Proof that they’re lying to us at school.

Yeah they lie a lot of school. When I was in high school they was like America won every war. It just so happens my World History teacher was German. She said all the vile shit America did how hitler basically copied that tortue chamber from America.

 

I didn't know this so the school couldn't lie to me. Because they never taught this, in the first place.

You do know, American and German torture chambers are kindergarten level compared to the tools that the Catholic/Christian belief created because Christianity say, "Sin can be purified through pain. Persevere, lost lamb."

 

Well I mean if you're talking about American history aren't you guys glossing over the entirety of your first nations? :/

 

I know just talking about American school system. They mostly teach propaganda.

 

Doesn't every country have biased school systems? I thought that was the point of having public education with social studies curriculums.

 

Even here in Europe, I still hear nasty tales about the local conversion process. The slaughter and torture of entire towns to make their neighbors convert, things like that. Doesn't come close to some of the stuff I've heard from the native peoples over in the States, though. I can't imagine living with the trauma of knowing what happened to your grandparents after shit like that.

Very much this.

 

In my time in school my class just had to be the guinea pigs for a new program that was written by two english professors. We never even mentioned some of the major historical events like the 30 year war or even the hundred year which both still effects the relationship between countries nowadays centuries after. Instead we learned about completely useless nonsense.

 

Theres actually a famous book that many teachers recommend titled Lies My Teacher Told Me

 

So, how exactly did they lie?
They just didn't teach you about it so it means they lied?
There's a lot of things you're not taught at schools.

(I'm not American or European so would be weirder if it was taught at our schools. Only things that matter on a global scale are taught to us here other than the detailed history of our own country.)

 

Edication can be spotty, a Californian said that 15 years ago his highschool history textbook ends at the start of Jimmy Carter's presidency.

 

Never heard of it, my history lessons didn't cover any of that. But then school curriculum was so shitty in my country that we didn't manage to cover WW1 and further in school due to lack of time. We barely approached 1918 history when I ended school. So my 1918-2000 knowledge is pretty lacking aside from what I researched myself if needed.

Reminds me of that disgusting Theresa,

 

I'm African so the only History we cared about was Apartheid, the French revolution and the world wars.

 

I schooled in England.

 

Will admit we didn't cover the whiskey rebellion in my shitty Florida school, but red summer got covered in connection with going over mlk and such. Sort of a glimpse into the true terror they were standing up to I guess.

If we went over every mass murder and riot/crime syndicate we'd have 4 doctorates before we left highschool.

Also go searching and find all the other stuff you didn't get taught about around the world. I'll see you in about 40 years in my PM's after I forgot I asked you to do this.

 

So the did not teach you about the great London beer flood at school?
What about the emu war?
The war of the bucket?
The football war?
The sovjet breeding program with the goal of creating human gorrila/chimpanzee (can't remember with one) to act as elite soldiers, by combining human intelegence with the apes strenght?

 

No.
No.
No. But I saw on YouTube.
No.
No. Ditto

 

they taught my about congo but not about the other
probably because it was not european and my school had a focus on european history

and every country over a century old has that kind of skeletons in their closets
the only difference is how much they try to hide it

 

my history teachers were mostly focused on the civil war up until wwII (they didn't mention anything past that). they were also very one-sided when it came to the US expansion and left out almost all of the first nations and what was done to them. I just happen to have a teacher in my junior year who was half Anishinaabe and he really opened everyone's eyes to what happened...sadly, he eventually got fired for not teaching to the tests. tests are way more important than truths in public school.

 

all of that sounds pretty damn interesting.

 

Why would school teach about a few hundred drunkards getting pissed because they have to pay for their homemade moonshine?
