The importance of indoctrinating children in the ideology of the indoctrinators is so that ideology is felt by the indoctrinated in adulthood as common sense or the ordinary social logic. They don’t even know it’s ideology because it has been put in their heads before they developed abstract and critical thinking. It feels intuitive to them.
Inoculating in the masses the social logic of the indoctrinators is a major part of perpetuating the established hegemony. To be sure, some will escape the indoctrination. But many will not. They will carry the frame that keeps them in darkness their entire lives because early childhood indoctrination structured their cognitive and emotional response with deep-seated assumptions and truisms.
This is why progressives started the long march through the institutions a century ago: to colonize the spaces where they could get easy and exclusive access to the children—doctor’s offices, schools, television programming. Progressives were especially eager to infiltrate the public education system. It’s why public school classrooms are today festooned with the signifiers and symbology of woke progressive ideology.
I’m not here warning you that they’re after your kids. I’m here telling you that they’ve already got them.
