The story from vcstar.com about the "Million Kid March" to fight global warming touched a nerve or two with me during the week.
We have all at some time tried to campaign against the exploitation of "man made" climate change in education, pointing out mistakes in "An Inconvenient Truth", sadly the message does not get home to the children who have teachers who support the "save the world from "man made" climate change philosophy. I can't help think that Alec Loorz who has taken up the fight to save the world from "man" using his site Kids vs. Global Warming, has been actively encouraged to do so and now elevated to promote the issue at a very high level.
The exploitation of children is nothing new, and from what I have understood about the children in Germany during the 1930's, "The Hitler Youth Movement" was not that dissimilar in their general perception of how "life should be", be it, it was the one held by Hitler.

This video from Pink Floyd "Another Brick in the Wall" "highlighted" the exploitation of children, and seems to have gone full circle, in that, it is now the turn of kids like Alec Loorz who are "brainwashed" along with his ever growing circle friends perception of the "man made" climate change philosophy.
Please support this site and help promote "Climate Realists".
We need your donation to help fight against the exploitation of children who have been educated to think that "Man Made Climate Change" is real!!
The next generation of children must not end up like the last!
They need to learn and understand why other generations have been misled about what has changed our climate in the past and more importantly, why and how our climate will change again in the future.

Pink Floyd's song did not 'promote' the brainwashing of children.
At the time the quality of UK education was declining due to the attacks on the grammar schools and the failure to put enough money into the other schools to make them truly vocational as had been promised.
Part of the decline was due to those of a statist persuasion steadily dismantling the relatively high quality education system of the immediate post war years on the inaccurate basis that it was elitist.
The Pink Floyd video and song was actually attacking that high quality education system (falsely) as part of that dismantling process.
If you want to create a more statist system one of the things to do first is to stop too much free thinking. The Pink Floyd song was a travesty at the time but is very apt nowadays.

It's interesting that at the time Pink Floyd thought they were working for freedom of the individual but all they did was play into the hands of what have become the modern statists (fascist or socialist if they support a large state they are all the same).
The work of the entire 60s generation has been subverted from within such that the current scenario is the opposite of what they professed to support at the time.
All authoritarian psychopaths start with a call for freedom. It is what they do.
Thus it is very difficult to separate genuine popular calls for freedom from cynical power grabs.
I think that what happens is that the psychopaths take advantage of a genuine popular surge of discontent and then redirect it.
