“It’s a tragedy that this anti-intellectual movement of canceling the classics is gaining traction among educators and the mainstream publishing industry. Erasing the history of great works only limits the ability of children to become literate.”

It is really a crime, and—0ne way or another—it must be purged from education.

I am reading one of Charles Coulombe “Blessed Charles of Austria: A Holy Emperior and His Legacy.” He is a fine writer with a sense and understanding of European history.

Cancelling America AND western civilization

[Jeepers43]

"Erasing the history of great works only limits the ability of children to become literate.”

But that's the entire point of erasing history, to erase the past so that the tyrannical "new way" can be installed. And if you don't like that, well it's off to the Gulag, the Killing Field, the ovens, the ditch in the field.

That was the point of the USA statue destruction this summer. Destroying history is the signature initial action of all tyrants including ALL Marxist and Communist infiltrations, which is precisely what the USA is now experiencing.

Since 1995 and most clearly since 2008 we are witnessing the destruction of the Republic. It's ongoing and naked and shameless, in front of our very eyes.

It always begins with the rewriting of history - of which the USA is fully down the road - followed by physical destruction of everything from the past.

It's the CCP and Red Guard Cultural Revolution, Pol Pot's Year Zero, the 1792 French Year One, and every other murderous and tyrannical psychosis in human history. Right here, right now.

Even Wikipedia knows ths! Heres a snippet about the 1966 CCP and Red Guard campaign against the "Four Olds" (to wit, against history):

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Olds

[The Four Olds were defined as anti-proletarian, "fostered by the exploiting classes, [and to] have poisoned the minds of the people for thousands of years".... customs, cultures, habits, and ideas]

The campaign to Destroy the Four Olds and Cultivate the Four News ... The first things to change were the names of streets and stores: "Blue Sky Clothes Store" to "Defending Mao Zedong Clothes Store"..... Many people also changed their given names to revolutionary slogans...

Other manifestations of the Red Guard campaign included giving speeches, posting big-character posters, and harassment of people, such as intellectuals,[7] who defiantly demonstrated the Four Olds.[3] In later stages of the campaign, examples of Chinese architecture were destroyed, classical literature and Chinese paintings were torn apart, and Chinese temples were desecrated.[4]

The Cemetery of Confucius was attacked in November 1966, during the Cultural Revolution, when it was visited and vandalized by a team of Red Guards.... The corpse of the 76th-generation Duke Yansheng was removed from its grave and hung naked from a tree in front of the palace during the desecration of the cemetery in the Cultural Revolution.[10]

It can't happen here?

I beg to differ. It IS happening here. Now. In front of our eyes. This is only the beginning. It's coordinated and planned, and it will get worse.

When that homeless Antifa/BLM drug addict starts erecting is shanty on your front lawn, and defecating on your driveway, and all under color of "law", you'll know without any further question that Year Zero has arrived.
