Raising The BAR
Accuracy in Academia ^ | July 14, 2017 | Malcolm A. Kline

Liz Matory is living proof that you can overcome a lifetime of Left-wing indoctrination.

"Sidwell hid me from the 'real world' in many ways, but I love Sidwell Friends," the once and future congressional candidate writes of that Washington, D. C. institution in her autobiographical first book, Born Again Republican. "We had environmental science as a mandatory class in middle school."

"We studied Latin American History a year before we studied U. S. History. I think our school had one of the earliest Chinese language classes in the region, which was phenomenal."

"Diversity Club was routine and the Investment Club was a novelty. One of my white friends was even elected president of the Black Student Union."

Nevertheless, when her political outlook changed just a bit later in life, she truly left her childhood behind. "Apart from September 11th, I’ve never been so afraid in my life than being a new Republican," she writes in BAR. "I suppose I should feel lucky that I have lived a rather safe life, but I think I'm getting to know what hate feels like and now it's coming directly from classmates and people who I thought were friends."

Nonetheless, she recalls, when she switched political parties, "There was so much connectivity that it felt like as a Republican I was more American than ever before."

"I remember the first time I saw the American flag at a meeting and we pledged it. I've never seen a flag at a Democrat meeting." And she'd been to many.

>>Sidwell hid me from the 'real world' in many ways
 
Interesting how the objective of Cultural Marxism is achieved with efficacy regardless of whether the break with reality is manufactured by popular hedonism or by religious dogmatism...
 
psy·cho·sis
sīˈkōsəs/
noun
  1. a severe mental disorder in which thought and emotions are so impaired that contact is lost with external reality.
"According to my opinion, and the opinions of many defectors of my caliber, only about 15% of time, money, and manpower is spent on espionage as such. The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion, active measures, or psychological warfare. What it basically means is: to change the perception of reality of every American that despite of the abundance of information no one is able to come to sensible conclusions in the interest of defending themselves, their families, their community, and their country.
 
It's a great brainwashing process which goes very slow and is divided into four basic stages.
 
The first stage being "demoralization". It takes from 15 to 20 years to demoralize a nation. Why that many years? Because this is the minimum number of years required to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy exposed to the ideology of [their] enemy. In other words, Marxism-Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generation of American students without being challenged or counterbalanced by the basic values of Americanism; American patriotism.
 
Most of the activity of the department [KGB] was to compile huge amount / volume of information, on individuals who were instrumental in creating public opinion.  Publisher, editors, journalists, uh actors, educationalists, professors of political science.  Members of parliament, representatives of business circles. 
 
Most of these people were divided roughly into two groups:  those who would tow the Soviet foreign policy, they would be promoted to positions of power through media and public manipulation;  [and] those who refuse the Soviet influence in their own country would be character assassinated OR executed physically, come Revolution.  "
--KGB Defector Yuri Bezmenov
--Soviet Subversion of the Free Press (Ideological subversion, Destabilization, CRISIS - and the KGB)
 
 
Let us begin the restoration of sanity, with a simple lesson in Human biology...

XX + XX = FAIL

XY + XY = FAIL

XX + XY = Human

Sidwell is Chelsae Clinton’s alma mater. That explains a lot.

SF, diverse? In color and ethnicity, maybe, but not in culture! Bet there were darned few REAL people (non-elites) there!

If diversity is so good for Deplorables and Bitter Clingers why is it not also good for the left-wing media and the liberal schools and colleges?
