Logical conclusions require active thought to reach. the 1963 Communist goals dod wonders for helping to install teachers into academia that were opposed to logic cources, precicely because they wanted to raise a population that did not think too far ahead.
Because if one is allowed...yes, ‘allowed’ to think things through, they come to non liberal conclusions about a lot of things. So people stopped receiving an education that would give them the tools to question, assess and logically evaluate scenarios.
All of this played out in the open. People that tried stopping it were maimed in the press as whack jobs and bible thumping fanatics who hated science and ‘wanted to keep people stupid’.
Project much? Yea, they did. and by the time anyone made any headway, they were entrenched and the population auditioning for Aristocracy.
“So people stopped receiving an education that would give them the tools to question, assess and logically evaluate scenarios.”
Absolutely; it is no accident that Mexico’s president today has to battle with their teachers’ unions to try to move his country ahead. We are saddled with the same party organs, and they own the Democratic Party.
