I was born and raised in the United States and my school's history books mentioned his name alongside Hitler, but didn't say why so I asked.
Excuse me? Alongside Hitler?? Im so sorry, the United State’s education system is fucked up. Well I guess it isn’t that surprising. You were also taught that WWII was won by the great and powerful USA.
yes i was and that's the context of why i asked my teacher about marx; it don't remember exact wording, but it was to the effect that evil people like hitler and marx had fooled europeans in the past into committing many atrocities so the united states created the un so that the united states wouldn't have to keep protecting the world by itself.
I had never realized how much propaganda they feed the children in the US...
the isreali children get it much worse
Definitely yeah they're on another level
