The ascendance of an authoritarian President is a direct consequence of our failure to teach generations of Americans real civics and history. If you don’t learn the Bill of Rights, you don’t know to be appalled when it’s under attack.

Are you using the word “authoritarian” in his leadership style and personal demeanor? If you mean authoritarian to be dictatorial then it is totally different. Please explain something from the Bill if Rights you have lost.

My friend, govt schools were not designed to help kids become great thinkers and doers. It was designed to train them to become workers for giant corporations. Read the life Work of @realjohngatto yet? "The Underground History of American Education"

I’d rather be poor with knowledge than rich and stupid. With knowledge, I won’t be poor very long! But if I’m stupid I won’t have money for long! My elders would always say, “...You don’t get to be old AND stupid!”

The greed, corruption & prejudice that we tolerate & nurture within our relationships, culture & politics has created a moment of decision; we must listen to, address & heal our issues of the heart or innocents will continue to be needlessly imprisoned, sickened, harmed & killed.

Not only do you need to take your own advice. But you need a dictionary to look up the word "authoritarian".

👏🏻agreed, but that is only part of it. Is also what we learn at home in terms of values , responsibility, consequences. If I learned the other is guilty of everything that happen to me, I will not be able to differentiate either.

It was a failure of the corrupt and criminal left to hold down the will of the people. That’s all. Read the Memo today. Horrific corruption!
