Reuben @yobigrube.bsky.social · 25/01/2025This is how they’ve successfully banned accurate teaching of American history here in the US. Any mentions of American atrocities are somehow “too much to bear” despite the victims of these things having had to endure far worse than simply learning the facts and contexts of a thing - they lived it. 020
