Analyses by various groups of American voters will be coming for many months, but something is already visible. For example, that one of the components of the Trump revolution was young men. All those who despair at the politicization of Western education and feel that the destruction is irreversible should remember this. Progressives have controlled American education for more than 50 years, and in a far more brutal way than we can even imagine. And lo and behold, there is a young generation voting for Trump! In Germany, again, a young generation voting for the AfD has grown up in a politically correct education system, and in France, again, young supporters of Le Pen.
Of course, the takeover of schools by progressives is bad. But it is not fatal.
Note also that none of these new American winners are flocking to children’s social networks and succumbing to the psychosis of “how to reach the young.” Because reaching the young doesn’t involve 60-year-olds acting like 20-year-olds. That’s called robbing the cradle, and that belongs in a whole other walk of life.
The young are reached by those who can build a piece of the world. One who can be seen to have work behind him, to have life satisfaction, determination and above all strength. Let us live our lives and do our work well. That is the best recipe for reaching the next generation.
