It would be nice if we had an education system that actually taught the history of forces protecting the wealth class and their property over the safety, needs, and rights of the common individual and masses.

Go to your board of education meetings. It doesn’t just have to be conservative fucks controlling things

I’m glad you were. I’m a teacher. I have no such experience, but there were books on the matter in my libraries as a kid, that’s how i found out and went down the path of finding out some of what I didn’t know what I didn’t know.
