We've got decades of brainwashed Americans (via the education system, media, and pop culture) who don't know the difference between liberty and tyranny, who no longer value free speech, who hold contempt for the Constitution, who don't know how to think critically, who know next to nothing about history, and who mindlessly support totalitarian ideas.
Carol Brown "We're two months out from the midterm elections, and the trend doesn't favor our team – in the Senate, the House, or governorships.
"Despite a roster of Democratic candidates promoting socialist ideas, a lot of Americans don't seem to find the line-up of loons particularly crazy. Many of these candidates are young, energetic, and charming, packaging socialism in a nice box with a neat little bow.
"Mmm. I'll take two, please.
"Here's one: Robert Francis O'Rourke. He adopted the nickname "Beto" to endear himself to the Hispanic community.
"O'Rourke appears to be a highly calculated melding of Robert Kennedy (wearing a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up partway) and Obama, who was brilliant at masking the evil in his heart with soaring rhetoric (to the numb and mindless).
"Now, as O'Rourke crisscrosses the country, scarfing up gobs of money from coastal elites, Real Clear Politics has moved the Texas Senate race from "leans Republican" to "likely Republican" to "toss up." It didn't take that long. At the rate it's going, I won't be surprised if it soon shifts to "likely Dem."
"Meanwhile, in a matter of days, socialist Andrew Gillum, who's running for governor of Florida, has eclipsed Ron DeSantis in the polls. Gillum now has a 5-point lead. I expect that it will climb even higher." . . .
While on the subject of ignorant youth:
This is a must-see film because the ravages of the Holocaust are barely taught in American schools anymore, if at all. . . .
"The new film Operation Finale is the story of the carefully calculated capture, trial, and execution of Adolf Eichmann, the "architect" of Hitler's final solution: the extermination of the Jews of Germany, Poland, France, the Baltics, Hungary, and what was then Czechoslovakia." . . .
"That is the lesson, still unlearned, of history. Until our schools, from kindergarten through university, begin again to teach the truth of history, ours and the history of every other nation, the lessons of history that have changed the world in profound and catastrophic ways will remain unlearned. People who believe they are educated but are not will continue to wreak havoc on civil societies." . . .
