Good article. This is true - the left in the 60s was always screaming, "the personal is the political," which seems to be a Communist mantra of some sort and forces every aspect of one's life to be measured against what the State - or the Great Leader - wants one to do.
Nobody thought a Stalin could ever arise here, but these media fools are setting the stage.
My late Dad spoke to me seriously about this very thing in the 50s when I was awakened to the horrors of the death camps and was asking him about them. I had seen some RKO newsreels at the movies, pretty grim, graphic stuff, some of you remember them: buldozers pushing huge mounds of bodies into a common grave, etc.
I owe him for opening my eyes even more. He was exempt in WW2 (married w/children) but he worked at a boatyard in Brownsville, TX as a carpenter building PT boats and minesweepers so he certainly did his part so he served also.
A man's man, no huggie, kissy kind of man, certainly no "metrosexual" but he taught us boys manners (or else) and how to treat women with respect (or else) and perhaps more importantly to study history. Thank you Dad...
