Friends, today I invite you to read this fascinating and detailed analysis of the fertility crisis besetting -- currently -- the Western world and -- soon -- the world as a whole. Many of its insights I agree with completely, except for one. It suggests that young people aren't procreating because of their rational concerns about climate change, poor job prospects, and declining standards of living. Nonsense! Never has humanity been less vulnerable to weather-related threats. Never have personal incomes and living standards been higher, and they're still rising overall. Sure, adjusting to the modern economy can be challenging, and some people have made dreadful choices that make their path to success moderately perilous, but if people just stopped to compare their "first world problems" to the deprivation, oppression, and constant physical danger that most human beings faced through most of history, they might gain a little perspective. So, America, get off your backsides and get fruitful and multiply ASAP! I insist.
In other news, here's a (terribly written) editorial defending the new policy of Minneapolis's public schools that they will fire white teachers before they fire black ones. The shameless racism you'll see here is truly jaw-dropping. The normalization of racial discrimination on the Left is something we have to contend with, though -- and, if we get another term of "Democratic" rule in 2024-28, you can bet that neo-Marxist judges will be imposing this sort of bigotry on all of us, and don't even dream of complaining about it when you're given a pick slip, because that would be (you guessed it) RACIST!
Speaking of education, here's an eloquent defense of charter schools, school choice, and indeed any alternative that presents itself to subjecting your kids to the horrors of a public school miseducation!

ReplyDeleteVouchers for schools, charter schools, and home schooling are all cop outs. Instead of fixing the public school system and rinsing the Leftist brain-washing out of it, we start yapping about alternatives.
Very few people are qualified to homeschool. They may think they are, but they are not. Vouchers are not going to help people who can't afford private schools, and which are probably some of the most Leftist institutions there are.
The public school system is what needs to be fixed, and has not been because a lot of people who should know better are basically cowards, who have handed over the public school system to a small group of Leftist academic degenerates for decades now.
Hopefully, fixing the current system may already be in action in numerous school districts.
Again, fix the system instead of offering fantasy solutions to existing problems. The same applies to higher education which is responsible for the indoctrination of young people who teach in Left-wing ideology.

ReplyDeleteI realize it's none of my business, but are you doing your part in producing children for our Motherland? Or maybe its our Fatherland? What is it now, our Transgender Land? Seriously Nick, if you don't have kids, you need to spread your superior Anglo-Saxon seed around, married or not.
So let's get in there (you know where) and start fertilizing some eggs for America. And if the woman is too homely, you can always put a U.S. flag over her face, and do it for "Old Glory".
Ha! Ray, I don't have any kids, that I know of, but it's conceivable there are dozens out there that I've never met. Frankly, I've suspected for years that mad eugenicists might be stealing my seed in my sleep and breeding a race of supermen in the foothills of the Andes somewhere. But I could be completely wrong. It might be the Himalayas instead.
ReplyDeleteI hear you about the public schools. The two approaches are not mutually exclusive, however. The secession of millions of schoolchildren from the current public system is precipitating a financial crisis that MIGHT cause the schools to rethink their obsession with leftist indoctrination...or it might cause them to fire all the white teachers and keep only the confirmed woke ones. Could go either way.
