From an interview over 30 years ago.

Thsee are comments about ideological subversion and demoralization. Perfectly describes the left in America.
quote:

As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore. A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his... then he will understand. But not before that. That's the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.
quote:

The result? The result you can see. Most of the people who graduated in the sixties (drop-outs or half-baked intellectuals) are now occupying the positions of power in the government, civil service, business, mass media, [and the] educational system. You are stuck with them. You cannot get rid of them. They are contaminated; they are programmed to think and react to certain stimuli in a certain pattern. You cannot change their mind[s], even if you expose them to authentic information, even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still cannot change the basic perception and the logic of behavior. In other words, these people... the process of demoralization is complete and irreversible. To [rid] society of these people, you need another twenty or fifteen years to educate a new generation of patriotically-minded and common sense people, who would be acting in favor and in the interests of United States society.

I have found that the main difference between modern liberals and modern republicans is that the liberals argue on the basis of morals while republicans argue on the basis of facts.

In other words, liberals argue on the basis of what should be (or rather what they believe should be), and republicans argue on the basis of what is, no matter how ugly it may sound.

yeah because the right in America right now is just chocked full of truthful people...I mean alternative facts have their place too...right. Trump never lies and Sarah Sanderson is the pinnacle of verity. We have Senators on the right making up shite about the FBI, bombshells I tell ya, just absolute bombshells.

Like SECSolomonGrundy said in another thread, it's "Objective truth vs ideological narrative."

You are a liar. Senators are not making up anything about the FBI. You people are disgusting, in favor of a police state.

Speaking of senators making up shite the one who is is mark warnerz who is spinning furiously to cover that arse to justify doing what he has been accusing everyone else of doing.

He is typical democrat scum.

This validates every postulation made by the comrade in the OP.

You deflected, then ad hominem, then said exactly what the Russian said you would.

How does it feel to be programmed and used?

The bottom paragraph provides the remedy. Ironically, I posted the below on 2/3 and had one reply.



Arena of Ideas-Private vs Public
Posted by Dick Leverage online on 2/3/18 at 2:27 pm
So, it seems a lot of folks are anticipating a true civil war, blood in the streets, mayhem, etc..

Meanwhile, we sit by allowing our youth to be indoctrinated by the State from Kindergarten through college. The left leaning colleges and school districts do it openly and with vigor. They teach white privilege concepts, anti-capitalism, multi-culturalism, anti-free speech, etc..The right leaning colleges and school districts do it by remaining silent in fear of PC repercussions. While they don't openly and vigorously teach Marxists idealogy, they are forced to neglect the promotion of American Exceptionalism.

So...it falls on the private sector to step up and combat this in the Arena of Ideas. What are any of us doing except arguing on a message board? What if you volunteer your time to have community discussion groups once a month with school aged and college aged kids in your community. Promote and discuss the important things that get omitted in the class room. Combat the State by teaching the things that the State won't teach.

Etc......

I think this answers SFP's question in his thread but I didn't think he wanted to go this deep into it. But it is the truth!

Damn, I mean the first Proggy reply proves the OP right.

I'm so glad I no longer vote with people like you. I was once part of the problem.
