…..“The Naked Communist.” The title, I admit, is chuckle-worthy, but the words inside are no laughing matter, particularly when one reads the section titled, “Importance of the Psychological War.”
Written in 1958, some of the “current strategy goals which the Communists and their fellow travelers are seeking to achieve” seem dated and read like a history book from the past. But then one comes to item number 17:
“Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks.” (Emphasis added.)
That part in bold especially caught my attention. Haven’t Americans been suspicious for years that public school curriculum has been dumbed down? Prominent public figures have certainly made this claim, while a comparison of middle school reading lists from today’s schools and those of 100 years ago provides further evidence.
Things take a step closer to home by encouraging the use of “student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.” We’ve had not a little experience with riots and protests lately, many of which have been heavily attended by young people. Are they mere tools in the hands of an ideology we don’t realize is pulling the strings?
Even more terrifying, the list progresses from student riots to the cancel culture and statue bashing we are also currently experiencing.
“Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression,” item number 22 commands, while number 31 calls for Communists to “[b]elittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history….”
The document also suggests discrediting both the Constitution and the Founding Fathers.
Here in LA, the teachers are not only demanding that schools stay closed, they are now refusing to participate in online teaching at home citing various “anxieties” related to how they and their homes look on camera. The kicker? They are demanding additional pay if they have to drive to schools to conduct this online teaching. What gall. Time to just lay them all off and start from scratch. Worked when Reagan fired the striking air traffic controllers who believed they could not be replaced.

Perfect depiction of Chicago Teachers Union Karen Lewis as representative of these thuggish unions,

Poor Schools and Poor Teachers have killed more young blacks and Hispanics than the Police.
Poor Administrators too.

Even the RINO mayors are going along with keeping schools shut up.

Definitely time to ditch the “teacher’s” unions. Arguably time to ditch public schools themselves.
Love the well-fed, sourpuss teacher!
Remember how Reagan handled the air traffic controller’s strike?
What a coincidence. If I’d had sons, I wanted to name them Uca and Tion.
It’s time for some union busting.
President Reagan ended the Air Controllers Strike, it’s more than time to end the Teacher’s Union.
