"Tocquevilleans believe that functionaries like teachers and police officers represent legitimate authority..."

"...Government schools are cesspools of barbarian propaganda..."

We've got a little cognitive dissonance going here...;^)

re:"The Transformers are Cultural Barbarians, completely lacking in civility and honor. They advocate for: coarse and profane language, savage cruelty to the unborn, primitive submission to perverse sexual indulgence, primitive character assassination of the founding fathers and their contemporary cohort, brutal verbal attacks on their opponents, total pagan reliance on lies, half-truths and superstitions, and treasonous usurpation of the Constitution and all founding documents."

B²!

[Lorianne]

I give it a B+

He glosses over a lot such as:

___ that History is rarely objective. Choosing your history to conform to your ideology is dangerous no matter which ideology is yours.

___ that the "traditions" of the past have included some pretty horrific things (see above on history). It is WRONG and IMMORAL to paint the past and past "traditions" as absolutely better than what we can aspire to. We should learn from the past, not slavishly imitate it.

"If we Transmitters are going to take America back, we are going to have to risk humiliation and discomfort, ..."

Will never happen. The spirit has gone from We the People, as dronish democracy and self-indulgence have become the rule of the day.

Take a look around FR, for instance. Read carefully what the majority of the posters write. They are already transformed, and accuse many of us who dare to disagree with them of backward thinking, being anti-progress, anti-development, anti-capitalist or even Libertatian. They marginalize, demonize and berate our arguments because they know in their heart of hearts they cannot refute the logic of our arguments.

We may be able to act for the benefit of our children, but we are too few and too scattered to reverse the change which we have allowed to come upon our society. Death knocks at the door of the culture of the West as a whole and the Gramscians are all but too happy to open that door.
