There is another video on
tolerance being shipped to a school near you. I wonder why all of a sudden, in the wake of the movement to recognize gay relationships via the institution of marriage, we are seeing all this material promoting "diversity." There is no crisis of hate right now in the United States. So what is all this about?
Speaking about the video, a senior officer at the anti-defamation league, distributors of the video, said, "We know at ADL that people are not born as little haters, we learn to hate. And just as we learn to hate, we have to unlearn to hate." That's right, children aren't born as "haters!" It is the fault of all us evil heterosexual parents. That's why I had to explain to my, then 5 year-old, child how not every kid is skinny or blond or blue-eyed or even white skinned after her first day of school. The truth is kids are suspicious of anything that isn't exactly like themselves and their family. Kids are instinctively suspicious of any new circumstances. In other words, kids are born prejudiced and well they should be.
The term prejudice has been corrupted to now mean "An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts" or "a partiality that prevents objective consideration of an issue or situation." But where did these negative connotations come from? they are part of the corruption of words and indoctrination of the left.
The truth is that prejudice really means to pre-judge, or put another way, to judge something before all the facts are known. Prejudice can be a good thing like when one decides not to swim in that funky smelling water because one suspects it might be polluted. Later one discovers that the funky smell is indicative of a healthy body of water and this particular body is not polluted. Prejudice or pre-judging often saves your life. The corruption of the term is a deliberate attempt to create an "open" and "accepting" generation of youth just as several previous generations were indoctrinated in socialist ideas.
I can recall as a youth being indoctrinated with a number of notions which I now know to be false. During the Vietnam War, the notion put forth by my teachers was that everyone was against the war except the politicians and big business interests that benefit from selling to the military. Everyone else is against it, they said. I can also recall being repeatedly fed the idea that there is no fundamental ideological difference between the political parties. The "common wisdom" went there are differences between candidates but no difference between the parties. If you think Richard Nixon is a liar, you vote against him. If you think Ford is not very bright, you vote against him. Interesting choices, huh? How about if you believe Democrats advocate entitlements, vote for their candidates and if you don't, don't? No, those words were never spoken. Another "common idea" often indoctrinated was, "of course everyone, except a few special interests is for "protecting the environment." We all want to live in a clean world. The thought that maybe the enviro-whackos were full of it was never spoken.
That is how indoctrination works. It isn't violent mind control where one is forced to watch videos thousands of times to drive a point deep within the brain. No, it works as a suggestion offered softly by a teacher once each day for 12-20 years and then supported by the liberal media institutions. Let's advocate all the good wholesome things like acceptance and diversity. After all, we are all different.
The truth is that liberal/progressive ideologues have control over our educational institutions. While politicians are interested in winning the next election, ideologues are interested in changing the landscape on a long-term basis. They indoctrinate our youth much the way the communists indoctrinated their children. The Nazis did similar things often encouraging the children to rat out their parents for holding ideas incongruous with the ideology of the system. Liberals know how powerful indoctrination can be. They created several generations of folks who believed the whole liberal platform was what "thinking people" thought.
The liberal indoctrination of the nation's youth involved the telling of huge lies. The current indoctrination in favor of gay rights is another huge lie. If we stay vigilant and call their bluff at every turn, we can put a stop to this. These are not strong people. We must keep our eyes on the larger prize and put down this liberal indoctrination now. It is my prejudice that our society
cannot tolerate another generation indoctrinated in lies.
