Why Do Progressives Hate Kids?
By J. Robert Smith
It’s a tough question to ask: Why do progressives hate kids? The question answers itself when you start stacking up the evidence. Kids across the country -- in various ways and to varying degrees -- are suffering as a result.
The midterm elections are about a lot of big issues: inflation, housing costs, groceries, gas, crime, the border… but the progressives’ comprehensive assault on children ranks right up there.
It’s cliché, but America’s future is its kids. Today, a perverse ethos guides progressives. That ethos in practice is doing incalculable damage to young lives. What progressives believe amounts to rationalized debauchery.
The culture needs to be reclaimed by the decent majority. Faith in God -- increasingly unfashionable among progressives -- remains the powerful counter to the resulting cancerous nihilism of progressivism. The spiritual is the raison d'etre for the traditional values and mores that are necessary for society’s survival and health.
The evil derives, in large part, from Marxism, which, in one form or another, is the animating spirit of modern progressivism. Marx’s acolytes realized decades ago that to overthrow America’s magnificent experiment in liberty, it wasn’t enough to undermine free enterprise, but destroy the culture, which is the country’s backbone… which, as a matter of fact, is any country’s backbone.
