The Poop Generation

[From article]
Ayn Rand wrote that a nation’s culture is the sum of the intellectual achievements of individual men, which their fellow citizens have accepted in whole or in part, and which have influenced the nation’s way of life. Poo.

America today is increasingly anti-freedom, anti-truth, anti-ideas, anti-capitalsim – anti-reason. A nation built on a morality of reason has all but abandoned its foundational principles. Public schools and academia produce zombies – goose-steppers like the Hitler Youth – who are militant and violent in their imposition of the leftist/Islamic agenda. And when they do it, they congratulate themselves about how they have stood up against “fascism” and “intolerance,” when the intolerant fascists are they themselves. Intellectually, young Americans are the most docile conformists, no matter how vocally and self-righteously they declare themselves free.
[. . .]
The culture is ugly. The music is ugly, violent, and misogynistic. Every crime drama and suspense series is rife with the most unimaginable gore. Game of Thrones, Law and Order (Sex Crimes), American Horror Story – they’re all devoid of humanity and morality. Devoid of goodness. It’s a cultural rout. It’s not that the line between good and evil has been blurred – it’s nonexistent. We are living in a cultural free-for-all, or more accurately, a free fall.
Pain, blame, victimhood are the ideals.
[. . .]
What better icon for such a culture of terror than a pile of dung with a smiley face? It’s not just on phones; it’s on jewelry and shoes at Bloomingdales and Bergdorf Goodman. A ring featuring this image goes for $500, shoes for $340. It’s beloved.
A culture that would love such a thing is incapable of true humanity and love. Hollywood is incapable of writing or producing a Casablanca.
[. . .]
Logic and facts are scorned and derided; myths (global warning, “Islamophobia”) and feelings are held up as fact and science.
[. . .]
The left has worked so hard to make us miserable, and has succeeded.
[. . .]
Hollywood, once a force for good, morality, love and romance, is now a force for evil, degradation, and cultural rape, cloaked in self-righteousness.
