Another Classic Strawman Exercise

Another classic strawman exercise brought to you by the good leftists at Lew Rockwell.com.

Hmmmmm... the introduction of rule of law is thought of as world dominion... I am so glad that we didn't think this way after WWII with Germany and Japan and you know that whole cold war thing. BTW, since we have military stationed in both Germany and Japan should we start to think about an exit strategy.

"Ideology is important, as Robert Higgs suggests. Ideology plays into the inculcation of values in schools and elsewhere that builds a foundation for the drive to dominate. When people willingly give up their treasure, their lives, and the lives of their children for the cause of domination, we know that ideology is playing an important role."

Ideology influences people..... How remarkable? I would never had thunk that. Ideas can influence people, wow, what a super genius. BTW kids gather round, this paragraph is an excellent use of a transfer fallacy. The writer of this propaganda wants us to look at ideas, values, and schools as bad because he has pinned these to world domination.

One only wonders what type of mind would think this propaganda post-worthy. Hint to poster: Sell the snake oil, don't drink it.

Toodles,

Worthy and picture perfect besides.


Pooh

Rockwell leftist????

Not ALL ideas and values promote domination, nor did he say that(YOU did). He is saying the government schools do that. Don't like to see yourself shown up as a brainwasher of children? I wouldn't either. Just keep telling yourself what a "hero" you are, "educating" young minds. Hint: Calling Rockwell leftist just shows how clueless you are, Mr Obvious.
