A lot of people still don’t understand the true value of the 1st Amendment. Think of it this way. Why did the Nazis burn books? It was because they feared having to win ideological battles. If they silenced all of the other options, they could retain power by default.
When you look at it that way, which modern political movement in the U.S. seems the most Nazi-like?
There are three big sections of the modern left that show the most aggressive and oppressive attitudes in modern politics: Hollywood, mainstream media and college campuses. Educated adults can do pretty well resisting the first two, but impressionable, young, college kids are really struggling with that third section.
Thankfully, there are groups like Campus Reform that at least push back. In this video, they talk to college kids about the militant, threatening nature of campus leftism. The topic is discussing liberal groups on campus, that are threatening any incoming freshman who joins the conservative club.
The leftists on campus can’t handle ideological challenges. They have to silence the opposition. It’s the same reason Nazis burned books.
This video will frighten you, but you have to know what’s happening. It also might encourage you to see that even liberally-minded youngsters can understand why this is a problem. Take a look.
