To be honest, there are too many sweeping generalizations and base rate fallacies for me to take this argument seriously. Despite my agreeing with some of the points, the author takes to EXTREMES i.e. "What was one of the early actions of the radicals when they first got power? Introducing sex education in the schools in Hungary, when the Bela Kun socialist government took power in 1919" and "They're trying to steal children's souls." These kinds of arguments only polarize the left and right even further which is counterproductive in a democratic system. Also, the imposing of a religious ultimatum in a country that separates church and state is unconstitutional.
""I look upon an increase of the power of the state with the greatest fear, because although while apparently doing good by minimizing exploitation, it does the greatest harm to mankind by destroying individuality, which lies at the root of all progress."
