When I was in the third grade, I had a teacher tell me it was okay we pushed the natives off the land because we made more efficient use of it, and could therefore carry a greater population.
In the previous grade the teacher passed around a worksheet, and we had to choose which jobs were most suited to what gender.
Oh what a glorious whitebread bublefuck town I grew up in!
My second grade teacher taught us the civil war was because of a disagreement over state’s rights.
The same teacher marked me and a few other students down for completing a subtraction assignment using negative numbers. She explained we were supposed to be confused and write that we couldn’t do it.
Edit: I forgot one! My third grade teacher marked me down for not knowing how much a hen weighed. It wasn’t a joke. Apparently there was a rule of thumb for estimating chicken weight. Any kids who weren’t raised on a farm missed the question.

my mom didn’t want me playing pokemon because it “taught evolution”
Its weird cuz evolution in Pokemon is more akin to metamorposes or even just basic puberty except theres sometimes 1 extra step XD
