How to stop the leftist take-over of our youth

[bodecea]

Yes, and that‘s why college should have different viewpoints allowed - not only leftist ones. You people sure get your feathers ruffled by the suggestion that college shouldn’t be bastion of liberal-think.

Where do you get your 90%, 90+%, 95% figure?

 

[bodecea]

Facts can be manipulated to fit an ideology.

We see that with MAGAts all the time.

 

[bodecea]

Yeah, but you’re 80 years old. I’m talking about the liberal indoctrination going on NOW.

Where do you get your 90+% figure?

Anyone who oppresses is not to be trusted or forgiven. Unless there are amends from the same. The only to trust from us are families and people we know and others who do for us.

The political indoctrination of our youth at the college level is the Left’s way of ensuring their “transformation” of America continues, first via their votes and then, within 10 or 15 years, their election to political office. Here’s how to stop it:

1. Keep Affirmative Action, but change the diversity goal: When you have 30 professors in the Sociology Department, all of whom are leftists, and 95% of professors throughout the college leftists, you have no diversity of thought. The goal should be 30% Democrat, 30% Republican, and 40% Independent.

2, Get rid of all “grievance” programs and classes: No more Black Studies majors, Women’s Studies majors, “the problem with whiteness” classes, etc.

This is nothing new.Former Liberal { his parents were registered
Communist Party } David Horowitz a 60's radical who transformed
into a diehard crusader in explaining how the Radical 60's
were the breeding ground for today's realities.The founder of
David Horowitz Freedom Center he regularly tries to inspire
Conservatism on college campuses.Not a piece of cake.
Horowitz once described himself as " the most hated ex-radical
of my generation. "
" We are all products of our environment,and most
of us absorb our politics from our families and communities.
Once set,these affiliations rarely change. "

The conservatives here continue screaming "I NEVER WENT TO COLLEGE!".

The kids are just taking classes. The classes don't discuss politics. That's reality. I can't remember ever having a political discussion in a college class.

Yes, there's stuff outside of class, and conservatives are free to push their views there. Thing is, they're competing on a level playing field, therefore conservatives can't compete. Their ideology is dogshit, and everyone sees it. If the nutty conservative American MSM isn't around to push conservatism, conservatives are helpless.

College reflects the culture, it doesn't drive it.

And no, this conservative whining isn't new. They've been saying the same things for at least 60 years.

1. You problem isn't Left and Right but Reality v Fiction... You state you want professors to be more right when actually they are just telling you the facts... You don't like the facts and therefore decry them as Left Wing...

2. IF you don't learn from History you are doomed to repeat it... These are educational programs that explain why we are the way we are today...
For Example:

• Why do the Black people live in poor areas together? Explain that...
• How has some European Countries taken different approaches (some haven't and look at their results too)?
• How has that changed their society from ours?

This is very current and can tell you how modern town & social planning is influenced today.

In Europe we are amazed how little US students (ones described as liberals) know about how town / Social planning is used to shape our society...
One of the most common is 'social/affordable housing'... This is where the government buys houses in middle class estates and rents them out to poorer people (looking for a home). This integrates society more, it gets people see other people as humans... It takes ages to explain it but it definitely works and the Nordies have been at it for decades...

That wouldn't be enough. It's the realities of living under end-stage, imperialist capitalism that is making young people socialist, not just what you've mentioned. You're out of touch with reality if you think what you've proposed would make someone reject socialism and embrace capitalism, under these conditions.

If we were living in the 1950s and 60s, after WW2, when America was the manufacturing hub of the world, with 1/3rd of its workforce unionized and one could actually live the American Dream, fully awake, without being asleep (we have to be asleep today to experience the "American Dream"). Owning a home (paying for it cash as my immigrant maternal grandfather did, after four years of working a blue-collar job and arriving from Cuba with a few cents in his pocket), supporting a family with one paycheck, and retiring after 20 years with a pension. Education was affordable, and practically tuition-free in public colleges. Healthcare was more affordable and accessible.

If we had all of that today, as you had when you were a young man (the America you were raised in), then maybe you could persuade these young Millennials and Zoomers to reject socialism and embrace capitalism. The aristocracy of the world's labor, the American working class, was gutted and brutalized in the 1980s by supply-side, trickle-down Reaganomics. Our manufacturing base was dismantled, piece by piece, and handed to Asia and Latin America. The so-called "trickle-down" doesn't trickle. The elderly right-wingers on this forum, refuse to recognize that, yet continue under this delusion, capitalism is going to survive and even thrive, under these conditions. Without at least a little bit of socialism, you can forget it. Capitalism is dead (the right-wingers killed it).

​

Now with the advent of advanced automation and artificial intelligence, the situation is going to be even worse for capitalism. We're right on the edge now of transitioning production to a fully computerized-centrally planned economy / non-profit system, due to advanced, intelligent automation. That's the natural end or death of capitalism and the beginning of the socialist age. You can deny it but think rationally if you can and maybe you'll understand the reality of the situation. Why should our sons and daughters, continue with capitalism, when it's unnecessary and obsolete?

Of course you are, or you wouldn’t be pulling all the Dem tactice: deflection, attacking the messenger, and outright denial.

It’s not a lying website. One article out of thousands apparently had false information. Nowhere near as bad as the lying liberal media.

So, back to the question, for the third and last time: Given that instructors at colleges are almost exclusively leftist, with a small minority of exceptions (probably in the engineering department), shouldn’t we aim for more diversity of thought and actively seek to bring in more conservative professors?

NO. Your ideas suck. Go bake a cake, magaturd.

What did you disagree with in my post? Be specific.

 

[ralfy]

It's pointless as leftists are actually neolibs and rightists neocons, and both work with each other.
