Today’s worst insults and most indicting criticisms: It’s old fashioned; it’s not modern; it’s archaic; it’s outdated; it’s so yesterday. Many mistakenly believe that any idea not sufficiently progressive is automatically false and wrong. But what if some old ideas are actually true and right? Learn to judge the value of an idea regardless of its vintage. And talking of older ideas with tremendous value, let’s teach our children to court rather than date. Why the emotional roller-coaster of teenage and young adult dating does such a good job preparing for divorce. Why do progressives always paint the past in dark colors? School children are indoctrinated to believe that everything done by Americans yesterday was evil. Did Americans really do nothing more than kill Indians and enslave blacks? Progressives believe that society needs them to make tomorrow bright and redeem us from our horrid past. History lessons are no more than exercises in self-flagellation in order to propagandize children to the idea they need progressive ideas and progressive politicians to seek good.
