It's your efforts that are killing America.

I don't credit the coasts for anything good in this country.

[This is what is known as "projection". As if evangelical christians, right wing home schoolers, and churches, didn't write the book on "indoctrinating". ]
The left-wing does the exact same thing they claim the right-wing does as far as morals and morality go. The only difference is right-wing morals tend to be based more on religious principles than on the secular humanism that is the origin of left-wing morals. Despite frequent claims to the contrary, the left is just as guilty as "ramming their morals" down other people's throat as the right-wing is.

The left's version of moralizing includes diversity/multiculturalism, love for gays, faith in the ability of the state to solve problems, the evils of affluence and success, etc. Of course lefties won't see it this way, but as someone who is not liberal or conservative socially, the left and right use virtually the same tactics (guilt and shame) to try and ram through their desired morals".

One thing I have noticed is that west coast liberals don't really follow the news or issues too much. It's more about lifestyle than politics. I say that as a conservative.

there is no difference. Liberals instill liberal values in their children. Conservatives instill conservative values. the only difference is that YOU call one indoctrination because you disagree with it and you call the other values because you do agree with it.

as for the second half of your comment. How exactly would you even know that a school pushed it's political beliefs onto children and caused them to become activist?

lying to yourself is hilarious, saying you do not subscribe to conservatism while using language that say you do. My guess is you are one of those libertarians that look at the world as "Liberal, Conservative, Statist, Libertarian".

"lefties wont see it that way", You are right we dont. I have yet to see what is wrong with diversity and multiculturalism, I dont love gays(or hate them), i just choose to treat everyone the same and believe that we are all equal under the law. Yes, we believe that government should solve the problems that they are thought to have the ability to solve, again, what is the problem their ? And no one teaches the evils of affluence or success(more proof you are a right winger) because we simply dont believe it

If i were to type that You were anti diversity and multiculturalism, homophobic and anti-gay,taught that government can not solve a single problem and should be disbanded, and taught to vilify the poor, I bet you wouldnt see it that way either.
