No doubt! The Left is actively trying to destroy Western civilization. My point is not that this isn’t happening. My point is that street interviews are an unreliable way of showing that.
Quick story. I have decades of experience teaching in urban public high schools. And about 15 years ago a ruling came down from our central administration: US History will no longer be a required course. It can be replaced by African History or World History.
Well, the history teachers were furious! But their protests fell on deaf ears. That ruling stands to this day.
Getting ready for “FLAMING” but I have said for years the easiest majors are Education and Journalism. They have gotten rid of history and civics because they are too hard and don’t suit the agenda. Of course all of STEM has been dumbed down
