While the USA was being changed by programming the minds of our youth no one was even aware of it! Specifically the movie industry was (and is) making movies that swayed our young people to a lifestyle that appealed to their desire for something satisfying in their desire to grow up and live in a way that was either exciting or satisfying or both. I know this at least was true in my case. Now that I am old I have a huge range of hind site and can see this in the big picture whereas as a young person the days go by slowly and the absorption (into our lives) of the ideas and lifestyles the movies portray are not noticed. Has anyone else noticed of this?

History is what you have lived. All the youth know is global warming and racism.....................

It wasn’t the movies, as much as the public schools....

Parent sent their little darlings off to be indoctrinated 6-8 hours every day for years...

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

No offense, but if you're wondering where "our protectors" were, then YOU are part of the problem.

Your "protector" is looking back at you every time you look in a mirror.

If the entertainment industry and the public education system programmed the minds of your kids, it only happened because you let them.

I’ve been sounding the alarm for 30+ years, when I realized I was contributing to the problems by buying into the garbage they were pushing. People thought I was a reactionary who needlessly over dramatized my concerns. The best way to defeat your adversary is to infiltrate their society and change the thinking and behavior of their youth.

It was both, each reinforced each other.

No, Hollywood can only make shows, they can’t force you to watch them....

And even if you do its a few hours a day.

Meanwhile, you send your kids off for 30-40 hours a week to be indoctrinated by the Public Schools...

Where they teach kids critical theory and not how to critically think

Well let’s agree that we disagree. Because the reality is that the TV & movie industries reach millions per day. Thus they are able to reinforce what they are being taught in schools.

We are going to disagree.

TV and Movies can’t make you regurgitate what you watch, under penalty of failure.....

They are entertainment not education.

The public schools are indoctrination centers, one that former soviets would be most proud of

Bears repeating.

...and nothing, I mean NOTHING is more important than getting them to school safe and on time, day in, day out, year after year, etc. etc.

They were plenty of warning voices but not enough listeners.

In the majority of cases they are neither, however, they wield a lot of power & influence. Don't kid yourself. They can mold the youth, and sadly even many adults. You & I may not be as affected by them, but trust me there are plenty who are. They had a monopoly in news for decades upon decades, and people trusted that they were being told the truth. Do you think they didn't sway things over those many decades? Think again, because they most certainly did.

But I'm all for us disagreeing. 8>)

We were TOO BUSY trying to keep up with the Jones’, and it’s not easy. Seriously, what could be more important than that boat, or that pickup truck that we take every day to work (and to Home Depot once a month)? Keeping our kids away from the monsters who run the public schools? OH PLEASE, SPARE ME! As long as they take our kids for the day and bring them back in one piece, who cares what goes on in there?

Why do you ask?

(do I really need to note the sarcasm dripping off my post)

Some of us saw it happening 25 years ago, but if we mentioned it we were “tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists”. “You are crazy! never happen in this country!”.

Well it did... And it’s because nobody listened to the very wise warnings and predictions. Now it might be impossible to get it back.
