’Twas always thus with totalitarian regimes. From Plato advocating abducting children from their parents for inculcation to Hitler Youth to cult leaders, authoritarians always want to sink their fangs into those tender, malleable developing brains for maximum indoctrination potential:

Reminds me of the Jesuit maxim, “Give me the child for the first seven years, and I'll give you the man,” which was the inspiration behind Michael Apted’s brilliant “7 Up” series.
my father and his brother went to high school in Ecuador and Hitler had satellite office / youth group there which aggressively attempted to indoctrinate the kids... my grandfather was furious...
i think about this with what’s happening in the schools... parents better wise up and stay involved in their kids’ lives.
the indoctrination brigade was relentless... would follow them home, knocking on their door at dinner time... ours was the last family out of Czechoslovakia after Hitler invaded... my grandpa had to sign documents of allegiance to the government just to get out... it almost didn’t happen.
Canada has recently undertaken the project of finding all the mass graves of the native children it had kidnapped and tortured to death in its state and/or church run "Residential Schools" and returning their bodies to the communities and families they were originally stolen from.
Unfortunately too little too late. At least the truth has come out. I am sure same thing happened in the US and is still on going in Australia, where the aboriginals are being treated worse than animals.

Give us the child for 8 years and it will be a Bolshevik forever.

Oh my goodness, it sounds like the “Boys from Brazil,” only with real children instead of Hitler clones!

not forgetting the native children that are taken from their homes to re-educate them
