Re: Why and When? When did American Society become stupid and why did our society embrace so much hate?
By and large, I am convinced that we are seeing the original American values -- individualism, responsibility, Liberty, education, hard work and belief in God -- lose the culture war against the proponents of Progressivism, which favors government action, solutions and control, co-opts education and turns it into programming, bares the Government teat to those who'd rather suckle than work, and supplants belief in God with belief in Government. Progressive forces have been at work in America for over a hundred years. Theirs has been a long, patient fight against the values that made Western civilization great -- and they are now seeing the fruits of their labor as first-world countries slowly crumble to third-world status. Utopian collectivism is a pipe-dream, but its proponents will stop at nothing to destroy anything and everything good for mankind in their efforts to enable it because in their minds failures of Communism are because it hasn't ever been implemented correctly.
