Progressivism has been a catch-phrase for anything that scorns traditional education and principles. "Nearly all children nowadays were horrible. What was worst of all was that by means of such organizations as the Spies they were systematically turned into ungovernable little savages, and yet this produced in them no tendency whatever to rebel against the discipline of the Party. On the contrary, they adored the Party and everything connected with it… All their ferocity was turned outwards, against the enemies of the State, against foreigners, traitors, saboteurs, thought-criminals. It was almost normal for people over thirty to be frightened of their own children." - George Orwell, “1984”
The result of Progressivism in our schools is the worst of our days: history revisionism, downtrodden teachers, rude children, administration prevented from administering appropriate discipline, gender confusion, promiscuity. Pre-teen lives devastated by statutory rapes among minors and between teachers and students while teaching Sex Ed as an ‘abstract’ issue and handing out condoms as a universal cure that doesn’t protect the mind and soul--and often not even the physical body. Children becoming parents whether or not they kill their unborn. Let’s admit it: Progressivism is anything BUT true progress. And Wisconsin Senator Joe McCarthy was right about a conspiracy.
