I agree, but the reality is that most of those born after 1975 don't know or appreciate the gravity of the Cold War, and that the world was at the brink more times than we really know because of it. Part of the reason that don't know is because the left has worked diligently to keep it that way.
It's not by accident that people use references to Hitler and Nazis to denigrate their opposition, but seldom if ever use the name Stalin or the term Communist in this manner. Both Hitler and Stalin were sociopathic dictators responsible for an unimaginable number of deaths and cruelty. But we only hear about Hitler. Any objective unbiased open-minded educational system would teach about both, and their negative impacts on the world, similarly. But they don't. Teaching ‘selective history’ is not much different, if at all, from indoctrination.
I agree, and I’d toss in a few more names with those.
And I’d remind the kids Communism/Socialism, all you need to know about those two ideologies.
We’re far more Socialist than I like.
