My thesis is that civilization naturally tends towards the same tenets that Marxism uses, so liberty will flounder if it is not taught. For liberty to work, people have to rise above their base motivations & natural inclinations. When Libertyists lost the schools, that was the end.

I agree. In the same way, "naturally" acting man will tend toward base motivations and natural inclinations, unless they are shown a belief system that encourages them to rise above those base motivations & natural inclinations, i.e. Christianity.

Well, organized religion did subdue the monopoly at the public schools for a long time; many teachers were good Christians. I'd bet that's not a factor now, at least where I live.

In my county, you start getting the activists when you hit middle school and they're all over the high school. Having worked professionally with these people as an adult, I can confirm that the progressive rot is encouraged by the administration through the counseling office.

The elementary schools retain the classic vibe, though. That's not the case everywhere, I know. It'll become less and less now that there are no safeguards between normal Americans and disgusting communists.
