YES! There is really hope if these generations understand that one truth!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this, SC! So simple and so obvious.
I am attempting to ask those questions with friends and loved ones. For instance, "Why would you think that the Board of Education cares a lick about our children or their education? Why would we put the governemnt in charge of anything when they cannot stop spending money created out of thin air? Is college the biggest scam of our lifetime? Why would you trust Big Pharma when they repeatedly lie, commit fraud, and keep you addicted to their toxic soup of poisons?"
Asking questions is a way to (perhaps) open up a rational dialogue.
Remember who it was saying that every child should go to college: Hillary. In other words--every child should continue his indoctrination program until reaching majority. And start as early as possible with day care and nursery school.
You cite an important thing, the need to consider the [likely] motivations of different entities. Nietzsche called this "perspectivism” in the sense that each person views reality differently, influenced by his own (often subconscious) desires, needs, etc. You don’t need to be a genius to use such mental tools, either. For example in the case of a Board of Education, it’s probably unfair to say they don’t care about educating children. It'd be closer to the truth that education is only one of many competing needs: A dispassionate analysis of the various stakeholders might show that a certain group, let’s say the elected board members, are also motivated by the perceived need to maintain their power, to insure its continuation (e.g. be re-elected), to remain in goods standing with their peers (not necessarily the “customer”, e.g. parents of school age children), or even allegiance to an in-group (the NEA) fashionable theories of how best to educate children. The above is probably only a partial list of major factors, but it’s a start. A parent or other person might citizen them for not “putting the children first,” but even that is a perspective, and one that fails to consider the other players in the game, so to speak. Another way to look at the issue is that most players lack a complete model of the game. In other words, they don’t have a good approximation of reality, and thus any attempt to modify it or even participate will likely be sub-optimal. And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why your son comes home and thinks he should be a girl.
