The powerful people who, in the late 1800's and early 1900's began to identify with and join the liberal/"progressive" movement now find the consequences of their censorship in full manifestation.
For instance, how unprepared are today's millennials for discussions on the current ideological battle between coercive tyranny, on the one hand, and ordered liberty, on the other?
Given the fact that, since the late 1800's, liberal/"progressive" control over the education of youth has dominated what is known as "public education," one must conclude that the answer is a strong "Very unprepared."
For any who have studied textbooks, curriculum materials, and the classroom teaching at all levels in American education over the past 60-70 years, there is clear evidence that students may spend 16 years in schools and never be led to explore the principles and ideas which have battled throughout the history of civilization related to tyranny versus individual liberty.
Even the ideas underlying America's Declaration of Independence--the very ideas which give the documents meaning and purpose--gradually, over time were censored from the classrooms.
How, then, can millennials begin to sort out those ideas which might influence their decisions on matter of liberty vs. tyranny?
Perhaps Divine Providence is providing the new technologies which allow today's high school, college, and young adults to discover in the writings and speeches of America's Founders in order to rediscover and restore America's Constitutional protections for ordered freedom.
Thanks for your great and wise reply.
In conversations I've had with these folks, they are very unprepared.. They seem acutely shallow and are very worried about trivial things. There's no depth. I feel sorry for them.
