I saw a few vids a few weeks ago that prompted me to start this thread. When I have time, I’ll post some of her vids on her experiences studying literature in Ivy League schools. It reminded me of my own experience in “social studies,” as I love history. In our common experience of INDOCTRINATION, we realized the curriculum avoids source material. In its place were a critique or summary of the source material.
I don’t know how many of you were made aware of the errors of scribes over the centuries. One example I was taught was the depiction of a flower. Scribes kept making copies of copies so that over centuries the flower drawn by scribes bore little resemblance to the flower one could observe by going to the source in nature.
In my Civics class, I was looking forward to studying America’s founding documents in an academic setting. I loved my teacher, an old man who retired at the end of my Freshman year. We didn’t and when I asked him about it, he glossed over it being “too difficult” for us to get into. Fast forward a generation, my stepdaughter‘s textbook explained the Progressive era “focused on improving the lives of the common people.” White washed so no rational person could oppose their agenda, it side stepped their means is to subvert our Constitutional federal republic of reserving all non-enumerated powers to the States.
One can understand the political motivation to indoctrinate the next generation to embrace Progressive ideology by default. However, literature? To make the connection, one must grasp how deep the Cultural Marxist rabbit hole of totalitarianism goes.
The author of the vids said the critique or summary of the source materials re-interpreted literature of the past in modern Cultural Marxist terms. Any female author of the past, including George Elliot, wrote of feminist ideas or overcoming oppression of minority groups - even when no fair interpretation of the source material can support such a conclusion. Indeed, the author read some of the books over the summer to be covered in Ivy League classes and when she wrote papers on her source material knowledge, that didn’t parrot Cultural Marxist talking points, she got a bad grade!
The Ivy League professors where emphatic, she must base her writing assignments on the Cultural Marxist critique or summary of the source material. This brave woman quit Ivy League school, realizing the bastion of falsehood it became. Anyone have similar experiences?
