American education really skims over everything post WW2. Can’t pay attention to things that aren’t taught. What little that is covered, is done so I’m the last few weeks of senior year when everyone already knows that they’ve graduated.
Nor does history class delve into how things felt at the time. It’s all abstracted dates and events.
So maybe lay off the flimsy insults and remember that not everyone has the same experiences as you.
Spoken like someone that also didn’t pay attention in class.
