I read a good portion of Trump’s “1776 Report” which is essentially his plan to modify the US education system on how American history is taught and geez is it awful. There’s a telling amount of justifications for slavery and conservative revisionist history in it.
its interesting that they left out any mention of Sally Hemings in the Jefferson section or Washington’s dodging of abolition laws and using legal loopholes to avoiding freeing his slaves in Philadelphia.
Many of the Founding Fathers owned slaves and benefited greatly from slavery as institution. Regardless of whatever they said in their personal letters, the fact of the matter is that these men got rich off of human trafficking and enslavement.
Gosh we’re lucky this man is hopefully going out of office in a couple days. His “patriotic education” would have been a disaster.
“And when families pray together, they acknowledge together the providence of the Almighty God who gave them their sacred liberty.”
The section on communism is a fun one.
“In the end, America won because the Soviet Union was built upon a lie.”




yeehaw
“In the end, America won because the Soviet Union was built upon a lie.”






So in short, it’s bad. Like, we really dodged a bullet.
Ugh I need to stop reading this. The more I read the worse it gets.
