What happened to American universities since the early 1970s
has finally reverberated around the world, like a wave created by a small stone
thrown on a placid lake. It has now become a tsunami of #resist anarchists and drones around the western world. They are
now resisting authority, law and
order, and the capitalist system that had made their parents successful in the
first place. Marching under the banner of feminism and equality, asking to be
Muslims, and promoting the subjugation of women in western societies, violent millennials
are bullying anybody who is a Christian and a nationalist.
Campuses have become bastions of leftism and
anti-Americanism. According to David Horowitz, the schools of education are now
training teachers for social justice in every major. “An entire series of texts designed for
teacher instruction and published by Columbia Teachers College is devoted to ‘teaching
social justice’ in mathematics and other unlikely subjects. Its editor is Obama
collaborator and unrepentant terrorist William Ayers.” (David Horowitz, “Big
Agenda,” p. 117)
Even in former Soviet-bloc countries the curriculum at all
levels has been diluted by inconsequential studies that add nothing to
scholarship or knowledge: ethnic studies, women’s studies, islamophobia
studies, intersectionality, mixing biology, sex, religion, age, caste,
nationality, race, and other bizarre criteria as systems of domination,
discrimination, and oppression – all because the left finds social inequality
and injustice everywhere.
Universities are no longer places of scholarship, invention,
discovery, divergent opinions, peaceful discussion, but places of miseducation,
indoctrination, and brainwashing. What these academics have achieved in a few
decades, the totalitarian communists could only dream of. Inadequate graduates,
who should have never been admitted to college in the first place, are now
vessels of little knowledge who were told ad nauseam what to think, not how to
think.
Radicals have crawled from the underground, spurred on by
eight years of a radical American president who stoked the culture and racial
wars non-stop, bringing America and its economy to its knees. The rest of the world
watched in horror and disbelief the fall of the once great nation while dealing
with their own problems brought on by a planned refugee invasion of Europe of millions
of unvetted refugees from Middle-Eastern and African countries that harbor
camps of Islamists fighting a holy war against Christianity.
Angela Merkel of Germany has managed to destroy her own
country and many other countries in Europe who were forced to accept this flood
of mostly single young Muslim men. And allegations are floating that she did it
in order to save face, for optics, as the media would have gone berserk
watching women and children being stopped at the border. For the sake of Merkel’s
optics, Europe has become a safe-haven for terrorists and savages who slash and
burn their way across many European countries with generous welfare states and
no backbone to say no because it contradicts their multiculturalist generosity
and Fabian socialist values.
It is not just the European youth who want to stay in
college forever at the expense of government, with no idea as to what kind of
taxes the rest of society must pay for all the welfare. Millennials are
learning from their European counterparts that they deserve everything for free
simply because they exist. The elderly in the former Iron Curtain countries are
longing for the “simple days of communism.” And the young, who have no experience
or idea what communism was like foolishly vote and demonstrate to bring about
neo-communism.
The youth of Macedonia are involved in #resist and are active in trying to destabilize their center-right
government, using anarchist advice from a translation into Macedonian of Saul
Alinsky’s book, Rules for Radicals,
and money from the many radical NGOs in the west, allegedly including the Open
Society Foundations.
Much of the youth in Romania who demonstrated by the
hundreds of thousands for days, resisting
(#resist) against an imaginary
oppression, did not bother to vote because the government was not giving them
discounts to go by bus to vote, only to those who had to go by train. According
to my friend Darius, who lives in Romania, the Social Democrat Party’s (PSD) hard-core
senior supporters threatened their grandchildren if they went out to vote. The elderly nostalgia for communism included
the PSD promise of higher pensions. It did not matter to them that the PSD
leader, Liviu Dragnea, was a “convicted criminal.” “Dragnea appointed a Muslim
woman as Prime Minister. President Klaus Johannis rejected his PM choice as her
husband’s ties to Syria came to light.”
Twenty-seven years after the theoretical fall of communism,
Romania still struggles with the scars left by decades of totalitarian rule under
a brutal communist dictator. Lacking the Romanian version of the American
dream, most people put in positions of power use their authority to enrich
themselves and their friends because stealing was a way of survival under
communism and it remains “glorified” today. People vote for corrupt and often
uneducated leaders because they sell their votes for a disposable cell phone or
a 15 euro bribe. Then they complain when nothing changes. Corruption is a way
of life, including the expectation and acceptance of bribes.
Poor Romanians, who fell through the cracks of EU
development funds, still live the same deprived lives. They may find more food
but cannot afford it, nor are they able to bribe doctors under the socialized
medical care system. Unable to afford private insurance premiums, such superior
care remains a luxury service. Consequently, many die of treatable conditions
while waiting their turn in numerous
lines to be seen by socialized medicine government doctors.
Communist rhetoric of equality and social justice entices and
mesmerizes well-fed and clothed American millennials who are surrounded by
wealth, food, proper medical care, good housing, transportation, college
education paid by Pell grants, electronic gadgets, their Starbucks lattes,
heating, cooling, clean streets, cars, and malls. They have no idea what
communist life was and is like. Few visit Cuba, Venezuela, or North Korea to
see how people actually live under communist oppression. Thoroughly
brainwashed, millennials dismiss as propaganda all testimonials of those who had
lived under communism, survived and escaped to the west.
As Eugene Lyons wrote in his 1937 book, Assignment to Utopia,
”The
Russian Revolution, in March, 1917, was, for most of the boys in my college
freshman classes, just one more headline in a time replete with startling news.”
They understood it as the initial stage of the world revolution, the fight against
capitalists in America, the very capitalism that gave new American arrivals an
opportunity to a better life.
“Anarchists,
socialists, American lumberjacks, Jewish clothing workers, Russian
intellectuals, Italian terrorists, Hindu nationalists, even liberals with
creases in their pants and Harvard accents” were part of the radical
movements during Eugene Lyon’s youth.
Not unlike today, the rabid anarchists of the turn of the twentieth
century were brainwashed in college and on the streets to fight against the “capitalist
injustice.” Their simpler motives were greed and envy. The sweat shops of the
have nots and the opulence of the haves were infuriating the anarchists, many of
whom were either coming from a working class background or were well off and
ashamed of their creature comforts, yet were unwilling to give them up.
The shackles binding the people of the world to oppression were
the shackles fashioned by communist revolutionaries and Bolsheviks who had a
huge following of college-age anarchists. Crafty and sly, the commies
sugar-coated empty and deceptive promises of egalitarian utopia, passing on clever
euphemisms to new generations, including today’s oblivious global citizen youth
who have no clue what they are dreaming of and demanding in their #resist demonstrations and riots.
The author,Ileana Johnson, is completely cut off from Romanian reality.Ileana(a Romanian name) bases everything what she writes in this article on hearsays, nothing of substance. Who knows, maybe at the time when she was a Romanian citizen living in Romania, her perception of the Romanian's life was a no good one. Now, living in Canada, her mentality regarding Ropmania appears to have remained frozen in the past.
