Nah. It's more attempts at indoctrination into their idealized system. When a professor takes a whole class to explain how great communism but never says anything about its draw backs, it no longer is about expanding horizons.

1: consider how often that actually happens.

2: consider how American high schools teach about free market capitalism and the evils of communism extensively.

3: understand that you're fighting a Strawman.

That's a shame. You'd figure learning about something would teach you something about something.

It's an American thing. You should see the scale for Trump and Clinton supporters, they had to reinvent the whole system to account for these fascinating new levels of stupidity.

How many millions of people voted for Trump? A nation of morons.

Trump is the best Presidential candidate in decades. But that's just my opinion.

You only say that it's your opinion because it's so estranged from any semblance of fact.

Granted it's anecdotal, but from the what I've been told, it's quite common

My entire high school experience was just the opposite

Social media makes it stupid easy to Strawman the other side. Don't buy into the all liberals are dumb hype and I won't buy into the all conservatives are racist hype, mkay?

As per your high school, explain what you mean by opposite.

@Blank - Almost every single person in the Western World has the opposite experience dude, it's completely reasonable to make that comment.

Absolutely not. They don't teach about the downfalls of capitalism in economics (not even in AP economics, which are supposed to be an equivalent to the dirty commie college experience) and high school American history is simply steeped in anti communist rhetoric. Seriously, look curriculum standards.



My sister saw this bull**** in two different classes.

Zhanteimi 11-26-2016 08:08 PM

Does AP economics class favor capitalism because it works?

I had a teacher go on a long rant about how Russia would of been a rich and prosperous country if America had not gone on a a crusade against it. And a lot of stuff along those lines.
