Indoctrinated kids' world collapses
http://www.lifezette.com/polizette/k...alright-trump/
Quote:
What we're seeing here is mind control, indoctrination, and deliberate mis-education on the part of a nearly all-powerful government education system which needs to be taken down, but there is even more to it than that. Every source of information available to these kids is wrecking their minds with the same garbage: government schools, libtard-infested colleges, Hollywood. MSM media sources, and even their own locked-down areas on the internet. In military terms, you'd call that interlocking fields of fire and these kids are trapped in the field. Expect to see major efforts to rescue them during a Trump administration. |

Schools and colleges 'indoctrinate', whereas being taught by your parents at home to uncritically accept all of their own personal beliefs is 'education'.

Oh I think the kiddies can find websites well enough, no matter which flavor of propaganda I intend to serve them. The real problem is getting the little bastards to eat it.

People are upset. They are sad because things will get worse for people they care about. A group that has the ability to make it easier because they are nice.
What is wrong with this? |

1) I'm not even sure what you think the conspiracy is supposed to be?
2) There's not rule of logic or anything like that stating that all "conspiracy theories" are bad or wrong. Real world conspiracies happen all the time, and in these cases, the people presenting conspiracy theories are right! It is overall an opinion piece, but that doesn't mean it doesn't include a lot of facts. |

A friend of mine's gay daughter was assaulted on campus yesterday. Her attacker cited his freedom to do so under the new President.
If you voted for Trump, you voted for that. Congratulations, *******. |

I don't give a **** what you buy or don't buy. It's the truth.
The opinions of people like you mean as much to me as the gum I stepped on. Hers isn't the only story either. If you want, you can even look it up your own damn self instead of gloating about someone else's misfortune. |

To add some relevant points to the OP:
https://www.opensecrets.org/news/201...rom-educators/
Quote:
Quote:
I can state anecdotally that my professors are by vast majority hard core to the left and made no bones about sending myself scathing criticisms for making counterarguments about Clinton. And like many here, they are currently making no bones about being pissed off about the results or about insulting the half of the electorate that propelled Trump. So none of the article actually surprises me. In fact, i recalls the day Obama took the oath of office our university pretty much paused all classes to broadcast the inauguration. Needless to say, part of the reason was that history was in the making as the first African American POTUS, but given the melodrama that educational institutions are laying out already I'm fairly certain they have other ideas in mind on the day Trump takes the oath. The donation trends would certainly back up quite a bit of the notions that point out a lack of political diversity in the education system. |

The lack of self-awareness about the implications of this tilt are what amuse me. What exactly do universities expect to happen under a Republican administration when they prove themselves implacably hostile to Republicans? Do they really think there won't be any implications for government funding?

Tough, it's happening. My black SiL and the Muslim woman in line behind her were hassled the whole time they were in line to vote. In Minnesota. SiL's daughter was given a bus pass at her middle school. Bus pass back to Africa.

The entire US public ed system is based on a Prussian system which Prussians adopted around 1807 after Napoleon wiped them at Jena. That system was not intended to produce self-reliant people; it was meant to produce cannon fodder and bricks in the wall.

Donald Trump is offering queers more or less the same deal they have in Russia.
They WILL be protected to the full extent of the law. But it is unlikely they will be allowed to go on trying to recruit and proselytize or conduct techniques of gayety classes in public schools. The demmunists on the other hand, in their manic drive to import new voting blocks (since nobody with any brains or talent in our own country can be counted on to go on voting for them in perpetuity), are attempting to bring in vast hordes and swarms of people whose known policies towards gays is to simply kill them. The good news is that increasing numbers of gay people are now figuring this out. What happened in this election is that the internet itself came of age; people with real information actually became a voting majority. |
