The Real Threat To Education Is Not A ‘Fascist’ Trump Presidency

Fearmongering about ‘fascism’ is designed to distract Americans from recognizing the ideological poison that has infected our education system.

The left is sounding the alarm on what a second Trump presidency would mean for America’s educational system: fascism.  

“Now and in the past, schools and universities are and have been central targets of fascism. Attacks on education, including political works deemed obscene, are, to use a cliché, canaries in the fascist coal mine,” writes Jason Stanley, the Jacob Urowsky professor of philosophy at Yale University, in a recent article for The New Republic titled “The End of Civic Compassion: On Education in a Fascist America.”
