Why control of the culture is so important

The cultural arbiters of Freedom-Hating Post-America have really outdone themselves this time.  NBC_TV's Law and Order SVU series is filming an episode in which Cybil Shephard plays a beloved Southern chef who guns down a hoodie-wearing black kid.

Their vulgarity and willingness to foment the unraveling of civil society knows no bounds.

Meanwhile, here's what's going on in Reality-Land: this and this.

Notice that the story from Washington state doesn't mention the suspects' race until the second-to-last paragraph.  The story from Oklahoma doesn't mention it at all.

Along with entertainment, education is, of course, a huge component of our culture.  Chuck Ross at The Daily Caller looks into just who the hate-crime-hoax perpetrators at Oberlin College were:

One of the two students removed from Oberlin College earlier this year for allegedly circulating virulently racist, anti-Jewish and anti-gay messages around campus  is an ardent leftist and committed supporter of President Barack Obama, The Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

Dylan Bleier, one of the two students, organized a voter registration drive on behalf of Obama before the 2008 election. That voter drive is still listed on the website for Organizing for Action, the non-profit group whose mission is to advance Obama’s agenda.

On his now-defunct LinkedIn page, Bleier noted that he was the founder and president of the Ithaca High School for Obama club. He also identified himself as a member of the Oberlin College Democrats.
Bleier also listed his participation in a group called Ithaca White Allies Against Structural Racism. He joined the group in May of this year, he reported. He said the group’s goal is to “eradicate structural racism in Tompkins County [NY], via forums discussing racism.”
On his Twitter account, which he protected after TheDCNF reached him on Tuesday, Bleier hailed Obama’s comments on George Zimmerman, tweeting: “Zimmerman is just the tip of the iceberg, a single highly visible symptom of the racist system that is ‘succeeding’ in the US.”
Bleier also describes himself on Twitter as an “atheist/pacifist/environmentalist/libertarian socialist/consequentialist.”

[A recent Obelin grad who knew both perpetrators] thinks that Bleier and Alden were likely behind all of the hateful graffiti that marred that campus during the string of incidents in February. He also said that Alden and Bleier had been suspended and removed from campus before the March 4 report of someone wearing KKK attire.

What would it take to bring the societal temperature back down?   That's not a rhetorical question.  I don't have the answer.
