And what about the impact of over three decades of apocalyptic climate alarmism and the consequent "eco-anxiety" rates in children? As well as on adults not wanting to have children due to such exaggerated alarmism?
Hi Tim and Chelsea ! An interesting discussion. No....the misery is induced by other factors !
Wendell Krossa has raised some valid points too !
At least 3 generations of rotten 'schooling' , ideological propaganda instead of proper teaching and learning , during which the kids have been taught to HATE their own Western Culture , their traditions , their origins , their unique Judeo-Christian Morality and Religion and an overall nationwide general "dumbing-down" of the population ! Falling standards of literacy , numeracy , critical thinking and ethical standards [ like actual generosity , honesty , the work-ethic , loyalty , self reliance and responsibility .......amongst a whole plethora of others virtues ! ].
The kids "graduate" with an appalling LACK of skills , virtually unemployable in their "chosen field" [ which they were probably coerced or misguided into.......by "experts" ! ] ; AND knowing how ill-equipped they are , and having wasted some of the best years of their short lives receiving 'propaganda' which they now also have to pay for [ HECS/HELP ] , they are not just miserable , they are resentful , angry , frustrated , depressed , drained , discouraged , cornered and often defeated , disoriented and potentially suicidal and/or reactionary or visciously aggressive !
Their self confidence is shredded , the future is bleak and their grip on reality has been seriously diminished ! The "cultural destruction" they now experience [ instead of education ] is very much like Mao Zedong's 1966-1976 "Cultural Revolution " where the past has been swept away [ all with "good intentions" of course .....like all truly evil enterprises ! ] and their value system has been undermined , belittled and rejected and they are left confused and dazed.....and hopeless !
And yet NOTHING is done about this ROTTEN CURRICULUM that continues to screw-up and discard our students like so much 'cannon fodder'....... just to enrich tertiary institutions ......and parasitic ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF in particular !
It also churns out inadequate 'liberals' by the 'bucketful' with their highest accolade being that of a "leftist activist" , barely literate , barely numerate , barely able to concentrate for more than 30 seconds , incoherent , inarticulate , ignorant of history and geography and science , obsessed with "their rights .....and feeling all entitled" and possessing little or no merit other than perhaps youth and vigour and the potential to improve................. IF given a proper education !
What a perversion and dereliction-of-duty the 'education system" has devolved into !!!!
.
Progress IS a Western concept ! It encourages and expects and anticipates THE BEST in everyone
and , with its ethos , ideas , inventions and innovations , it has turned the entire World from a "killing machine" into a civilised , liveable , worthwhile situation where people have largely escaped poverty , misery , deprivation , illness , ignorance and exploitation ; where they can enjoy private ownership of their body and possessions and reward for their labour , increasing material welbeing and a longer and healthier and more full-filling life and FREEDOM !
No other system or ideology has ever produced such benefits !
.
So......no......PROGRESS ITSELF has NOT produced this ! It is "progressives" and their weird ideology that twists everything into the opposite of what it purports to be THAT HAVE DONE THIS !
"Progressive" they claim but in reality it is "Regressive" in practise , Truth becomes 'whatever you want it to be' and no longer based on empirical evidence , and so on ....all down the drain !
Orwell's book , "1984" , encapsulates it absolutely precisely ! More people should READ IT !
BUT what Orwell wrote AS A WARNING , the 'left" has adopted as an INSTRUCTION MANUAL !!!
"Catastrophic Climate Change" is a perfect illustration of the political corruption of science !
