The school system is broken.
The woke have taken over.
Its time to bring them back to earth or bury them.
Teaching our kids to hate
Peter Gleeson
BE AFRAID. Be very afraid. That’s the message we should all take away from Federal Education Minister Alan Tudge’s heated interview on the ABC’s youth radio network, Triple J.
Tudge went toe-to-toe with a Triple J Hack host this week, telling the ABC he doesn’t want young Australians to leave school with a “hatred’’ of their country. “My concern is that the history curriculum, particularly Years 7 to 10, paints an overly negative view of Australia,’’ Tudge said. “We have a lot to be proud of and we should be teaching the great things as much as we should our weaknesses, flaws and historical wrongs.
“We want to make sure people come out (of school) with a love of our country, rather than a hate for it.
“Australia is not this horrible, terrible, racist, sexist country. We are one of the greatest egalitarian free countries in the world.’’
Hack host Avani Dias countered, saying “a lot of people, Minister, would probably disagree with those things’’.
Tudge also said he was concerned about the way Anzac Day was presented in the draft new national education curriculum. He said it should be “our most sacred of days’’ yet in the proposed new curriculum, a portion of the Year 9 First World War component includes different historical interpretations and contested debates about the nature and significance of the Anzac legend and the war.
Of course, Tudge is not only right, but he would have the backing of most Australians, especially those over age 40 who have pride in their country, and have witnessed first hand the escalation of cancel culture within society. But here’s the rub. Our kids — your kids and grandkids — are being brainwashed and we are seemingly powerless to stop it.
When even the Federal Education Minister laments the way in which Anzac Day and Australia Day is now being portrayed by educators in our schools, we know we have a major problem. They are being taught that these are days of shame and it’s being perpetuated by your ABC, the broadcasting company that you — the taxpayer — funds each year to the tune of about $1.2 billion.
What chance do our kids have when teachers get to them during primary school, hone their indifference in high school, reinforce the shame and hatred at university, then present it as fact on their preferred radio network?
Australia is the best place in the world to live and the kids of today don’t realise just how good they have it. We are indeed The Lucky Country.
Unfortunately, we’re brainwashing them into believing we are bad people.
The real tragedy is we’re letting them get away with it.
