Gingrich: Progressive Left “Dumbing Down America”

There is a deliberate avoidance to teach the truth behind America’s history, not only from every perspective, but the facts themselves. Let people learn the facts and discover their perspectives on their own. The teachers should guide the methodology of thought, facts, and ideologies. We can’t force people to think a certain way, but the progressive left have certainly scared many into doing so. It’s no wonder people just eat when they’re fed without even looking at the hand.

…and don’t even get me started on the masquerade of virtue signaling. Which is basically the equivalent of, “you can preach about being Christlike to strangers, then go home and talk crap about them.” Complete contradiction and hypocrisy.

Breitbart reported Gingrich’s quotes:

“I think what you’re seeing is the dumbing down of America for three generations, you’re seeing left-wing indoctrination and literally groupthink,” he said.

“I do a podcast, and I talk about shut your mouth. There’s an entire series on where the left has told us, say what they want or else. I really think the time has come to take back the schools and to take back the universities. And I think that a lot of governors, frankly, aren’t doing their job when they allow public universities to be run by people who are radically anti-American.”

“So, this is a very dangerous moment in our history,” Gingrich continued. “We are not going to compete with China if we insist on having schools where the unions won’t teach and what they teach isn’t true. And for example, in Baltimore, their entire buildings were not a single student could pass the state exam.”
