Have the nutters taken over? You could easily think so when you read This article covers the story in yesterday's Daily Mail. If children are allowed to get away with taking themselves out of school to protest on this issue then how long before it becomes alright to protest about other issues? If teachers, including headteachers are encouraging this, or simply facilitating it then there is something radically wrong with our culture.
"..something is wrong with our culture."

Evan Sayet describes it perfectly in this talk. While he is referring there to American Democrats, it also applies to European Liberals, as he also says. He calls the philosophy "Modern Liberalism," but the more appropriate term, based on his description of it, is "Post Modernism."
He first describes some of the symptoms (the "what"), then at about 5:33 he tells us the "why" of their irrational behavior.
It's a deep wound we've allowed Leftists to inflict upon us. It is, IMO, the greatest threat to our survival, since it undermines everything. The family, education, social structure, governance, science, ...you name it, and the adherents of Post Modernism pervert it.
THAT is what is wrong, and what needs to be fixed. And it is a very tall order.
