Leftist women and their Romper Room mentality
American Thinker ^ | 1/21/2026 | Andrea Widburg

Posted on 01/21/2026 8:14:36 AM PST by simpson96

One of my earliest memories dates to when I was three or, at most, four. Every day, I was glued to our black-and-white TV watching Romper Room, a television show for preschoolers. Miss Nancy opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and then conducted a 30-minute preschool class.

This is what Miss Nancy was like back in the 1960s:

It’s very sweet, very loving, very patriotic, and very appropriate for the 3-5-year-old set.

But what happens when an entire political party is taken over by a horde of Miss Nancys? And worse, what happens when those Miss Nancys don’t focus their energy on raising normal, patriotic children (indeed, they want fewer children in the world, and think infanticide through abortion is brilliant), and instead want to use their warped maternal longings to scold and dominate the world?

Well, to begin with, you have Holly Hunter in the new Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, which is being roundly castigated as the worst show ever in a swiftly declining franchise. Once, Starfleet ships were led by the manly, rakish Captain Kirk or the fierce, scholarly, and, yes, manly, Captain Picard, or even the firm but feminine Captain Janeway. These captains never forgot that they sat on top of the chain of command in an enterprise that, while exciting and exploratory, was also a military ship of the line with life-and-death consequences for bad decisions—and, for that reason, they always comported themselves with dignity when at the helm.

Then there’s Holly Hunter’s character. Hunter plays Nahla Ake, the chancellor of the Academy and captain of a ship. Her backstory is that she threw away her entire career because she sent a felony murderer to prison...a female felony murderer, which meant separating the woman from her child. “Separating children from their parents,” she says, “isn't exceptional,

I am very grateful to my dear departed mother, who had the wisdom to never substitute the television for raising me.

They are using women and “women” because nobody cares if men get beat up for being violent.

What television producers have done to people's minds is horrific.

instead want to use their warped maternal longings to scold and dominate the world?

I read a hypothesis that the women who murdered their children in utero are the ones most likely to want to use those maternal instincts and longings to protect illegal aliens, as they are just transferring those feelings.

YMMV, of course.

Romper Room was simultaneously subversive and early social engineering.

Where, pray tell, did the marijuana crowd get the term “doobie”? She looked in the Magic Mirror, the image swirled around and we were transported ‘elsewhere’ for a short time (hallucinogenics). All coincidentally 1960s era programming when children near-universally absorbed Saturday morning cartoons as a precursor to later escapism via recreational drug use.

Look at the three SCROTUM Justices who can’t define a woman who are only on the court because of THEIR GENITALS. All three want little mediocre, non-athletic boys to have the “Constipational Right” to participate against girls in sports. That’s why wimmins on the courts is a bad idea. Too many mental issues.
