Wow, this is awesome.Adam Carolla, in 10 minutes, sums up pretty much everything I’ve ever said on this site (and anywhere else) about: liberals, rich vs. poor, entitlement-mentality, handouts, bailouts, Islamic terrorism, Occupy Whatever, public education, self-esteem programs, trophies for everyone, and why this society has gone to hell. And, frankly, why I think it can’t recover. Why it’ll never recover when we’re saddled with an entire generation (two, actually, if you really think about it) that were incorrectly raised and indoctrinated with a false collectivist ideology.
I won’t spoil any of it for you but to say that what he’s talking about… it is the end result of progressivism. This is what any sane, rational person could see coming a mile away when any progressivist touted their ideology and its practical application. This is it pointed out, in the bluntest terms possible, why progressivism got exactly what it asked for—and why society paid the price for their idiocy.
Careful if you’re at work. It’s loaded with profanity.(He even used my term: snowglobes.)
I’m generally not a big Corolla fan, but he makes some very interesting, very cogent arguments……..arguments that I expect will not find much favor in a good number of circles……
……by the way, can’t say that I agree with the commentary about Corolla’s discussion, as “progressiveism” is not the sole, or even primary, cause of the entitlement mentality he references. It’s an element, but only an element; the causes are not confined to educational style or methodology; they represent a sea change in prevailing theories of child-rearing and parenting, and in societal attitudes.
