ve been an angry man since the age of sixteen. That was when I read Lloyd deMause’s newly-published The History of Childhood, an inquest into the realities of growing up that minced no words about society’s ingrained habit of victimizing children to serve the implacable ends of adults. As I absorbed deMause’s relentless account of the cruelty inflicted on children in the world’s most “advanced” civilizations, I swore an angry oath to myself that I would never acquiesce in the deliberate harm of little kids, no matter how respectable their abusers might claim to be. So I’m not going to pull any punches about the systematic child abuse being orchestrated, as I write, by a phalanx of America’s most “respectable” politicians, pundits and self-styled educators. Child abuse? Yes, that’s what I said: and I’m talking about the concerted campaign to keep the United States school system shuttered in honor of the Great God Corona – a cynical bid to smother the free instincts in a whole generation of children before they’re even old enough to know how deeply they’ve been violated. As if that weren’t ugly enough, the propagandists who want to take away our kids’ education are using emotional blackmail to do it, terrorizing 74 million American children with the slander that they’re as poisonous as Rappaccini’s daughter – that the moment they cross the threshold of a school building they will have condemned their teachers, and probably their parents, to an early and painful death. Child abuse? That’s almost too mild a name for it. What is it going to take, I wonder, to make the proverbial Man in the Street as angry as I am about this? If I could, I’d try to shout into his face some measure of his inconsistency. Have you been gnashing your teeth over the alleged crimes of Jeffrey Epstein, Mr. Street? What do you say to a crew of governors-turned-dictators who hold millions of American children captive in their own homes, polluting their minds with fear porn? Does it bother you when the minions of President Donald Trump throw helpless children into the arms of traffickers <https://zcomm.org/znetarticle/president-trump-child-trafficker-in-chief/> south of the border as a matter of “immigration policy”? How do you feel, then, about a “health” policy that deprives all our children of a normal education? You’ve heard tell of irresponsible organizations tainting social media with “misinformation,” haven’t you? Do you mind the idea of your own kids being manipulated 24/7 through a computer screen by the same folks who planted microphones <https://www.popularmechanics.com/technology/security/a26448907/google-nest-hidden-microphone/> in a home “security” system and have already handed over your private information <https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/19/technology/facebook-cambridge-analytica-explained.html> to political gangsters like Cambridge Analytica? Or maybe you’re upset with Israeli soldiers who hide stun grenades where they can hurt unsuspecting youngsters <https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/.premium-israeli-soldiers-placed-explosive-devices-in-west-bank-village-for-deterrence-1.9101393> in a West Bank village? If so, Mr. Street, what about people who hang the calumny of being walking death-traps like a sword of Damocles above the heads of millions of American pre-teens? Are you angry yet? Mainstream pundits, of course, assure us that all of this is really a saintly effort to protect the young.
