[The Westerner]

True. How many years, decades actually, has Western Civ been cut from all college curriculums in the USA? That was the beginning of this anti-West movement.

Must admit I do not know when the major changes in the curricula took place. I first became aware of the effort to bias the approach to international affairs in High School, when I stumbled upon the WPA "Debate Handbook," in my school library. (A New Deal writers' project, for Leftwing writers in the Depression, it was heavily slanted towards Egalitarian/Collectivism (communism) and the pursuit of world government. It was a real wakeup call for this then (1951) young Conservative

Frankly the Conservative Debate Handbook is in large measure my response to that Leftist effort--and the thousands like it, over the years--although I believe my handbook may address more issues than the WPA propaganda.

The problem is that there has been a gargantuan dumbing down of the verbal arts in the West over the past century+, and this is especially evident in education. Those planning curricula are not all into deliberately betraying the West, but many are basically stupid, and easily misled. It was ever thus in the history of skulduggery & evil promotions. All of which makes our duty to fight back all the clearer.
