Socialists don't teach, they indoctrinate. Teaching means allowing the student to follow the logical progression to conclusion and make their own decisions based on that process.

IOW, conservatism means utilizing critical thinking. Why do that when you can just roll over and let the nanny state provide for you without any risk or hope of advancement?

Socialists do teach. They lay the groundwork in their worldview and restrict critical thinking. This way they induce people to accept their ideology

They also indoctrinate when those people are ready.

If conservatives taught history and logic, socialism would gain no traction. Now socialism, once a fringe, is almost the majority.
