My mom and I are constantly on the precipice of cutting ties. She contends that it's my liberal college professors that brainwashed me, whereas I contend that it was she who taught me to care about other people, to share, to accept others—she just didn't mean for me to believe any of it after I turned 18 I guess.
So the latest narrative being pushed by the right is that the liberal brainwashing actually starts in elementary school with unamerican teaching.
To the right, the only teacher above suspicion is named coach.
Yeah, the one in the showers with the students. Certainly has shades of trump to it.

He's teaching a valuable lesson. Listen, kid, in the real world, you're either going to be the bully or be bullied, You either join me in picking on that sissy or I'm going after you next.

Expect all of the Republicans to come around to this, Machiavellian to the core, especially those who see Trump losing and the possibility that they could lose the Senate.

It will certainly embolden the left flank of the Democrats to pressure the centrists. All of Biden's talk about how he work with Republicans should be apparent as nonsense even to him. It wasn't just about Obama being black—it's a slo-mo coup.

I saw people protesting child sex trafficking recently and instead of thinking, "I'm with you on that! Child sex trafficking is bad", I thought "Ah, that must be a bunch of QAnon idiots."
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
