I suppose it depends what ideological leaning your history teacher & curriculum had. I really have no frame of reference to compare on this though, mine can only be characterized as "rich liberal globalist." I remember being exposed to a Howard Zinn take on WWI, where I think we were supposed to learn about the dangers of "revisionist history" but I think it went over my head because even as a liberal I was like "yeah this sounds about right."

Also as a funny aside I really liked my history teacher and often stayed after class to talk to him. I thought he was the most "liberal" (aka "left") person I had met. For context, I was raised thinking America was ok-ish but unfortunately filled with stupid fat warhungry people who bombed the middle east for oil, obviously I had no concept of how little say the people actually have. I asked him for his take on the war and whether it really was all for oil and he said "of course it's all about oil! but do you like using plastic? do you like driving cars? if america didn't control the oil supply we could kiss all that goodbye!" and for the first time I realized what a truly evil ideology that was.
