"Triggered"? LOL... so now we're gonna extend the meaning of "triggered" because you were insulted by a joke?
What we've come to know as being triggered as it relates to politics has been an angry, hostile reaction toward something you didn't like to hear, or was offended by. I was not offended by what you said. Being triggered requires no wit. Discovering that you left yourself wide open for a joke does.
No doubt there are events omitted in history books that places this country and some of its people in a negative light, and there is nothing wrong learning about these events, as long as you are not swayed by the fact that this nation is and always has been the greatest on the planet ...reasons too numerous to list here.
Sadly, what's being taught today is just the opposite. Not exactly sure what your book describes but it may be the blueprint for the American classroom today.
America is rotten, illegitimately founded. It's the reason why third world nations exist. Those great Americans? OMG they were slave owners!!!...blah, blah. Very little that is positive.
Maybe those indoctrinated into believing this is a horrible country will someday pick up a book and like you will be depressed reading about this countries goodness that they were never taught in school.
That summarizes your ignorance right there. Blind cheerleading. So were we the greatest on the planet during the civil war, post revolution, we were so great when "won" the war of 1812? The answer is no. I'm proud of my country and gave it 6+ years of my life, but there is always room for improvement. Cheering "this nation is and always has been the greatest on the planet" doesn't make it true.
It's dated, but...

No, what has been exposed as ignorance is that gem right there.
No one is saying America is without fault, there is plenty of that, regardless, it still remains the greatest nation that ever existed.
You obviously are ignorant of the fact Americans are the most charitable, giving people in the world, and that our government is always the first to respond and largest contributor to national disasters around the world. Incidentally my wife and a team of doctors travelled to Columbia SA a couple years ago to perform free surgery on disfigured children paying their own way.
There is no "Italian Dream", or German Dream...there is only the American Dream. a waiting list of foreigners wanting to emigrate here LEGALLY for the opportunity of a better life this country affords them.
So, if this country is no longer great, why don't you ignorant fucksticks go to down to the border and warn the illegals that America is really not the place you want to be.
Since you made no mention, you are apparently ignorant of the fact that US involvement in WWII saved the world from Nazi Gemany, and because of US presence South Korea remains a sovereign nation not under Communist control.
You are ignorant of the fact that Industrial Revolution started in England and rapidly spread here. The spirit of entrepreneurship and American ingenuity gave rise to medical advances, the automobile industry, the steel industry, electronics, agriculture etc. that the rest of the world benefited from.
I could sit here and think of another dozen examples, but I've spent enough time wasted on you.
Tell yourself otherwise, but you are also ignorant of the fact that people have you on ignore because they don't deal in ignorance, nothing else.

I'll quote it again.
"this nation is and always has been the greatest on the planet"
This is an objectively false statement. If can't even admit that, then you might be in a cult. You can continue to build and burn your strawman. The rest of your rant has nothing to do with anything I said and doesn't represent me.

Brilliant.' You're going to cherry pick an opinion you disagree with and hang your hat on that.. after I rub your nose into all the reasons that help back up my opinion.
And didn't I tell you that America is by no means perfect and has had it's share of mistakes? Pay attention.
I feel like I'm debating a little kid here

It's really amazing that all trump humpers are incapable of admitting a mistake. It explains why they are still in the cult. Getting out would be admitting they were wrong.

I havea house full of books. I also read to my kids every night and, consequently, they are among the top 1% of readers in the state according to their school assessments. When I'm driving, which is a lot, I tend to use the libby app to listen to audiobooks. So...yeah.
