To fight pornography in the schools, a Texas housewife recently appeared at a school-board meeting. She lectured the officials: “I do not want my children to learn about anal sex in middle school. … I want you to start focusing on education, not public health.”
Education, as we’ll see, is the first refuge of scoundrels. Do you imagine that this school board is hip and cutting-edge? In fact, liberals have had few new ideas in more than a century. During World War 1, the communist government of Hungary “imposed a system of pornographic sex education on Hungarian school pupils.” Ever since, communists have tried the same pervy tricks again and again.
During World War 1, the deputy people’s commissar for culture and education was an extreme Marxist named György Lukács, then considered the most brilliant communist since Marx himself. He advocated promiscuity, denounced the family, and encouraged children to mock their parents and religion. The question Lukács posed was, “Who will save us from Western civilization?”
Marxist theory circa 1900 said that if Europe ever erupted in war, the working classes in every European country would rise in revolt and create a new communist Europe. Instead, the workers in every country lined up by the millions to fight their country’s enemies.
Why is Marxist theory incorrect? Two leading Marxist intellectuals, Antonio Gramsci in Italy and Lukács in Hungary, independently came up with the same answer. They said that Western culture and the Christian religion had so blinded the working class to its true, Marxist class interests, that a communist revolution was impossible in the West until both could be destroyed. That objective, established as cultural Marxism’s goal at the beginning, has never changed.
When WWI was over, Marxists set about devising strategies specifically aimed at conquering Western civilization, which is still their main obsession.

American communism might explain how yesterday’s liberals become today’s warmongers.
For example, communism requires conformity to group norms or subservience to collective requirements. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was a direct attack on the “international rules-based order,” the collective. Therefore Russia — not war itself — is dangerous to children and other living things.
It is also significant that Russia’s government actively supports Christianity, family values and a national identity — all things the USA used to do prior to the normalization of communist ideology here.
But American liberals have always denied their own communism. I expect the same will happen here.

Do you think Scandinavian countries are communist?

I don’t think what Scandanavian countries are matters in the slightest with respect to Mr. Price’s article or my observations.

Why yes it does. If we are trending towards communism, then we need to define it better.
We have a partial welfare state with some help for low income healthcare and child supports. We have entitlements that workers pay for until retirement. And that is what bothers some conservatives as it appears to be one step away from communism in the populist mind. Your “normalization of communist ideology” means nothing without explanation.
So whether you consider Scandinavian governments to be communist or not helps define what you are discussing.
But, if you dismiss that observation, I certainly understand. After all, the word “communism” is so juicy on its own, why bother to define it as it applies to our country.

I’m sorry, I have read this article three times and I still have no clue as to “why communists are trying to destroy us.” I only see examples of “how” communists are trying to destroy us. Apparently they plan to do it through sex education.
The article begins with the outrage of a mother who doesn’t want her children to learn about anal sex in middle school. Unfortunately for her, those children will learn about anal sex whether she likes it or not. Most people would rather have their children learn about it from a school teacher in a classroom during the day than from a Scoutmaster in a tent in the middle of the night.
And no, this article did not prove to me that “education is the first refuge of scoundrels.”
You seem to be claiming that the Christian religion must be destroyed before communism can take over. But communism was the religion of the disciples. Jesus commanded them “sell all you own, give it to the poor.” Capitalism is not a Christian concept. The argument that communists want to destroy Christianity in order to destroy America does not hold up.
Also, the argument that sex education is destroying Christianity does not hold up. If the sexual morals of Christianity are being compromised, it is the Church itself that’s doing it. From Jimmy Swaggart through a never ending list of pedophile priests to the Christian community’s support for an adulterous President who brags about grabbing women by the pussy, the Church has done this to themselves.
Oddly enough, an acceptance of diversity and a tolerance of multiculturalism are supposed to be Christian values. So is “non-judgmental tolerance.” (Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors… etc) If Lukács concluded he needed people to accept those ideas in order to accept communism, he should have been promoting Christianity.
I don’t see communism everywhere in our society “attacking, attacking, attacking.” I do see a society that is “awakening” to the facts of social injustice.

You have got to be THE sickest liberal I have ever come across. Middle school kids shouldn’t have a clue what anal sex is but you jackasses not only want them to know but to perform it for class work while pretending to be the opposite sex. You prove the article is accurate in describing liberal communist perverts the death of a civilized culture.

Have you checked a middle schoolers phone lately? THere is no telling what they have searched for.
And the rest of your tirade is idiocy to the Nth degree. Again. You have ZERO proof that this is happening, just your hatred for everything that isn’t YOU.

With all the sex scandals regarding pedophile priests, bishops, reverends in several Christian sects, I would say that anal and oral sex education has been handled quite graphically by conservative Christian perverts that saturate the hierarchical religions.
People like Jim Jordan taught post graduate “anology”.
Therein lies a greater threat to civilized culture.

RE: “The argument that communists want to destroy Christianity in order to destroy America does not hold up.”
It holds up quite well if you read the Communist Manifesto or Mao’s Little Red Book. Communist ideology holds that ALL religions promote false consciousness, meaning the failure to perceive the historical dialectic or class struggle.
Generally speaking communists want to destroy America because of America’s capitalism. Personally, I think Christianity has the potential to save the nation, but its not a sure thing.

I would say that Christians should focus in saving themselves before trying to take over the country with their ideas of Christian Nationalism. THere are a lot of OTHER religions observed in this country and the First Amendment wants to protect them ALL, including Christianity. But Christians who want “their way or the highway” religiosity are DANGEROUS to the country, not saviors of it.
