Re: College students as adults

Merriweather Lewis, the great explorer, at the time of his father’s death took full charge of his family’s 20,000 acre plantation. In his day, graduating college students ( especially those in graduate school) would be considered middle aged.

It’s part of the Marxist plan to destroy the United States. Infantilize young adults for as long as possible.

At least in 2016, the human brain is not full developed until one’s mid-20s. The last part to develop is that which is involved in judgment and responsibility—a truly adult quality. Thus the 18-year-old vote was and is a mistake.

The ability to exercise adult judgment and responsibility of course requires training. If universities are characterized by “safe spaces” and concern for “triggering”, “microaggession” and political correctness, it’s VERY hard to experience this training.

That’s why some students in their early 20s who are “SJWs” act extremely infantilized—even acting out like a typical 6-month-old baby!!!! I’m sure that you’ve seen videos of this behavior, which are difficult for me to watch.

When we can finally return to an economy in which graduating American seniors can expect to find decent jobs, and when they are expected to fulfill responsible roles in society, I imagine that this type of pathological behavior will end very fast!!!!
