   They’re kids, they don’t know any better. What’s the real President’s excuse?

   Is there even a whiff of doubt that leftist indoctrination has taken place here? These are like third graders. I’ve worked with third graders.

   In general, they can’t read well. Basic math skills? Puhlease! Can’t spell and completely clueless about grammar. Don’t know a thing about history (except for a few bits tainted by leftist propaganda). I once brought Martin Luther King up to a third grade class of about 25 and after talking about 5 minutes realized not one had any idea who MLK was. I stopped and asked and the best guess was, “He freed the slaves”.

   But here we can see someone has obviously spent valuable and limited classroom time talking about the man - the greedy man and how all our problems would be solved if it weren’t for the greedy rich and those economic Uncle Toms suffering from false consciousness. Can’t we all just put partisanship behind us and do what the f#*% our leftist betters tell us to do? /sarc. Child abuse.

   It was no different when I was in school in the US 40 years ago …

   Kids are dumb.

   When I was 10 or so I volunteered to do a little speech on global warming (well ahead of my time), and donated the most money to ‘buy a piece of rainforest’.

   I also remember taking (at the same age) a troupe of the kids to see the headmaster to complain about the quality of the school meals after our teacher had preached to us the virtues of democracy. She later had a talk to me.

   On national day I changed the words to the song to make them even more inane than the real words. Not much consistency here. Arguably I could have been classified as a liberal democract

   Anyway, look at me now, wishing for a world where I can buy bullets with my heroin at Asda, and that V was a real person and not just an Alan Moore character.

   The moral is….maybe..don’t slip whisky into the school bus driver’s slurpy just yet.

   Kids are dumb.

   Scary.As the Jesuits supposedly used to say:”Give me a child for for his first seven years and I’ll give you the man”.
   Probably the most successful part of the lefts ‘long march’ has been to gain control of childrens education. Most totalitarian parties seem to have youth movements like the Komsomol or Hitler youth.

   Of course these children have been brainwashed with collectivism - a process that occurs in many private schools (as well as, of course, government schools).

   But please not the word “ask”.

   Even the teachers do not bluntly teach the children that “the rich” (i.e. anyone the government dislikes - regardless of their income) should be TOLD to hand over what is left of their money to the government (to be given to officials and friends of the government - some of them poor and some of them wealthy) and murdered if they resist.

   On the contrary, the teachers use such terms as “ask” - as if it was all about voluntary shareing (not force and fear).

   Do even the teachers have some sense of shame?

   Yes “Terra Nova” sounds like typical Hollywood shit.

   Well made (the technical staff know their jobs) - but with a script and characters that are just leftist propaganda.

   However, Hollywood does not stand alone.

   It reflects the attitudes of the universities and the rest of the cultural elite - who try and package their (false and evil) ideas in a way (via entertainment shows) that will appeal to “the masses”.

   This world is in deep (very deep) trouble - as shows like Terra Nova make clear, but not in the way they try to present.
