For me, that the Cold War began with the US wanting to stop Stalin's plans of imposing communism on the world. Did anybody else's curriculum portray Trotsky in a positive light? lmao it's funny to imagine the weirdos who write those textbooks were trots.
We covered the Russian Revolution very briefly and the teacher said that Rasputin by Boney M was a bad song
lol why would a teacher even waste time on that.... but that song slaps :xi-clap:
One of my history teachers showed us this song just because it's awesome and she wanted to make sure we knew about it
LMAO now that you mention it, if I had to recall the Russian Revolution from history class, it would be something like "There was this extremely horny dude named Rasputin who cucked the Tzar and everyone knew he was cucking the Tzar so they overthrew the government out of embarrassment."
