There was a “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” marathon on Twitch last year and I watched as much of it as I could. His show was the driving force behind my movement towards Leftist ideologies. What a terrific human being he was. There really aren’t enough words to describe the positive influence that he had on so many lives.
I absolutely agree with you on all these points. It took me a long time for me to realize that leftism was the only path that could reconcile my ethics with my politics but I’m glad I found my way. If we could all just be maybe 5% as kind and empathetic as Mr. Rogers this world would look a lot different, don’t ya think?
“I once investigated for this blog if any of those factories where Mr. Rogers once showed kids how things were made were still in business. The results were just too depressing to share.”–jdg
