    “The education of all children, from the moment that they can get along without a mother's care, shall be in state institutions.” - Friedrich Engels (The Principles of Communism)

    “Give me four years to teach the children,” asserted Lenin, “and the seed I have sown shall never be uprooted.”

    - Vladimir Lenin.

    To be fair, the average American is already horrifically ignorant and their consent is more easily manufactured by terrible people with terrible ideas that this merely offering "Hitler Youth" free resources to a "Fox News" culture that has already successfully cemented their attitudes, beliefs, and values in 100M+ American minds by the post-Nixon affiliated media activists and investors. If any left-leaning organization had done this, there would be Red Scare show trials and calls to execute communists. I don't think there's any fixing America's broken, footgunning ignorance with meaningful education investment of expertise, time, effort, and/or money because a large fraction are proud of it and want to believe "alternative facts" than deal honestly with others or reality. Can lead a horse to water ...

    Grifters profiting on insanity and collapse.

      Physics has nothing to say about social systems. Leave the last sentence out, it weakens your argument.

      Imagine being so far right-pilled that "respect others" and "don't be a dick" are fighting words

        Where was that mentality during the woke era of cancel culture mobs?
