What Are the Five Biggest Lies That Are Officially Taught to School Students in the United States of America?
Seems to me that this is one of them.
Anything in Howard Zinn's book.
1. The Civil War was about/because of slavery.
2. FDR got us out of the Great Depression with the New Deal.
3. That Senator McCarthy was paranoid and there weren’t a bunch of socialists and communists in government - especially the State Department, as well as in Hollywood.
4. That states ever agreed to bind themselves forever when they ratified the Constitution and may not unilaterally secede.
5. That America’s origin is traceable to a bunch of religious fanatics landing up in New England (Jamestown preceded it for several years and was founded for that most American of motives.....MAKING MONEY).
Socialism
Demoncats are good
Up is down
Evil is good
Boys are girls and girls are boys
