    The willingness on the part of "progressives" to brainwash children has been one of the worst-kept dirty secrets for over a century, and just like Joe Biden they just can't keep their hands off the kids.

    While doing a little research into the Left's efforts to push Critical Race Theory and the garbage associated with that Neo-Marxist hate propaganda in public K-12 schools, I happened to see a few children's books that caught my attention. Perhaps, you've seen them yourself, but for those who haven't I thought I'd share a few examples.

    Since I'm supposed to express my personal opinion here, I've always felt how other parents raise their kids is their business, not mine, but I've never been a fan of politically indoctrinating toddlers and young children and I refused to subject my own offspring to that treatment. One of the unfortunate realities of life during this day and age is that many adults won't let children be children and it seems that during this day and age our culture and media are hell bent on trying to turn children into adults long before they can grasp the concept and responsibilities of adulthood.

    But I digress, so let's take a look into the "progressive" indoctrination of children. The first book is co-authored by racist Marxist CRT guru Ibram X. Kendi, and I'll provide you with the cover art, some illustrations and a link to where they being sold on Amazon. Some commentary will follow.

    Exhibit A - and I have to admit to some extent this stuff is comical...

    ANTI-RACIST BABY.jpg


    Antiracist Baby Picture Book
    https://www.amazon.com/Antiracist-B...2418f&pd_rd_wg=cMlSA&pd_rd_i=0593110501&psc=1

    Not that there is such a thing as an antiracist baby but reality has never been a concern of Ibram X. Kendi and his Marxist ilk.

    Now, this one cracks me up, as do some of the comments in the Review section:

    Truly an idiotic book, but I just bought this as a joke for a new father who would find this amusing. Horrible message, not that a toddler would understand anyways. I think it's just written so that new parents of my generation (millennials) can feel good about themselves

    C'mon - as far as gag gifts go this deserves waaay more than one star...

    Oh no! Our educators are teaching kids how to argue against white supremacy which is a pressing national security issue! Oh the horrors of teachers trying to prevent students from becoming radicalized and shooting up schools! Whatever will we do?

    I’ve been told sarcasm is the lowest form of comedy. Though your arguments might be a close second.

    I wish that were true. Unfortunately, kids are being shielded from experiences that help them grow into emotionally intelligent adults. The real trophy for losing is a lesson in persistence. Shielding them from being offended prepares them to live in a world that does not exist. Children play together and don't make race an issue until an adult teaches them it is.

    When one grows to adulthood unprepared for these challenges, they are more likely to act violently, not less.

    Yeah that’s called bullying and that actually leads to emotionally stunted individuals who have crippling problems for the rest of the lives. The endurance of pain doesn’t equal strength

    They are teaching white supremacy, not history.

    They should be teaching children how to think, not what to think. Prove me wrong.

    I mean yeah kinda that’s what the anti racist education is for. To prevent that from happening by changing school curriculum to keep the racists in check.

    I want my kid to think bedtime is bedtime. And if my kid asks why I’ll give them an answer but at the end of the day they’re going to bed.

    Holding separate meetings for teachers based on their race? Teaching children that race determines if they are oppressors or oppressed? They are separating based on race.

    What you are saying is you are in charge of your kids, not teachers unions or teachers.

    And? What’s your point? I once went to a meeting for women about how as women we can deal with sexism in the workplace. That’s completely justified to have and do.

    Did you meet with children to discuss this?

    But they are in charge of my kids when they’re in the classroom, and so long as they are a student. I want teachers to teach kids certain things that are going to be the groundwork for bigger ideas. I want my kids to kids to be taught how to read and write instead of thinking about why you don’t need to read or write. I want my kids to learn about dinosaurs and not ask why they’re learning about dinosaurs as a way to prepare them for evolutionary theory.

    No this was a meeting when I was an undergrad. Though that sounds really good. I would love to have a kids perspective on this.

    In many areas they are failing at that but do you think you have any say in what schools teach? Do you think you have no say?

    Would you teach them that all men are rapists?

    I mean I’m not really into 2nd wave feminism but I understand the point their making when they say that. So I guess the answer is no unless it’s in the context of 2nd wave feminism.

    Would you teach children they are the oppressor or oppressed based solely on their skin color?
