Forced history lessons are just indoctrination and propaganda, since what you learn is dictated by the government. I wonder if there’s a single country on Earth that teaches e.g. the history of Israel-Palestine conflict in a way that even tries to approach objectivity.
- vacuity 1y agoAll history lessons are indoctrination at the very least. There's not some "objective history book" where people can just learn "objective history" without zero doubts. Even for things that are taught more or less "objectively", no one alive has firsthand experience of them, unless they are recent. The end result of teaching critical thinking is that you shouldn't trust anyone completely, not yourself, and not your teachers. It's just that adding the layer of government propaganda makes things worse.
