Bill Gates's "Common Core" Promotes Wokefication and Bureaucratization of Schools

   I've become more skeptical of government in large part because I've come to believe that basically any new initiative will be ideologically captured by the left. The PC left is a relentless cult, and its totalitarian ideology contains within it principles that drive its relentless expansion, and the take-over of any institution it touches. Furthermore, bureaucracies etc. seem to naturally grow/expand/bloatify. If I were in charge of the country, and there were a push to start a new bureau/agency/whatever, I wouldn't give it the green light unless were basically something that we simply could not do without. Because it's going to turn into an institutional Jabba the Hutt...

   This may actually be how humanity comes to its end. An ideological virus has evolved that takes over social institutions--and social organization is arguably our greatest general type of achievement. And now we face the institutional analog of a massive, malicious computer virus. The contemporary left seems almost built for the Long March Through the Institutions. I'm concerned that this will never go away--that the battle to prevent the leftist takeover of institutions may never end. 

   Or, well...(lol...Orwell...)...that's the pessimistic thought that strikes me this morning, anyway. FWIW.
