“”Government schools.””

Nonsense - probably 98% of freepers went to government schools.

I disagree. I’m public school-educated but didn’t fall for the brainwashing. Neither did a lot of my friends. We had many things in common but one sticks out pertinent to this discussion - strong, intelligent, involved parents. Without that we might’ve given in too as our skulls were full of mush. Every liberal I know has some sort of self-loathing that is either innate or comes from a toxic home environment.

If you try, you can reason better than that.

I did, but I also had parents who took interest into what went on at school and cared to call out bullshit when they saw it.

Many Gen Y/Millennials I grew up with had parents who either:

A) Were workaholics, not really present for their kids.

B) Brain-dead hippies who never grew up and drank/did drugs in front of their kids, enabling stupidity and bad behavior to be “cool” and “friends” with their kids.

C) Didn’t really care so long as they got As and could brag/live vicariously through their children by forcing them to be overachievers.

D) All of the above.

Have you had kids in school in the last 15 years? It isn’t what it was when most freepers were there.
