Thanks for the post. This reminds me of back in the seventies when I was going to school there were socialist and communist groups on many campuses. I love to discuss anything so I would talk to them and they didn’t like questions that didn’t agree with their viewpoints. My father was a factory worker and they really didn’t like it when I pointed out how different their image of the oppressed worker was from reality. It was talking to these folks that pushed me toward being more conservative as I grew up.
Life has a way of overcoming a lot of those leftist lies.
One of my favorites was the one about rich kids getting out of going to Vietnam. My grandfather was raising 5 kids on an electrician’s salary and neither one of his two sons went to Vietnam. He wasn’t anti war by any means. He had done his time in WWII europe and figured that it was enough.
One son joined the national guard and the other got a college deferment.
