Over at American Greatness, Stanley K. Ridgley take a look at the Cult of Social Justice Education. Well worth a read, you can nver know “too much” about your enemies. And, yes, the Left wants to erase this country, so, you damn well better see the left as your enemy
In both substance and in method, “social justice education” in the American university constitutes a cult.
“Social justice education” serves as an umbrella term for a family of “pedagogies,” all of which utilize coercive persuasion as a tool for conversion to a clearly identifiable ideology, which is primitive, paranoid, and Manichean. “Antiracist pedagogy” and “critical pedagogy” are just two of the teaching programs that exhibit the characteristics of the modern secular cult, most egregiously in recruitment methods.
Those who deploy social justice education in our colleges utilize psychological manipulation tools utilized by cults and by communist Chinese thought reform, which is commonly called “brainwashing.” More troubling is that these methods are openly advocated, with instruction manuals published to train faux educators to coerce college students with psychological manipulation.
This ideology of “social justice” and its offshoots constitute a primitive villains-and-victims doctrine drawn from Karl Marx, Mao Zedong, Paulo Freire, ancient Manicheism, and modern “consciousness raising” cults.
Again, go read it all. This is really as serious a threat as there is. And, if you think this is only about colleges? Oh no, the fights right now against CRT, and the 1619 Project and grooming young children is likely entrenched to some degree in pubic, and private schools. Never underestimate the left’s commitment to “re-educating” our kids. And, the language is packaged carefully so as to discourage anyone who does argue against it.
Consider words like “inclusion and acceptance”, “peace and unity”, “belonging” and, of course “tolerance”. Beautiful words, but words that have nothing to do with the end game or the let. In fact, these words are the opposite of what the left intends.
More fitting words would be “compliance” “control” and “coercion”. Again, go read it all.
