@AesopFan:I wonder if its timeless message of the fight between Good and Evil is still being read? Disney made it into a movie in 2018, starring Oprah Winfrey as Mrs. Which and with most of the main characters converted to African-Americans.

@ Wendy >”I’d hope her toddler did well to escape a pre-school that would turn him down because of his mother’s impure politics.”

I hope she found a better one (more conservative) and not just another Woke one willing to take him on for indoctrination.

@ Philip > “a society that enforced expressions of happiness;”

Reminded me of “A Wrinkle in Time,” where the people of a world covered in Darkness are under control of a telepathic Evil Being who doesn’t allow dissent, and IIRC that includes not being happy.

I wonder if its timeless message of the fight between Good and Evil is still being read? The books have been in print continuously since publication in 1963 (it was rejected by 23-60 publishers, L’Engle gave different accounts). Probably not being assigned in the Woke schools.

I’d hope her toddler did well to escape a pre-school that would turn him down because of his mother’s impure politics. Maybe he now has a slightly more sensible mother to raise him, too.

“… many Democrats are still very energized to vote against the GOP.” The question of the day is, “Why?”

“What the public craves more than anything is authenticity.”
She still talks like a liberal. Liberals talk in abstractions and act as if those abstractions are real.

The Dems will not moderate as they did previously because they successfully changed and polarized the culture. Breitbart was correct: politics is downstream from culture, and the normie-but-liberal Democrats have mostly vanished or been replaced by radical children and grandchildren.

I see this is Jewish American circles – there was always a red-diaper contingent, but many liberal-minded, patriotic, family-oriented 60s liberals were shocked to see how feminism wrecked their children’s families, and now are shocked to discover their grandkids are anti-American Marxists…

I struggle to imagine what a political audience chanting "Joy, Joy, Joy" would seem like. It is not a pleasant image. There was an episode of Doctor Who featuring Sylvester McCoy involving a society that enforced expressions of happiness; it reminds me somewhat of that. Creepy.
