Outlet Urges Kiddie Shows To Ramp Up Climate Fear, Fueling Childhood Anxiety
by Linnea Lueken  Nov 18, 2024 

class kids scared climate
A recent article posted at a Jacksonville news affiliate website, “News4Jax,” suggests that kids’ TV shows should push more climate propaganda and environmentalist content in order to “empower” them to act on those issues. [emphasis, links added]

This is just advocating for yet more activist content, of which there is already plenty. Young people are already largely afraid of the future, and this will not help.


The article, “Toddlers And TV: Making Screentime Matter For Children Concerned About Climate Change,” quickly introduces the idea that a majority of kids are scared about their futures because of climate change.

News4Jax writes that a recent survey found “54% of children are fearful about what climate change will mean for their future,” and goes on to say that television shows “can be a powerful tool for fostering environmental awareness.”

Hitler and Goebbles would be so envious of today's leftists, democrats, and progressives at how much they influence America with their propaganda, and without firing a shot. 888sunglass

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Remember when cartoons entertained, and children were allowed to be children?

I long for those days, for my great-grandkids.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
