Horowitz: A lost generation of children — thanks to adults acting like children
The Blaze ^ | December 2, 2020 | Daniel Horowitz

...Do we even have as much mercy on our children as we would on rats?

Why do I bring up rats? In 2019, researchers published a fascinating study in "Nature Neuroscience" showing that when rats already hooked on methamphetamine in a lab setting were given a choice between more interaction with other rats or refills of drugs, they chose social interaction. Rats are evidently very sociable creatures.

Do you know who else craves social interaction? Our children. And do you know who else resorts to drugs when despair and depression set in from social isolation? Our youth.

The twisted irony is that all these policies have caused our government to go trillions into debt in order to fund the fallout from the lockdown and business closures and shield the governors from making more balanced and rational choices without the federal printing presses bailing them out. Who will bear the entire burden of that debt? You guessed it: the same generation that is bearing the burden of those very lockdown policies.

Isolated = impaired social skills, fed a continuous stream of crap and told it’s science, told that violence is acceptable and that everyone is rascist, zero critical thinking skills, not learning anything via remote schooling, addicted to social media.

If that’s not a recipe for a lost generation I don’t know what is.

One of the toughest blows to our nation by the communists was to induce adults to act like children.

I remember seeing t-shirts and bumper stickers in the 1980s that said: “WHOEVER DIES WITH THE MOST TOYS WINS.”

When I saw that, I knew the propaganda was underway.

The left infantilizes adults and steals the childhood from children.

The fact that adults run around in t-shirts is childish in itself.

Of course, children used to be better dressed than most adults now.

What I’m talking about is attitude.

I don’t think wearing t-shirts has anything to do with the problem.

One is a reflection of the other.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence our society is in the toilet the same trajectory as people dressing like the dregs of society.
