What one book contains the most valuable lessons on government that every citizen of the country should become familiar with? The Federalist Papers? Plato’s Democracy? Seems to me that some of this stuff would be a lot more valuable than Romeo and Juliet or anne frankly’s diary or whatever passes for a civics class these days

I can't remember totally, it's been a long time. I'm sure it was counter to the teachers point. I never got along with English teachers. Honestly, with a few exceptions I never got along with female teachers if I really think of it. I do remember not discussing communism at all, I wasn't aware of much of anything about communism until I was older. We had a lot of "plight of the negro" teaching in those days, but less than a decade after the fall of the Soviet Union it wasn't quite allowed yet for them to openly preach communism.
Far too many female teachers view boys as defective girls.
Fewer male teachers seem to, but nowadays it's still the majority.
Yeah, I reflect on my own life and I fully believe that women's need to "fix" boys is a huge factor in the problems with them today. As a lot of us here, I wasn't the most fitting in normal kid, women were always trying to push me to do some magic thing to be normal or they'd use some BS term "come out of your shell" or what not.
I was also very lucky to have a lot of really good male influences and I recall that with few-to-none of them. They treated me with respect, even as a weird little kid.
