This has been the entirety of the "social studies" curriculum since the late 60s.
It starts with hating the conquerors, colonists, and pilgrims and building empathy with the troglodytes who previously inhabited the Americas for millennia but somehow failed to invent the wheel.
Then move on to the american revolution which was shown as good only because the british are the ultimate evil white people but at every turn emphasize what black people did. Of course repeat over and over again about how women and negros didn't get to vote and how terrible that was.
Then go to civil war and absolutely dehumanize and demonize the South and Confederacy.
Then reconstruction and all KKK all the time. Then hate for the industrialists and talking about how only government edicts could save the poor factory workers and miners.
Then WW2 and anything HOLOCAUST HOLOCAUST HOLOCAUST. Throw in the US was awful for using nukes.
Then the complete mythologization of "civil rights" hammering on saint saint and rosa parks, and anyone who mildly pushed back for any reason was an evil racist and repeat forever how "racist" is the absolute worst thing a person can be.
Of course repeat over and over again about how women and negros didn't get to vote and how terrible that was.
It's funny when you sit down and look at it. How many wars was the US really involved in before women the vote? I can only think of 1 that had major casaulties (civil war) then 2 of somewhat lesser casaulties (revolutionary war and war of 1812).
Women got the vote and then we had:
Stock market crash and great depression
ww1
ww2
korean war (fewer casaulties)
vietnam war (fewer casaulties but totally unecessary)
I remember there was a sentiment in my grandfathers generation that men at work would organize and get along, then you'd bring women in and guys would start getting loud and showing off and doing stupid reckless stuff. Wonder if it might translate to the national level.
