A new YouGov/Economist poll reveals that more than 20%
of Americans aged 18-29 believe the Holocaust is a “myth”
or “has been exaggerated.” An additional 30% say they aren’t certain whether or
not the 20th-century genocide actually occurred. That means over half of
this age group either doesn’t believe the Holocaust really happened, thinks it
to be exaggerated—or isn’t sure if it was real or not.
As The Economist reports, ”Young people are
nearly five times more likely to think this than those aged 65 and older.” What
a shocking and brutal indictment of our modern educational system.
This is what
happens when history—real history, not revisionist—is no longer taught. It has
real-world, real-time consequences. As the old saying goes, “If you don’t know
history, you are bound to repeat it.” And, in this case, that is
catastrophic.
In this time of
hoaxes, hyper-wokeness, and extreme ignorance, we might well ask: “What else do
younger folks (and leftists) think is a ‘myth,’ and what do they believe to be
fact?”
Myth VS. Fact, 2023 Edition--
Myth: Holocaust.
Fact: Christian nationalism is
surging!
Myth: There are only two sexes.
Fact: There are only two types
of people, oppressors and oppressed!
Myth: The content of one’s
character should trump the color of one’s skin.
Fact: White people are racist because
of their skin color.
Myth: The massive and lengthy riots
of 2020 caused billions of dollars in damage and thousands of injuries.
Fact: Jan. 6 was an all-out
“insurrection”-- fomented and led by
Donald trump-- whose participants deserve to languish in dingy jail cells until
the sun expires.
Myth: God.
Fact: Dr. Fauci and George Floyd
are God-like figures.
Myth: Smoking pot is bad for you.
Fact: Smoking cigarettes is bad for
you.
Myth: Unfettered illegal
immigration is bad for the country.
Fact: Invasive species are an
unmitigated disaster for the country and must be fought tooth and nail at every
turn……or all of our beloved native species will be permanently pushed out.
Here’s
to the future!
