John Dewey introduced and preached the idea of schoolteachers as change agents. I wonder if he ever dreamed how many other groups of creepy little people would try to earn that title.
Yes, they’re out there in the shadows, changing our world out from under us, accountable to no one.
I’m sure their master, Satan, is pleased with their progress so far.
One problem of instantaneous mass communications is that it serves to empower anyone whom uses it. It helps to spread the word of God, but it also helps to spread the word of the Antichrist, and everyone in between. Here’s the rub; many people believe whatever comes their way because if it’s coming to them via the news, via the school system, via Facebook, or via some other mass media, it must be worthy of attention. It doesn’t matter what the content is, many people just go along with it.
The most extreme example was Germany in the ‘30s and early ‘40s. A voice over the radio and quoted in newspapers sold the German people on following one leader just enough that he was able to plunge Europe into bedlam. In our era, the school system has been the conduit of propaganda and more recently Facebook has taken it to a new level. Here’s the rub, people are going along with this voluntarily. They don’t have to.
“But it was on the news–!” *sigh* Thank you, public schooling.
That’s the point entirely.
Keep on being a light and watchman Lee
