He was writing about the civil rights movement, and accurately analysed COINTELPRO and other government repression. The teacher thought it was unfair characterization. So yeah, highschool's are totally hubs of left wing indoctrination.

    Because of this post I wanted a chance to share an excerpt from the wonderful government class that I took in highschool.

    Overall view of socialism most times a state tries to impose socialism, individual liberty is eroded and poverty prevails Socialism as a system does not believe in private property rights, they don’t believe people should get ahead via hard work “They don’t want people to own the fruits of their labor”

    As you so rightfully pointed out in this post, our high schools do nothing but indoctrinate your children to accept communism.

        It's even dumber than that. They view capital investment as the highest form of "labour".

          Yeah the teacher was a real libertarian crank.
          "State run socialism requires legalized theft and determines the winners and losers through taxation and wealth redistribution "

          You can tell he was extra smart since he said taxation is theft but with more words. Great "notes" that we had to write.
