Public education has been systematically dumbed down, removing academic standards and replacing them with "diversity" and other aspects of liberal ideology. It's OK if you can't spell or add, as long as you're doing something about global warming (which, BTW, may well not even exist, but don't tell anyone.)
The media would rather waste air time and column inches with celebrity gossip than actual news. Why do they think I'm supposed to care more about who some starlet is sleeping with than about the actions of my government? Is it because they are shallower than a kids' wading pool (yes) or because they know that uninformed people can more easily be brought to believe in their cause? (Also yes.)
Then there is Hollywood. The movies that make the largest profits are the G-rated movies, so Hollywood makes almost none of those and increases the number of Rs and NC-17s (the euphemism for X) every year. Either they can't get their little pea brains out of the gutter or they have an agenda that has little or nothing to do with maintaining standards or making money.
Then there are our noble public servants. These are the people who tax us to support deviant art, hand our money to lazy people who refuse to work and to foreign dictators, let terrorists move freely into our country, try to tkae away our self-defense, and do so many other things to protect us from ourselves.
That is why society is so dumb it sometimes can barely function.
I whole heartedly agree. I regularly substitute teach, and I have seen the "multiculturalism" and "diversity" commonly displayed throughout the textbooks. It's a shame. I've seen outright environmental lies, as well as lies about history. Check out my thread, "Multiculturalism Run Amuck in the Public Schools", for more info in this regard.

I also agree, though a bunch of the smut does bring in large amounts of money. We do have an awful lot of degenerate individuals in this country, much the result of a lack of parenting and the very movies they are watching.

It's totally beyond common sense, isn't it. I can't believe that they allow it to happen. My first guess is that they support deviant art because to fail to do so would be to receive the "wrath" of the Socialist press. They continue to hand out welfare because the press would villanize them as cold-hearted and "against the children". As far as illegal immigration, I can only sense votes and campaign contributions from big business as having something to do with it. However, I truly believe that there are individuals within our government who want to see the entire collapse of this country.
