If you’ve been paying attention to some of the brighter lights in conservative media, you might have noticed an absolutely excellent point being made.
Tucker Carlson made it. At the Federalist, so did John Daniel Davidson. There have been others.
The point is this: the academic and institutional Left in America and elsewhere in the West spent a whole lot of time over the past two decades attempting to school the backward Afghans as to modern woke attitudes, and that greatly hurt the mission of supporting a non-terrorist government there.
At the end of the day, Afghanistan fell to the Taliban because, faced with a choice between 7th century barbarians and 21st century woke leftists, the Afghans chose the former.

Cave men had better values than the Woke zombies.
Pre-Rationalism is more rational than post-Rationalism.
The Rainbow flag didn’t help.
WTF? Sustainable development? Teaching that to stone age tribesmen? Whoever had that bright idea should be caned, then canned!
13 Climate ... ?
“the West spent a whole lot of time over the past two decades attempting to school the backward Afghans as to modern woke attitudes”
At some point, we tried to impose the Frankfurt School at the point of a gun. It didn’t take.

The month of June is recognized as (LGBTI) Pride Month. The United States respects the dignity & equality of LGBTI people & celebrates their contributions to the society. We remain committed to supporting civil rights of minorities, including LGBTI persons. #Pride2021 #PrideMonth
I'm sure the Taliban will remain respectful of "gay rights."
I don’t blame them. The whole gay trans thing is revolting.
Notice the United Nations “Sustainable Development Goals” graffiti (in English) polluting the wall in that picture. LOL
“Sustainable development?”
Expand the poppy fields?
Omg. “Sustainable Development Goals.” What a disconnect. We have 20-something woke idiots running things.
The MSM has been jamming down our throats as “normal” views held by a minority. And them shaming us if we don’t go along with them
When they tried that nonsense in Afgahnistan, we saw how a militant opposition would react.
They left the Rainbow flag behind. The first homosexual the Taliban throw off the radio tower will be wrapped in the Rainbow flag.
Maybe they’ll be more ambitious and cut it up for pride ribbons that hundreds can wear on their way?
That's the point. Even stone age tribesmen have enough cultural and moral development to recognize Leftist tainted poop and reject it out of hand. . .but not enough to recognize the notion of universal endowed rights from the Creator which they also reject out of hand. Unfortunately, our government and the UN only promote the tainted poop "sustainable goals."
It's time to move on to "wake", as in wake up.
