The essay brings to mind Obama and his cult of community activism/activists, and all that has flowed from it.

As an evangelical christianity survivor, I am familiar with the tactics that all cults use to recruit and retain their members ... from love-bombing, to 'the evil out there', to "we are the protective fold", to separation from parents/family who question it, etc ... in short the whole "Problem-Reaction-Solution" thing used at all levels in society by those thirsty for power over others - ie: psychos.

I am seriously concerned for my seven grand-children (aged 2-9) who are entering the school-indoctrination system. At least they're not in America but it's coming to Europe. As a parent and grand-parent the issue outlined in the article above is what keeps me awake at night. I hope I can rise to the challenge and find the right words to say in the right way at the right time. This article will help me; thank you.
