"The commies took over the education system of this country in the 60’s."

It started in the colleges so they could brainwash the teachers who would then be able to instill communist beliefs in young heads full of mush.

Yep. I had a HS English teacher in 1970, right out of college, as far left as she could be......................

Yup. I estimate the tipping point will be within the next decade. As it is the country is becoming socially liberal so quickly that I really have to wonder if a guy like Mike Pence will be electorally viable in 2024.

Young people are easily fooled by the promises of “free” stuff because of the liberals running el/hi schools and universities have “taught them well”.

Think about it, they were raised on WIC, Food Stamps, EBT, SNAP, Section 8 and HUD Housing, Medicaid and 'free' College loans.

They have been indoctrinated from the womb.....................

I graduated from high school in 1965. Thankfully we didn’t have any of those buggers. Many of my teachers had served in WWII or the Korean War. I didn’t start taking any college courses until I was in my 30’s. I was far too old for any professors to impart their liberal ways on me. My two sons, born in 1966 and 1971 were exposed to the creeps. We don’t talk politics for a reason, and thankfully I don’t have any grandchildren to worry about. It’s amazing how quickly liberalism/socialism took over the college campuses, and seeped down into this country’s grammar and high school educational systems. They were allowed to do it unimpeded.

Marxism is not new, it is the age old evil in a new cloak.

Marxism = Satanism

For all its downsides, capitalism has given us a world of $4 antibiotics and 24/7 groceries, access in the blink of an eye to more entertainment than one could ever consume in a thousand lifetimes, every kind of food combination imaginable at hip restaurants, a different way to cloth ourselves several times a day, the ability to travel and instantly share photoso and video of adventures with millions of people around the world, and the list goes on. Today’s millennials have lifestyles that would make the kings and queens of even 50 years ago jealous, but they’ve been taught envy rather than grace, so they fail to appreciate any of it.

And, contrary to the idea that no ones care about the poor, not only is there welfare and medicaid, but there are also lots of charities and free clinics. No, they’re not always the most convenient things to utilize, but they are there.

Oh, and many millennials love to whine about the difficulty of home ownership while simultaneously supporting people who don’t even believe in the concept of private property. Funny that.

I should also add that while to a certain extent I excuse the most recently indoctrinated, the reality is that a lot of millennials are now in their 30s. If one hasn’t done enough of his own research by that age (especially in today’s world with access to everything in a few keystrokes), or worse has done it and still supports the destruction of the west, then there is no excuse.
