The damage of the sixties was started long before the sixties. It just came to a head because the damagers had taken over the schools and the media the decade before.

“The damage of the sixties was started long before the sixties. It just came to a head because the damagers had taken over the schools and the media the decade before.”

That much is pretty much true. Go back and look at the records, and you’ll see that it’s in the 1950s that a lot of previously strong Protestant schools began going secular—Andover and Exeter, many private universities, mandatory chapel services came to an end. Something was definitely amiss before the 60s hit.

The 60s definitely royally screwed us up, but there were some foul carrots in the brew long before.

“the schools and the media”

Yes!

Look at how the MSM grew during this time, and how many of that generation went to college and obtained degrees in universities that were staffed with leftists.

It’s the socialization process. It’s not the genes, and it wasnt just the music. The “counterculture” that was promoted attracted a lot of people who were looking to experiment and test boundaries.
