I got some advice today from a follower on IG, and I am trying to work out a script or outline for a video about it. He said I should steer away from talking about individualism for now because the push to "problematize" it has been far too successful. He said even well-meaning liberals knew-jerk react to the term as indicative of selfishness,man's actively reject it as a goal or value for their kids to aspire to.
As much as it pained me to hear it, I realized he was right. Instead, he said I should focus on the MIND and using it to navigate reality. Your average parent at least won't admit out loud wanting their child to avoid using their mind, or to insist on living in a fantasy worldly their own creation, and yet that's what the woke/CRT/social justice ideology is teaching kids to do:
reject reality if it contradicts the arguments of the critical race theorists. Facts, statistics, and math itself are tools of the white oppressor!
create a new fantasy world that not only doesn't exist, it can't exist without forcing millions to do things they don't want to do because they're not in their self interest.
*care what other people think about you (something you can't ever control) more than you care about developing good character and even more than your own survival. Bend the knee and pump the fist (or else)! Or make others do these things under threat if bodily harm!
Is this what average parents want for their kids? I doubt it, but if they don't take action to stop it; woke ideologues in our educational room institutions will teach their kids to actively avoid using their OWN minds in favor of relying on the minds of others in positions of power.
As I said, still working out how to present this, but that's my thinking. Thoughts?
