Manhattan pharma heiress says her mom had to hire $300-a-day DEPROGRAMMER to help her unlearn crazed woke views after she was brainwashed while attending elite Mount Holyoke college

A Manhattan pharma heiress said her mother had to hire her a $300-a-day deprogrammer to unlearn the woke views she was 'brainwashed' with at an all-woman's Massachusetts college.

Annabella Rockwell, 29, graduated from Mount Holyoke in Western Massachusetts in 2015 and said it drove her to drink and made her briefly become estranged from her mother

Prior to attending the elite school to study history, which charges $60,000 a year, Rockwell said she grew up in a 'traditional' household and had considered herself to be open-minded.

However, the politics minor claimed the all-women's school 'totally indoctrinated' her.

'This professor tells me about the patriarchy. I barely knew what the word meant. I didn’t know what she was talking about,' she told the New York Post. 'I wasn’t someone that into feminism.

'But I was told there’s the patriarchy and you don’t even understand it’s been working against you your whole life. You’ve been oppressed and you didn’t even know it. Now you have to fight it.

'And I just went down this deep rabbit hole.'

'I saw everything through the lens of oppression and bias and victimhood. I came to the school as someone who saw everyone equally. I left looking for injustice wherever I could and automatically assuming that all white men were sexist

That rabbit hole - which started when she took a Gender Studies class in her junior year left a deep division between her and her mom. She felt she had to educate about the real state of the world

In her post-graduation manifesto, she also accused her mother Melina, who she had once considered her best friend, of never loving her.

'My thoughts were no longer my own,' she told the Post. 'I left school very anxious, very nervous, very depressed and sad

Pretty sure that was $300/hr.

Unless the mom accidentally hired a really talented non white male Dog walker by mistake

If Mom is ‘unwoke’ to the point of knowing that a deprogrammer is needed, then what the hell was she thinking when she sent her daughter to that s-hole college?

So how did she figure out she had been brainwashed? Could she not figure that out while being indoctrinated?

Not enough information.

Psychologists are not allowed to un-gay a person.

Are they allowed to un-woke a person?

article: "automatically assuming that all white men were sexist"

She is in for a sexist shock if she's ever around Hispanic or Negro men.

Colleges and many private and public grade school are no longer education institutions.

They are now indoctrination centers.

Now, multiply her case by about 40 million over the past 30 years or so, and you can see what we're up against. Also, this makes a lot more sense:

“Elite” referring to a college is akin to “Coupe De Crappe” on a Cadillac.

Pointless unless she has her eyes, ears and nose checked first

I’m thinking she’s a total loss.

Even if she joined the military she would be somewhat baptized into an increasingly woke culture, such as,

Countering this is the news of, The Pentagon Forming a Diversity and Inclusion Office, and

allowing transgenders to serve in the military,

and with the Pentagon even ensuring free gender reassignment surgery for active military personnel,

with Army mandatory training now including training Army personnel to know what to do in such scenarios as when a soldier who was "assigned" a biological gender at birth says he/she identifies as another gender, and lives as such in off-duty hours, but is not requesting to be treated as such while on duty, versus if such later requests to be identified as according to their chosen gender during duty hours, and/or experiences increased distress relating to his/her gender identity;

while apparently as part of the Naval Sea Systems Command Inclusion & Engagement Council’s Diversity Team's video series called “NAVSpEAks,” the Navy posts video on "the importance of using correct pronouns as well as polite etiquette when you may not be sure of someone's pronouns"

and the Air Force being with WOKEism in creating 'LGBTQ' and 'Indigenous Nations Equality' Focus Groups,

and also authorizing the use of gender pronouns in signature blocks,

and hosting a drag show at festival at Joint Base Langley-Eustis (JBLE) on July, 2022, which also includes a poem on “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion,”

while the Army arms itself with a woke recruitment ad featuring lesbians at a gay wedding and an LGBTQ pride march,

and the CIA funds a 'cisgender millennial with anxiety disorder' campaign, and with the

Marines and Navy as well as the Air Force and Army posting messages on social media supporting gay pride and Pride Month,

with the former posting rainbow bullets, and the latter a rainbow colored arm and hand in salute (essentially to the flag of Sodom)

and with the Navy naming a military ship after gay rights leader Harvey Milk, and (now) with a transgender veteran christening it,

along with the Navy's first all gay U.S. Navy helicopter crew,

to lower fitness standards for women

while nearly half of female soldiers are still failing the new Army Fitness Test,

yet calling for Increased Diversity and More Women in Combat,

and changing its song to be gender-neutral,

and Forcing Marines to Make Boot Camp Coed,

and feeding cadets cultural Marxist propaganda about gender and masculinity therein,

to its new diversity and inclusion operation from West Point

and for its Special Operations Command ,

while showing a rapid response readiness to engage in online combat with the likes of Tucker Carson and other such enemies

thus nuking Jesus-themed candies on an Air Force bases

as well as the Pentagon ordering a company to stop making faith-based Dog Tags,

and prohibiting service members from “liking” or reposting "extremist" views on social media (depending on all the circumstances involved) as part of its prohibition against actively engaging in extremist activities,

yet allowing turbans and hijabs in the Air Force,

while working to rid the military of “extremism

such as the head of the US Space Force unit being fired and put under investigation for criticizing Critical Race Theory

And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens. (Ezra 9:6)

A little research on the Sergeant above shows that it gets more extensive, as the devil works to pervert all that God ordained, and to our good. May they all come to salvation in Christ:

Also, last I saw, 71% of young people are ineligible for the military. The Army dropped grenade throwing as a requirement to graduate because new recruits could not throw far enough. “We are finding that there are a large number of trainees that come in that quite frankly just physically don’t have the capacity to throw a hand grenade 20 to 25 [82 feet] to 30 meters." Also, there is the Intellectual Decline of the Army Officer Corps. The size of the U.S. military in 2017 was half of what it was in 1990, and in general I think many signed up for the benefits rather than patriotism. 16% were women and racial and ethnic minorities made up 43%, and a poll from the Military Times and Syracuse University's Institute for Veterans and Military Families conducted in July 2020, 49.9 percent of 1,018 active-duty military respondents had an unfavorable view of the president, compared to about 38 percent who had a favorable view. That poll showed Biden with a 4-percentage-point lead over Trump
