No, Marxism cancels the past. It deconstructs it. It's only concern with it is an ideological one. As a parody of science it must eschew ontology. It cannot comprehend the individual nor forbear a civilization of individuals. It must negate them both intellectually and physically. All are "clockworks" in the unfolding dialectic of history.

Unwittingly you have used the parlance of Marxism yourself without knowing it - parlance of moral relativism. That is just the point

There are only so many hours in a day. Teachers have to select what to teach in those hours. The very selection of what to teach, no matter what is chosen, is ideological.

Unwittingly you have used the parlance of Marxism yourself without knowing it - parlance of moral relativism. That is just the point.

And you claim that one moral position is better than another, not only for yourself but for all, and you want to teach that (which is fine), yet refuse to see that as a form of indoctrination.
