But how are they on plain old pop music:
There is no hope. None.

Are you fidgety, wringing your hands, can’t sleep at night? That’s completely to be expected.
If you have heart palpitations, rapid breathing, pain in your chest, do not be surprised. Anyone who pays attention to the nightmare we inhabit could not react in any other way.
We have students going off to college who can’t tell you what 7×8 is. They can’t find Alaska on a map of the world. They don’t attach any meaning to the phrase “Nice play, Shakespeare.” That’s not even conceivable. If you’re alive at all, you necessarily have ulcers, indigestion, heartburn, and acid reflux. Those are intelligent responses to an intolerable emergency.
You are merely reacting as a thinking human being should react. America has millions of citizens who don’t know what the Moon is or where the Sun goes at night. How can that be possible if the schools were engaged, even remotely, in trying to educate their students?
Logically, you feel it, you sense it, you know it. Our schools are under the control of creatures who hate us and want to destroy our civilization.
Frightened about education? Good, you’re still aware and thinking. Almost certainly, an entire sector of our country has been taken over by aliens. Their every action is geared toward turning out passive, ignorant, unthinking humans who’ll be fit only for physical labor. Nervous should be your first reaction, on the way to full-blown terror.
Ah, these aliens, what is their grand design? All the evidence suggests they want humans who are content to be lifelong peasants. More probably, they want slaves.
Note how cunning these creatures are, these shape-shifting invaders. They are careful to use instructional programs that guarantee almost total illiteracy throughout the society. They are careful to make sure children don’t learn to do arithmetic, even the simple stuff like how many apples we need to make four pies. And knowledge—they are quite ingenious in keeping knowledge out of the classroom.
Teachers are not allowed to teach anymore, have you noticed this? Who else but a slaver chooses such an approach?
These slave traders breed up children to be really dumb. When they are full-grown, they are most likely kidnapped for sale in other planetary systems.
Kids drop out of public school and then they just disappear. Who can keep track of all these dropouts? Probably they are working in other dimensions now, and galaxies far away.
So if you are a big bundle of nerves, that’s a completely appropriate reaction to what seems to be a successful alien intrusion into our space and time.
Terror? Of course. Who can live like this? You want to surrender. You know this is a force too powerful. These aliens have such tricks, such deviousness. They will steal the alphabet from a baby and forget to tell children about numbers. Oh, the cunning.
They are, after all, aliens. Their way of thinking is impossible for us to understand, Unlike us, they want everyone to be dumber, not smarter. And they have tricks, oh so many tricks. They manipulate their victims, smother them, and finally dumb them down. They will make you pleased with your fate.
You will want to watch TV all day, and never have a thought in your head. They will give you a certificate of graduation to put on your wall. You’ll be so proud. Never mind that under the proper light, that certificate is a boarding pass to an outward-bound slave vessel.
Young people, does some spark in you still cherish freedom or worship knowledge? You have to slowly extinguish that spark. Or they will do it for you. You sense what is coming.
Of course you’re terrified.

Don’t need to with computers. Seriously my kids are taking classes at least a grade level ahead of when I did. Kids today are brilliant compared to what we were. Their technological abilities are beyond approach. I think we are in great shape with the 20 and younger group. I know I am excited for my four children’s future and the future of America too. Thank God we are ridding ourselves of the Boomers. They could not have destroyed American anymore if they tried. Worst generation ever and yes my parents are boomers and they agree with me.
...are you $uc$ing serious?....
if you are, you are an idiot
You are blind by the truth.
“They don’t attach any meaning to the phrase “Nice play, Shakespeare.”
LOL! (Sad, but funny!)
“Thank God we are ridding ourselves of the Boomers. They could not have destroyed American anymore if they tried. Worst generation ever and yes my parents are boomers and they agree with me.”
I am a Boomer. I think your post proves the guy’s point. Beyond approach?
"President Walker is our future President!"
1. Stereotyping is a sign of stupidity.
2. Walker is our future? He's pro-Amnesty/Pathway...like Comrade Obamatollah. Another insanely stupid comment.
Oh yea, I'm a Boomer...idiot!
Oh yea, I’m a Boomer...idiot!
Not a surprise that you are a Boomer and yes you have been a disaster. The truth is horrible to accept but you won’t because your arrogant. Walker is Gen X. I don’t care about immigration because it is not going to be part of the equation in 2016 because like President Reagan, President Obama will have taken acton on immigration and it will be done and over by 2016. Again your Boomer President were Clinton, Bush II and Obama......LOLOLOLOL and you are impressed.
“Don’t need to with computers.”
That’s a dangerous sentiment to entertain. Sure, knowledge is very accessible nowadays, but you still may not know what you are missing By that, I mean, unless something prompts you that you need to go google something to learn about it, you will not bother, because you are ignorant about what knowledge you lack.
For example, today at my work, I had to deal with a customer service issue. A young gentleman was insisting our payment interface on our website was malfunctioning, because it would not accept his credit card payment. Well, I check the error logs and see that he tried 15 times to make a credit card payment for a single penny, because that was the balance on his account.
Now, disregarding the fact that he would have incurred a $30 convenience fee to make a 1 cent payment, anyone with a basic understanding of credit cards knows that they charge a percentage fee of any transaction, and they cannot take a percent of a penny. Yet, he didn’t have that knowledge, and was ignorant even of the fact that this was an area he was ignorant about, so he just kept trying to do the same stupid thing until someone came along to stop him.
“Beyond approach?”
That’s “reproach.”
Yeah...we’re in great shape...
stereotyping is only a sign of stupidity if the stereotype is inaccurate.
stereotyping is generalizing. and we do it all the time, like on the street, for example. it’s called comon sense when it’s accurate.
The Boomers at the top of this government are the counter-culture hippie weirdos.
Yes, as a Boomer, I know I was spoiled. I have changed. Deeply.
I will say that we have left some of the best of us Boomers on the battlefields. Too many. Way too many.
“...I don’t care about immigration because it is not going to be part of the equation in 2016...”
LOL!!!!
Not only are you stupid, but you exposed yourself as a leftwing socialist pushing No BORDERS for a permanent socialist voting majority that will destroy the Constitution...just like Comrade Obamatollah
We Constitutional Americans call you lazy assed idiots treasonous communists without the intellect to grasp what it means to be an American.
btw, are you still living in Socialist Italy?
But how are they on plain old pop music:
There is no hope. None.
Perfect example.
Few things infuriate me more than young cashiers that cannot add and subtract. If the cash register rings up a wrong total, they won’t consider the possibility it’s a due to a data entry mistake.
