Friday’s “Youth Climate Strike” in America, which was supposed to feature gazillions of kids walking out of high school classes to “protest” Climbit Change Etc., mostly fizzled out; but it was a big Thing in Europe, and you can bet the house they’ll try again next year, if not sooner.
Meanwhile, we have 13-year-olds demanding “immediate action” by “our leaders,” enact the Green New Deal, ’cause “people are dying!” and the world’s gonna end in just 12 years unless Government is given absolute power over everything (https://www.ecowatch.com/youth-climate-strike-2627959531.html).
You know what scares me? These children have learned no civics at all, and precious little history. They literally do not know that our law, the Constitution, places strict limits on what any government can do. They do not know that there are limits; and because they have been terrified into believing that Doomsday really is just twelve years away, they are willing to accept a dictatorship that will be strong enough to “stop” Climate Change.
If that doesn’t scare you–well, buckaroo, it should. But it should also make you more than just a little bit irate. Those kids are ignorant and terrified because that’s how the teachers’ unions, the Democrat Party, and Hollywood want them–makes it easier, don’t you know, to manipulate them and get them to obey you. And the schools are doing it on your dime!
If these kids haven’t been set straight by the time they come of voting age–which, of course, Democrats want to lower to 16–there’s going to be the devil to pay.
There are people out there actively working to damage our country, doing it in plain sight with the active assistance and blessing of the Democrat Party. And they need to be stopped. Protect America while it’s still America.
These are the usual idiots that Lenin was so fond of. Unfortunately for them they are usually the first to go under the new regime.
They *always* think they’ll be the ones to decide who gets a date with the firing squad. And they always wind up getting it themselves. When will they ever learn?
usual=useful.
Either one works for me.
It’s because they know nothing but the lies they’ve been taught, in such preponderance that they have no room for the truth, that they are being recruited to carry the mantle of the globalist new world order, into the next generation of ‘leaders’. We can’t win this fight as long as we have public schools and the Dept of Education. If we don’t marginalize them before the UN Agendas are signed into law before the next Manchurian president (in 2024 not 2020 God willing), it’s all over. The Bible tells us about the 10 nations of the last days, which I believe comes about through the regionalization of countries, which the NWO has already accomplished in Europe, such that when they regionalize the West through the North American Union, again it will be over. It Is Written. I can only pray for the souls of those who have not yet accepted Jesus as their Savior…
Watchman says we’re always only one presidential election away from being turned into a socialist hell-hole. I’m afraid he’s right. We can never relax. One more Democrat government, and we’re done for.
I agree with both of you. And I agree with Watchman saying ‘they’ll be the first to go.” It will be like living in a solitary jail cell laughing at the justice that came too late for me. Irony.
Ronald Reagan said it before me, much more eloquently: “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, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.”
Richard Dreyfus has a site where he collects petition signatures to return Civics into the schools.
Doesn’t he realize that anyone who really understands civics will never be a liberal?
I think he’s a close conservative. 🙂
