One thing that was never emphasized enough in history class is that historical events keep happening as you get older and that it's quite stressful
@malcircuit the interesting thing to me throughout my education was the relentless focus on one part of US history - #revolutionary war to WW2.... like it was held in a box, and this was what "History" was
the ONLY reason why i was taught anything about post-#WW2 US, such as the #KoreanWar or #Vietnam, was bc i was in honors #History in high school. if you werent in that class, your 'history' lessons ended with the end of a very old war, and rarely if ever went beyond #US borders.
