“The whole mistake of the pro-abortion people from the start, he said to himself was the arbitrary line they drew. An embryo is not entitled to American Constitutional rights and can be killed, legally, by a doctor. But a fetus was a person, with rights, at least for a while; and then the pro-abortion crowd decided that even a seven-month fetus was not human and could be killed, legally, by a licensed doctor. And, one day, a newborn baby it is a vegetable; it cant focus its eyes, it understands nothing, nor talks the pro-abortion lobby argued in court, and won, with their contention that a newborn baby was only a fetus expelled by accident or organic processes from the womb. But, even then, where was the line to be drawn finally? When the baby smiled its first smile? When it spoke its first word or reached for its initial time for a toy it enjoyed? The legal line was relentlessly pushed back and back.”

How does one fashion a book of resistance, a book of truth in an empire of falsehood, or a book of rectitude in an empire of vicious lies? How does one do this right in front of the enemy?

There are a lot of issues discussed here, that are portrayed in that movie.
According to the above discussion, they were looking to identify “morons”, first. All for the love of the State.
If you see it coming, and you do nothing, are you not to blame for it, too, in your inaction?
Government: Demands that every school teaches evolution and natural selection.
Government: Demands that every tax payer pays out the nose to protect other people from their own stupidity and taking risks...
Seems to me that if they wanted “eugenics” they would simply end welfare and stop bailing people out of their own stupidity....
But I guess they need the dumb vote lever pullers to be at just the right amount of stupid to keep them in power...
Who needs who more? The farmer or the college philosophy professor?
I really don’t think whacking Obama voters and democrats is a good thing to do.
Nope, many are just ignorant, not stupid.
If this is the case, and it undoubtedly is the case, then the descriptor "intelligentsia" must assuredly be a misnomer, at best, and an outright fraud and lie, at worst...
