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.

      Local — I should clarify that none of these were stipulated by the textbook (which was and still is centrally directed). It was the teacher’s own systematically lib & bootlicking interpretation. But at my school a lot of history teachers think and teach that way, and it didn’t seem there was anyone holding them accountable for what they said in the classroom
