More Gen Z Slang

And this ^ BS came from where? Generation after generation have use 'code' or 'phrases' to mean different things. Like 'like', 'cool', 'groovy', 'hip', 'snarky', 'square', and I could go on. I seriously doubt that it is anything Marxist involved

OK, I'll spell it out for you. 100 years ago, a man's sons followed in their fathers footsteps, or at least were subject to their fathers influence in a way that greatly exceeds how fathers can influence their sons today.
As Marxists increased their power and influence with the printing presses, radio stations, teevee and now internet, our culture has changed for the worse. First feminism, then race-mixing, then homosexuality and now transgender.
You may think all this happened by accident, that it was just a normal chain of events. I say that "the end result reveals the original intention".
Case in point: The hippie drug movement of the 60's. This was the first really major counter-culture. It was instrumental in popularizing many of the Marxist agendas that we have today.
Mass media, Hollywood and academia took us from square dancing to rap music degeneracy in less than a century.

I was in college when the hippie movement came about. I still followed Dad.

My sons were in the Millenial degenerate era and they also turned out OK.

I agree that social media and hollywood are causes of our downfall, but academia is the biggest threat of all. BUTTTT, the ROOT cause starts in Washington. If you can turn our youth into morons and give them enough freebees, you can steer their vote and thus be in power forever.

Nevertheless, 100 years ago kids had a father that could be looked up to, and a family that steered them. Not so today. So maybe the real root cause is the breakdown of the family.

No worries, though. When we fully become a third world country our speech will be regulated.

Very little 'slang' when I was growing up. Dad was a firm believer is using correct language. Unfortunately, by the time I was 14-15 cussing had become a problem and I caught many blindside wallops for using profanity.

Yes it's incremental and yes Washington DC has promoted Marxism. But if you think that the power of politicians trumps the power of information control, think about this;
Let's say you are a politician in Washington DC. You strove to that position because you value social position above everything. Who are your supervisors? Do you think the American public is your supervisor? They hear practically nothing about you that isn't filtered through the hands of the information controllers. If you have a weakness of any kind, be it sex, greed, past history, gambling you name it, they will find it and when they do they own you. And even if you have no such weakness, they will praise politicians you run against and declare them front runners and ridicule everything you say. They have the power of suggestion, the power of scrutiny, the power of omission, the power of censorship and the power of smear. It may not give them 100% control, but they have everything slanted in their favor 24 hours a day 365 days a year.
So who really supervises politicians? Who controls America?

Seriously, you need to loosen your hat band or remove your tin foil hat. It Is much too tight. Everything in life is not a Marxist or government plot to control something or someone.
