You know, I was going to disagree with you because of the consistent cuts to public education funding, but I could also see a reality where the lack of government-provided propaganda in classrooms could significantly reduce the Red Scare influence in the youth.
When I was a kid I was told communism was bad, learning about it in school we were taught the red scare was bad because they became witch trials, not because of any of the other rational reasons.
It still holds today though, the first time a friend of mine told me he was a communist I laughed at him, it seemed so absurd to hear at the time. Then a month ago I told a new friend of mine I was a communist and he also gave the same reaction. It’s interesting to see how a few conversations can open you up to an entirely different ideology. Before I was introduced to communism, it felt taboo. I thought it was a cult of ideology from a not-so-distant past, ending with the USSR as an example on how it would never work.
I see where you are coming from. I actually don’t know if Gen Alpha will get any better there is always hope that China will make it happen.
I was told the same thing about Communism. I was scared at first when I started becoming politically communist. It took time for my brain to come to terms that I was a communist.
If Gen Z is like this. I can’t wait for Gen Alpha. Truly the world is healing.
