It is amusing to see this paper's willingness to publish any letter that suggests Trump is about to be some form of evil, now as a proto-eugenecist, as suggested by Allison Norrie on the October 21 opinion page.

It is scary to see how blind this paper is to the movements actively looking to undermine the republic and ruin our children along the way. How many have been castrated in the name of trans-ideology? How many lives are worse because of the division created by BLM? According to the likes of Robin D'Angelo, Ibram X. Kendi, and Ta-Nehisi Coates, our skin color is the only thing that should define us, and rage against the inherently, genetically racist white man (and even the “white” black men who think like he does) is entirely justified.

Where is the hand wringing over the left's desire to throttle speech a la Robert Reich or Hilary Clinton? If they could do to Elon Musk what the French did to Pavel Durov, they would in a heartbeat.

It is happening here, but it is not Trump who is pushing this garbage with his off-hand somewhat colorful remarks.

Our schools have already been captured. We are experiencing an insidious overturning of all that is great in our society. We are confusing our children, and then teaching them how their confusion is given by some diabolical power structure which is always aligned against them.

They art taught that we must tear down the power structures: Merit is racist. Timeliness is racist. Science is racist—or throw in your ism of the day. Anything that supports our current way of life is the enemy.

On the contrary, Trumpist nationalism will help us return to the best parts of our past, and create the space for a better future for all of us. Perhaps we should be more wary of those who disdain and dismiss with prejudice those who “cling to their guns and religion,” the “conspiracy theorists,” the “domestic extremists,” the “MAGA Republicans,” or the “basket of deplorables,” to quote a few notable Democrats.
