Even in high school, I found myself offended by my fellow students who were card-carrying communists in their beliefs and sympathies. In fact, a sizeable number of students clung to Marxism as dogma. The high school was Central High School for Boys, a school for gifted boys located in Philadelphia, Pa. Later, as I continued my studies in the Ivy League, I saw that there was a consistently strong element of intellectuals who were not in the least embarrassed to express their interest in communism.

The problem is that these deeply indoctrinated Leftist kids are not going to wake up one morning, see the error of their ways and say "Gee, looks like you guys were right all along; our bad." Some might, but the majority of them won´t and they will react with great and greater violence against anything or anyone that challenges their dogma, even when they know deep down that it´s completely wrong. I´m sorry, but I feel that things are going to get much worse than they are right now, so everyone had best start thinking about how they are going to deal with it.

In DoD schools in Europe we had at least one communist teaching government. And this was in the 70´s. I got kicked out of class for pointing out her indoctrination attempts. This isn´t new, its just more open.

I remember after the USSR broke up that Dennis Miller was hosting a program and said, "Welcome from the USA, the only country with a viable Communist Party." How true.

I was in high school in the ´70s when all students had to take PAD, Problems in American Democracy. I had a problem with the class on so many levels that I got into arguments in almost every class over the glorification of socialism and communism. The left has been pushing this drek for a long time.

Our leftist educators and politicians fashion themselves as intelllectual ´bearers of truth´. They align themselves with socialism and communism out of their arrogance that THEY shouuld be in charge since they are so much smarter than most. And both these ideologies provide the means to wrest control from the poor unenlightened masses. Most of them would disagree that their philosophies are Godless but they only occasionally attend some form of lukewarm church to make them FEEL spiritual.

Now you know why schools protect their own, and hide the internal projects under the name of protecting the students. There are a number of court cases in the Baltimore area where even the parents aren´t allowed to see their child´s records, or news organizations can´t view school records even under the freedom of information act. So far, the court system has found against the school systems, but using taxpayer money they are fighting to keep public records secret. This goes on all over the country, with each school system acting like they are the Kremlin.

#5, I graduated HS in ´65 and had the same sort of class called Problems of Democracy. Best class I ever had at any level. My class mates agreed.
We studied world religions and the absurdity of communism, which didn´t take that long to understand, but this was in a rural area where everyone understood work and reward. The most impressive part of the course for me was the 6 ways advertising manipulate viewers. THAT was the gift the instructor gave us, to not blindly accept everything we saw in the media.
Sadly the kind of back and forth search for truth that occurred in that less than 500, class B, High School seems to be completely gone from the educational system today. Naive, indoctrinated, media taught, ´students´ pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to colleges to become useful tools of communist evil.

I graduated for HS in 1962. Politics were not the major agenda them. Mostly, just normal teenage activities. Cars, girls, keggers (sadly). No deaths on any campus. I don´t like getting old, but way back when respect was pretty high on the list. The school was in charge. I went to a country school from 1955-1958. You did not step out of line. And, no, it was not a concertation camp. My four favorite years of school.
