Remember the 60’s? “hey hey ho ho western civ’s got to go!”
Nothing has changed. The left is obsessed with hatred for Western Civilization because it’s based on Christian/Jewish values and values the individual over the collectivity.

What they want is a totalitarian oppressive state that controls everything, and that suppresses the individual in favor of the collectivity and the ruling elite.

QFT: “What they want is a totalitarian oppressive state that controls everything, and that suppresses the individual in favor of the collectivity and the ruling elite.”

IMO, rigorous study and proper understanding of The Enlightenment as it led to the American Revolution should convince any honest person that without the study of the Classics as the basis for their education, the Founders would have been unprepared to organize the effort to write the two greatest documents of Western Civilization: the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution.

More than enough examples of that in Western Civilization from Sparta where most of the residents were slaves and even the citizens were tyrannically regulated to the 2016 Democratic national convention.

Western Civilization and Biblical Christianity are the twin pillars of personal liberty.

The Marxists and Muslims hate liberty, and are united in their hatred of these pillars.
