep interests in self-development, psychology, stoicism, critical thought, spirituality, health, fitness, travel, politics, entrepreneurship, and even sex and relationships. 

I’m a philosopher at heart, and I still love teaching men how to improve their lives. 

I will use sex as the gateway to bring men in, and that can be their springboard to more profound truth and meaning. 

I’m also setting up my side business as a digital marketing expert and copywriter. It’s either that or starting a cult.

I’m leaning heavily into AI for this which is another story, and one of the reasons I’m going back to dating coaching. Try asking ChatGPT how to give Taiwanese girls squirting orgasms. 

I’ve set up a new “Remote Coaching” page. 

I’m retired from infield bootcamps but I still enjoy mentoring. And now thanks to amazing advances in video streaming technology, I can easily teach from almost anywhere.. 

That’s all for now.
