I’ve watched some vids of libertarian Kaitlyn Bennett interviewing college students. The mindless regurgitation of propaganda has to be witnessed, to be believed. These people are not getting their scripts from their parents.

Peter Boghossian is an atheist who thinks religious people are delusional.
I have impossible conversations with indoctrinated fools every day, so I will have to read his book, in case there’s some useful technique in there. :(

I’ve heard how I’m “cisgender”, and this has colored my view of the world. Apparently being “cisgender” can cause one to be “homophobic” and bigoted against the “transgendered” or “LGBT” peoples, whatever flavor any given “LGBT” person favors.

I need to go to re-education camp, because I have no clue about what the 50+ gender identities are nowadays. I know about men and women, and “gay”, but I’ve only scratched the surface with such descriptions, so off to the camp I will go someday.

Even though washing brains has fallen out of favor, you can always launder the ideas going into the brains.

University course descriptions are loaded with linguistic gobbledygook . They love to write like that because it makes them think they are sophisticated and smarter than the commoners that pony up big bucks to hear them bloviate.
