What the Left Tells Young Americans
National Review ^ | Oct. 29, 2019 | Dennis Prager

Posted on 10/29/2019 10:31:08 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Here are some of the messages the Left has been giving America’s young people:

---- Your past is terrible, and your future is terrible.

The American past is a story of genocide, slavery, racism, patriarchy, and colonialism. You should be ashamed of it.

As regards your future, your very existence is in jeopardy. You may well die at a young age unless society completely shifts from fossil fuels to wind and solar power. In fact, your future is so bleak you should probably not consider getting married and having children.

---- If you are a girl, you should know that American society has contempt for you. You will be paid less than a man for the exact same work and exact same number of hours of work. You will have between a 1 in 4 and 1 in 3 chance of being sexually assaulted if you attend college. There is a glass ceiling that will prevent you from professional success. And professional success, not marriage and family, is what you should concentrate on.

That none of the above is true is irrelevant to the Left. What is relevant to the Left is that these messages make young women into leftists — because they make them angry (virtually all leftists are angry), sad (there are happy liberals and happy conservatives but very few happy leftists), and lonely (singles are overwhelmingly on the left).

The important thing is the teachers and professors make sure that no one comes to a school or college with a different point of view. So students get their full uncontested 22 years of growing up without a conservative voice except maybe for a parent.

This put a question in my noggin so I went over to the google machine and asked it. The answer: “Major increase in teen suicide rate is more than other age groups, new report says” Paraphrasing someone else: “The only thing we have to fear is the Rats themselves.”

De-Google your life. Google is your enemy. I like DuckDuckGo, but there are plenty of others.

Oh yeah, my 20 year old is the victim of our education system and those ideas are what he believe’s indeed. He says i am dumb for believing in such a fairy-tale as God. He listens to the last pod cast on the left, not sure if you’ve ever listened to that, but i’ve never heard anything but a negative take on anything they have a take on. Yes i know they talk about serial killers and stuff, but they constantly trash Jesus, Christians, and America. Garbage in, Garbage out..

“Google is your enemy.”

Excellent point. And Google is everywhere, not just a search engine. In every Android device, in most “cloud” apps, even our kids (public) school records are in the care of this evil enterprise.
