Lessons Learned. Lessons Unheeded

If you were educated in the West, your history lessons taught you that totalitarian regimes always end up ‘coming for your children’.  One need only to recall pictures of Adolf Hitler inspecting the child soldiers making a last stand for the Third Reich.  Or we can remember the famous story of Pavlik Morozov, one of many Stalinist-era teens who denounced his father and reported him to the NKVD for criticizing the regime.  The lesson that we were taught was that these totalitarians purposely weakened the bond between parents and child so as to neuter the family as a rival center of loyalty. The state had to be the only organization that could command one’s devotion.

We scoffed at the notion that it could happen here. But it is happening here.

One example is the overwhelming triumph of LGBTism, and now the fad of transgenderism is the triumph of the individual over the family, and the triumph of the state over it as well. By the abuse of the education system turning children against their parents through approval of toxic ideologies, the state creates willing Janissaries, fanatical in their determination that its the family that is wrong.

 

Abigail Shirer has written an incredible piece on what happens when the state apparatus comes for your children in the name of transgenderism. In some cases the ability of the state to wrestle away children as young as 13 from their families without the permission of the family is simply a 21st century version of the Devshirme (Blood-Tax), the Ottoman practice of kidnapping Christian boys, circumcising them, converting them to Islam, and training them to become Janissaries for the Sultan.

Critical Race Theory is now the new frontier of totalitarianism, lead by the same proponents of other toxic ideologies. Only this time self hate and racial division are the platform the state attempts to steal the children.

Children you should be afraid of if they succeed.
