21ST CENTURY QUESTIONS: Lyme Disease Is Spreading Fast. Why Isn’t There a Vaccine? “There used to be one, but it was taken off the market more than 15 years ago. And there’s only one new vaccine candidate in the pipeline.” Result: “You have a vaccine that works, you know it works, you know the disease is prevalent, but there’s no vaccine on the market, except for dogs.”

THE LEFT IS ACTUALLY AFRAID OF JORDAN PETERSON BECAUSE HE’S LEADING A REVOLT AGAINST THEIR CORRUPTION:

It is not that there is no home to go to, either. Western history is rich with sustenance for mind and soul. Its longevity, richness, and vibrance are proof enough of that. It is that the people who consider themselves our leaders now deliberately strip America’s young of their roots.

Peterson and many others note rightly that most of our universities, and the other cultural institutions they gatekeep such as media and public schools, are anti-education, anti-culture, and anti-American. They gain power by separating people, by not only refusing to cultivate the capacity for self-government, but also actively cultivating intellectual, economic, and spiritual dependency.

This is why, as Flanagan has noticed, a worthy curriculum, an apprenticeship in the deepest wisdom of our heritage, is typically no longer delivered through the West’s “leading” institutions. To gain any real competence, most people must self-educate through a growing “parallel culture of ideas.” Where have we heard this parallelism language before? Among the anti-Communists of Eastern Europe, for one.
