From the “history books” that people are taught from today,

are Wilson and FDR shown as the fascists they were?

I’m saying it will have to be a far distant future when the truth is more important than the collectivist agenda.

I am back in college right now earning my Masters. I happen to be taking an advanced American history class right now and the professor is teaching wall to wall progressive politics and history.

The astounding thing is watching adults my age (35 and up) say things like “Wow, I had no idea America was such a bully and such an arrogant nation, it’s no wonder we are hated so much”, my blood pressure sky rockets in these classes but are mandatory to take so I have to suck it up, speak my mind, hope I don’t get F’s across the board, and remind people of all the things we have done for the good of the world and this country over the last 200 years.

not having read through a history book in years,just going by anecdotal stories i’ve read here and there i have to wonder if they teach anything at all about presidents not named Washington,Lincoln and Obama.

Of course not - they are treated as heros. Even the teachers haven't a clue. Or is that, especially the teachers?

IMO, our history books are just short of being as wrong as those used in the USSR.

Absolutely correct. The marxists have been writing the textbooks-not to mention running academia and the media-for decades. The fascism of Wilson and FDR is certainly not taught, though they both led the way in the huge expansion of government.
