Excellent article, thank you.

The problem is that the Left has decided that culture is now part of the educational process. And that there is a "good" culture (theirs) and a "bad" one (traditional norms to a large extent). They see education as the most effective tool to changing our culture, which is their number one goal.

The Right, on the other hand, views education as objective. It should teach skills and be unbiased. Let people decide, and leave culture to the centuries of traditions that individual families have built. Those things used to be sacred. As Americans we respected pluralism, were proud of it, in fact. The Left has now decided that those things can be bigoted, and they can't help but try to "fix it."

The anger comes from the Right feeling violated that other adults are attempting to change their own culture by back-dooring their children to be someone that reflects the Left's values, and not the Right. It's a fundamental intrusion into basic family rights and a violation of privacy and freedom.

I see that as why this is so heated, yet the Left doesn't understand it. They're just trying to "show us tolerance and what's right" after all. They think the Right is angry because it is bigoted or intolerant, when it's truthfully the intrusion that's driving it. Most people on the Right have a "live and let live" philosophy. Yes, there are extremes, but that exists on both sides.

In trying to change society, the Left is making cultural choices for your family, and that's infuriating. They are attempting to take away our essence, and that's a dangerous thing to try to do to someone.
