Dennis Prager writes<\/a>:<\/p>\n

In May, the New York City Council voted to de-criminalize urinating in public.
\nLast week, the Italian Supreme Court voted to legalize public masturbation.
\nAccording to a new poll from Ipsos Public Affairs, \u201cAmericans increasingly don’t care if people swear in public . . . . \u2018The acceptability of it in the American public has just kind of skyrocketed,\u2019 Kaitlyn McAuliffe, a senior research manager at Ipsos, explained . . . . Of those survey respondents who said they used the F-word one or more times a day, Bernie Sanders was their top presidential candidate.<\/em>\u201d (Italics added.)
\nIn August, Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank wrote that he will tell his daughter\u2019s teachers that they should bring politics into the classroom and talk to their students against Donald Trump.
\nAt least Milbank is honest about his desire to see schools indoctrinate rather than educate. Few progressives admit that that is what is happening in most American high schools and colleges.
\nIn July, Rachel Maddow of MSNBC told an interviewer: \u201cOver the past year I’ve been reading a lot about what it was like when Hitler first became chancellor. . . . because I think that’s possibly where we are.\u201d
\nVice President Joe Biden, with Hillary Clinton on stage behind him, said to an audience of supporters twice on Aug. 15 that Donald Trump \u201cwould have loved Stalin.\u201d
\nStalin murdered about 30 million people and set up the genocidal Communist regimes of China and North Korea. Biden\u2019s comments were barely reported \u2013 but imagine if Donald Trump or Mike Pence had said Hillary Clinton \u201cwould have loved Stalin\u201d?
\nOn NPR, Travis Rieder, a philosopher at Johns Hopkins University, advocated that Americans be penalized if they have more than one child \u2014 because Americans emit too much carbon dioxide. This is only the latest call of environmentalists since the 1960s asking people not to reproduce.
\nThe Ford foundation just announced that it is committed to raising $100 million for Black Lives Matter. The liberals at the Ford Foundation are raising an astronomical sum of money for an America-hating, Israel-hating, and, of course, police-hating organization.
\nBlack actor Jesse Williams, in accepting BET\u2019s Humanitarian Award, described America as, \u201ca system built to divide and impoverish and destroy us [black Americans],\u201d and concluded his speech saying: \u201cWe\u2019re done watching and waiting while this invention called whiteness uses and abuses us, burying black people out of sight and out of mind while extracting our culture, our dollars, our entertainment like oil \u2013 black gold, ghettoizing and demeaning our creations then stealing them, gentrifying our genius and then trying us on like costumes before discarding our bodies like rinds of strange fruit.\u201d
\nAside from the America-hatred, I have no idea what this last sentence means. But Williams received a prolonged standing ovation, and the media hailed his speech as a masterpiece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
